double function

Hi

I need to put an image in a html file.

By clicking this image, it will run 2 functions.
One to call a program , and two, to cloce this browser and open a new one.

How can I do this??

I am not using servlets (which can solve this problem I thk), and I am using only simple html context.

Is tyhere a way to use java script (onclick)?

Yes you can read an image from a local drive, but as no-one else will have the image on their local system they will only see a broken image.

Other than that, you cannot access files on a client machine.
The most you could do is create a link to the path of a know program, say notepad or word, where you expect it to be in a particular place on most peoples machine.
