Question

HTML Applications (HTA) and ColdFusion

Is there a way to use an HTA file to launch a ColdFusion application? I'm looking to present my CF application more like a Windows application versus a web site. If not HTA, what other options might I consider?

I've tried using an IFRAME in the HTA file, but that just returns some of the source code, not the rendered page.

    I modified the web.mxml file to recognize the hta extension, and it loads as a web page in Internet Explorer, but I can't click the hta file to launch the application using Microsoft's HTML Application host, I still just get the source code.

    Of course. I did it a few years ago. i don't really recall the format,
    but it was fairly simple.
