Is there a way to open a javascript link in IE?

Question

I have a link that uses javascript to submit a form, for example:

<a href="javascript:document.some_form.submit()">some link</a>

However, this will point to the vendor-supplied application, which, of course, only works in IE. Is there a way to open this link in IE if the user uses a different browser?

Answer 1

Without putting the compiled code on the user machine, more than likely not. This will require you to tell os for a specific program and violate the security restrictions that (and should) be on most browsers on the market today.
