Situation:-
I have created a installation setup(local) that returns a URL eg:- ved.test.com which is mapped to an IP 11.22.33.44.
Thus to make the web application accessible after installation, user has to make an entry in the hosts file under C:WINNTsystem32driversetc directory explicitly.
Approach:-
After the installation application gets completed, application writes the file using Javascript.
Problem:-
Writing a File using Javascript is supported in IE. I need a Solution for Firefox.
Code used:-
<html xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml>
<head>
<meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html; charset=utf-8 />
<title>Write To A File</title>
<script language=javascript>
function WriteToFile()
{
/* The below statement is supported in IE only */
var fso = new ActiveXObject(Scripting.FileSystemObject);
var s = fso.CreateTextFile(C:\Test.txt, true);
s.WriteLine('IE Supports Me!');
s.Close();
}
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad=WriteToFile()>
</body>
</html>
