You would have to write a PHP code that verifies the IP of the computer, and if it matches the admin IP it would display a link that goes to FrontPage (like C:...frontpage/frontpage.exe. The problem is it would only open FrontPage; it won't load the page they are viewing in FrontPage. Kind of defeats the purpose. But you can make a link that only appears to an admin <img src="https://www.webmaster-forums.net/misc/smileys/smile.png" title="Smiling" alt="Smiling" class="smiley-content" /></p> Tue, 25 Apr 2006 22:09:24 +0000 teammatt3 comment 1198366 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/serverside-scripting/open-file-and-specify-editor#comment-1198310 <p>It's for administrative purposes and i know that the only people that need to use it have Frontpage.</p> Tue, 25 Apr 2006 11:13:12 +0000 Don Logan comment 1198310 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/serverside-scripting/open-file-and-specify-editor#comment-1198306 <p>The big problem there is that many people will not have frontpage, dreamweaver etc. In fact there are many editors out there so how will you know which one to open it with? This could involve having to query the visitors hard drive to look for installed programmes, and that brings up all sorts of privacy issues, not to mention firewall warnings flashed up. </p> <p>Why not give instructions to visitors to save as? What is the end goal of them opening up the page in an editor?</p> Tue, 25 Apr 2006 09:38:36 +0000 OldWelshGuy comment 1198306 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net
