What are I want with two files?
1. The MYBROWSER.HTM file mus be call MYBROWSER.HTA file.
THE FILENAME ORIGINATED BY FUNCTION:
<script>
function doIt()
{
frames['ifr'].location.href=document.f1.link.value;
}
</script>
must be opened in the <iframe> of mybrowser.hta (frmClient).
Automatically and always the mybrowser.htm must open Mybrowser.hta
Many Thankx

Why not just link directly to the .hta file?
If you have different names and such - just grab the location.href and break it down however you want
Though honestly I have no clue what you are asking - here is what I do know though.
1) you are not going to auto open an HTA from a server - ever - its always going to go through the user, and ask them if you want to open it.
2) if you need it to work in anything other than IE - forget it
3) Your forward and back buttons are going to be pretty much useless
4) Dont use an HTA unless you have some very specific reason to need that extra power, that is worth the amount of time you are going to have to spend explaining what is so different about .hta to users.
5) Also recognize that some users will have programs on their computer that will not allow an HTA file to run, even if they have IE, ever.
(I also happen to love HTAs :))
