Hi,
You can't control another application from a browser as this would mean a huge security gap (:
I have done this before in another way, i created a windows application in VB and i created a UDP listener that listen to several commands, with those commands you can open other applications on the client or any other client side action. I put that executable inside startup to make sure it always runs on the background.
This way you can send a UDP messages from your controller to the client to open other applications that you can set on a position and on top on your current browser session.
If you know how to program inside VB i can share the source of this application so you can tweak it to your wishes. It already have a lot of listeners in it like show/hide keyboard etc.
I used it before we had client side scripting (.lp) so you might need to update some components due to new .Net versions. It's only for Windows clients.
BR,
Erwin
