Launch Windows Explorer from Internet Explorer

Is it possible to launch Windows Explorer to show a spec开发者_C百科ific folder by clicking on a link on my page?

Thank you

No, I'm afraid it's not possible to do so in exactly the way you describe. If you want to emulate that sort of functionality you'd need to buy/build an ActiveX control to make it happen.

It's possible using the File URI Scheme.

But there's no real way to guarantee your client has the directory on their machine. Or that their browser will support the scheme (Firefox and Chrome do not support this).
