Good morning, everyone !

Next, I have a very simple HTML code, where I have an image linked to a link from a local application in the company (the application is web) or when I click on the image the page automatically redirects me to the web application page, however, this application can only be opened in Chrome, and some users of the company have the explorer as default browser, it is possible for me to make this link linked to the image make it open a page in Chrome ?

Below is the line of the current code (where you have XX.XX.X.X is the IP of the web application):

<article class="thumb">
<a href="http://XX.XXX.X.X/GEOQ" ><target=”_blank”><class="image"><img src="images/thumbs/01.jpg" alt="" height="150" width="225" /></a>
<h2>GEOQ</h2>
<p>Sistema de não conformidades.</p>
</article>

By security it is no longer possible for a browser to access other applications within your operating system. Unless the goal is to get some file or access read devices, the browser cannot run programs.

You can leave a warning on the page as to which browser can access the application, but it would be right to try to investigate why an application only runs on Google Chrome.

  • I got it, it’s because the programmer who sold the software made it mastered pro Chrome and with dependencies on it ( I also didn’t think it was right but do what the board tells us to obey ) I thought about leaving a warning too but our users are very amateur and are not attentive, still will ignore the message open in the wrong browser and open called with IT complaining of not working, so I thought in opening an external application inside the code of the intranet

  • @Rafaelxaviersuarez you can do a javascript check and when the site is not accessed by google Chrome, redirects to a static page talking about the mandatory use in google Chrome
