Hello,
I have found you can actualy execute an HTA with some commandline
with the commandLine attribute.
I was wondering if it was possible to lauch an HTA with some arguments
from a web page within IE.
That would be the command to open the HTA
<A HREF="query\QueryViewer.hta">580</A>
This actualy work and open the HTA, but it would be really cool if I
could pass arguments

As far as I can recall you can't do this. However you may be able to use the
Shell.Application.Windows method to get a reference back to the instance of
IE that launched it.

Here's an example: I'm using the HTA just as a host for a page within an
iframe, so I'm passing the
querystring parameter along to that page. The hosted page gets the HTA
privs.

Yes, but that's hosting HTML page within an HTA. The poster asked about
launching an HTA from within an HTML page and passing querystring
parameters.

Tim Williams (Theravance) GuestMy System SpecsRe: HTML webpage within IE loagin HTA with agruments
Joe,
I just posted an example I had on hand.
There's no requirement for the HTA to contain a hosted iframe - it's
just as easy to do this:
var qs = window.location.search.substring(1) + "";
alert("Passed parameter: " + qs); //or do something more
interesting with it...
After all, an HTA is really just mostly a regular HTML page: it just
runs in a different environment.
