Java Forum / General / April 2007web start
Hello all, I am trying to install my first web start program into my web page. When I click on the link to the jnlp file, instead of trying to run it it asks what do I want to do with it. This is obviously wrong and I'd be grateful for any suggestions. Ivan >Hello all, I am trying to install my first web start program into my web >page.

Your comment below (works for other JNLP) makes me think it is a server configuration problem.* >>>..instead of trying to run >>>it it asks what do I want to do with it.

Hello clever dicks, I had indeed been led to this but knew not what to do with it. I have no idea what a server is in this case. Ivan >> (Ivan) >>>> ...why does my browser work ok with other people's web [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > do > with it. I have no idea what a server is in this case. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_server Presumably, you've paid someone so that the URL http://ivand.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/myw3/ points to your homepage. Contact the people you've paid for help on configuring your server. - Oliver .. >Hello clever dicks, Hi dumb a.s*, > I had indeed been led to this but knew not what to do >with it. The smart thing to do at that point, would have been to research it, as suggested by Oliver, or to *ask*, rather than make comments about your browser. If you figure how to ask 'smart questions' I might decide to help you in future, but for the moment I wil waste no further time on you. >I have no idea what a server is in this case. You will probably remain unenlightened, with the way you're going. * As an aside, I'd prefer to be a 'clever dick', than a 'dumb a.s'.
