Howto - run "c" executable from html page using jquery
I want to access a "c" executable from my html page. ie: I want to call "helloworld" through a "javascript" function such as:
- .......
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function runHelloWorld() {
CODE TO CALL => /$PATH/helloworld
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="javascript:runHelloWorld()">Run Hello World </a>
</body
.......
I have seen discussions re: "network.protocol-handler.app" but all the talk and examples are regarding "Windows" with ActiveX (which I know
nothing about). I use Ubuntu 14.10 with firefox.
Would appreciate if anyone could give me an example using Linux w/ jquery, php, AJAX or whatever.
Thanks,
