    Running VB.Net App Through a Browser

    Hi,
    I once saw a thread on running a .Net Windows Application through a
    browser on a system with the .Net framework installed. However I can't find
    any resources on that. Does anyone have any links to example apps that do
    this? I imagine in the years to come most systems will have .Net installed
    on them and I want to get a jumpstart on using this technology. Thanks!
    Ken.

    Hi Ken,

    This is always what you call a Window application. As we talking about that
    in this newsgroup, you can not run a .New Window application using a
    browser.

    You can use .Net webform applications using a browser and you can use .Net
    Window forms applications using the Internet.

    It sounds maybe for you the same, but there is a big difference.
    The frist applicatons work like webbrowser pages, the second ones are
    applications on the user computer which comunincate using Internet.

    I hope this make something clear to you.

      It's called Zero Deployment. I have sometimes heard it refer to as No-touch
      Deployment.

      In very simple terms, you put your executable and libraries at an URL which
      you launch via the web browser.
      There are limitations as to what the application can do. For an example
      application, see http://www.sellsbrothers.com/wahoo/

      You can also search google using terms like "zero deployment .net example"

        Hi Richard,

        That is in my eyes not running an application through a browser, this can be
        even more dangerous (just in computer thinking) to use than installing an
        activeX component.

        Just a thought,
