  Below lists an entire object as it might appear within your HTML. IntraLaunch is extremely versatile, and can be used in all kinds of different ways via Javascript or VBScript including the ability to have text links, drop-down boxes with a list of documents to open, radio button application selection, animated and mouseover graphics/gifs, Flash support, etc. can all execute applications. This simply shows all the different param values that are possible. For a complete demonstration on IntraLaunch's functionality including how to script it, please see the HTML source code for the sample site included with the trial archive. The summary in PDF format also has an example for each parameter. A lot of parameters have a corresponding tech page with operation details and in-depth examples.

   Also see the macros IntraLaunch understands to access additional functions such as shutting down the computer, opening the control panel, printer folder, wizards, etc.

   Also see the variables IntraLaunch understands to automatically have critical system paths replaced within certain parameters.

   Also see the functions page for a list of public Javascript functions that may help you.

   The following table is a complete list of all possible parameters which could be used in the example object above plus and a brief description.

Parameter Name Parameter Description
ImageLoc Image Location - Set to "Local" if your ImageSrc will be a standard DOS path such as C:\Graphics\icon.gif or "Remote" if your ImageSrc will be a URL such as http://intranet.company.com/icons1.gif. Can be "Null" if object will be accessed via scripting.
"Remote", "Local", "NULL"
ImageSrc Image Source - Location of graphic whether jpg, gif or bmp, path or URL. Can be "NULL" if object will be accessed via scripting.
Full DOS Path, Full URL, "NULL"
Run Program to Execute - Path to exe, com, lnk, etc. Can be a macro for special functions. Can be "Null" if object will be given program to run via scripting - see Tech Help on web site.
DOS Path, URL to Exe, Macro, "NULL"
RunParms Execution Switches - Typical switches for program. Such as /a /e, file.doc, etc.
Command Line Switches
DefDir Default Directory - Working directory to switch to before executing program. Often ignored by the program.
Full DOS Path
Display Display - How to execute program. NORM and ACTIVATE are quite similar. MINBG and NORM_NA run minimized or normal but are initially set inactive.
"MAX", "MIN", "HIDE", "NORM",
"ACTIVATE", "MINBG", "NORM_NA"
UsePassword UsePassword - Whether to prompt for a password before running the program.
"True", "False"
Password Encrypted Password - Encrypted password to use with UsePassword, encrypted with PwdGen.exe.
Password in Encrypted Form
Sound Sound - Sound to play. If no sound card is available no sound will be heard. No error message will pop up.
DOS Path to WAV File
Pause Pause - Pause this number of seconds before running the program.
Integer
ALTInfo Alternative Text - Specifies ALT text to display under the mouse upon mouse hover.
Text
IsURL IsURL - If this is "True", then the Run param should be set to a normal URL/web address. This essentially makes IntraLaunch act like a normal web link, as if IntraLaunch didn't exist. Useful for attaching sound events, passwords, etc. to normal web site links.
"True", "False"
RecallApp Recall Application - If you click an object twice, IntraLaunch would normally run two instances. This simply checks to see if your app is already running and if so bring it to the foreground instead of running a new instance. You need the Classname (XLMAIN for this example) of your app - you can use ShowClass.exe to find it.
Classname
AndRestore AndRestore - If your using RecallApp, and the app to refocus is minimized, this will restore it to a viewable state on the screen.
"True", "False"
MapDrive MapDrive - If Run is set to IntraLaunch:MapDrive, IntraLaunch will map H: to \\server\publicshare when clicked using the LogPass param information for a password. Separator is a pipe.
\\server\share|X:
LogPass Loging/Password Details - Use the password "password" when mapping the drive specified in MapDrive. If the share requires a login, then the first field becomes the login, and second field becomes the password.
Password|Null|Null
AutoMap AutoMap - Automatically try to map the drive specified in MapDrive as soon as this IntraLaunch object initializes. Useful to map a drive in the background when the web page loads. Instead, you could also have the Javascript event onLoad() call an object when the web page loads.
"True", "False"
CDRelative CDRelative Path - See ChangeLog for more information. IntraLaunch can be used to build CD-Rom front ends. Set this to a file to find on a CD such as "\IntraLaunch\IntraLaunch.CAB", and when the user views the web page IntraLaunch will go cycle through the CD-Roms on the system to find the CD with this file, then execute all application relative to this CD-Rom drive letter using *:\ for all param values instead of a fixed drive letter. Also see CD-Example in Tech Help on the web site.
Full Path from Root
ProcessErr Process Error - If the execution of the program fails, display a custom message box, jump to a web page, or install the application. Details for each function are specified in param "ErrAction".
"MessageBox", "OpenPage", "Install"
ErrAction Error Action Details - If ProcessErr is set to "MessageBox" then this should be set to "Window Title|Message". If set to "OpenPage", this should be a URL to go to. If set to "Install", this should be a URL like http://intranet.company.com/Install.cfg which has details on what and where to install certain files. An Install.cfg example is included with the archive. See ChangeLog for more information.
BoxTitle|BoxMessage, URL, URL to Install.cfg
FocusOver FocusOver - If enabled, the given object will appear with a pressed look when in focus. Useful if you're depending on the keyboard a lot. Does not apply for scripted objects.
"True", "False"
Log Log Path - If a path is specified, all executions for the given object will be logged in this log file. Data logged includes date, time, username, workstation name, program and switches, and success or failure.
DOS Path to File
OnTop If set to True, the program executed is set to always visible, so it's seen even when inactive. Requires IntraLaunch 4.5 and higher. Requires Windows2000 and higher.
"True", "False"
Translucent If set to a number between 1 and 255, the program executed has its appearance set to a translucent state which allows other windows or the desktop behind it to still be viewable. Requires IntraLaunch 4.5 and higher. Requires Windows2000 and higher. A value of 1 sets to transparent, 255 sets to normal. Several programs ignore this.
Value of 1 - 255
RunAs Execute the program specified in Run under a different user. Format is username,password,domain name/computer name. If password is "Prompt" then IntraLaunch will prompt for the users password first. IntraLaunch 4.6 and Windows2000 and higher required.
Username,Password,DomainName
Delay Delay - IntraLaunch can execute a second application after the first one from the parameter Run finishes. Specifying Wait tells IntraLaunch to first execute the program from Run, then wait until it finishes and is closed, then run the program specified in the parameter Delay_Run. If the first program from Run fails, then the program in Delay_Run will not be called. To execute Delay_Run even if Run fails, use WaitContinue. In either case, the program specified in Run must be an application executable, or a macro. It cannot be an associated file such as letter.doc.
"Wait", "WaitContinue", "False"
Delay_Run Second Appliction - What to execute after the first application finishes. Requires Delay parameter to be specified. Path to exe, com, lnk, etc. Can be a macro for special functions. See Tech Help on web site.
DOS Path, Macro
Delay_RunParms Switches - Switches for delayed program. Such as /a /e, file.doc, etc.
Command Line Switches
Delay_DefDir Delay Default Directory - This can be safe left as nothing most of the time. Most applications ignore it.
DOS Path to File
Delay_Sound Delay Sound - Sound to play when delayed application launches. If no sound card is available no sound will be heard. No error message will pop up.
DOS Path to WAV File
Delay_Display Delay Display - How to execute delayed program. "NORM" and "ACTIVATE" are quite similar.
"MAX", "MIN", "HIDE", "NORM", "ACTIVATE", "MINBG"
Delay_ProcessErr Delay Process Error - If the execution of the delayed program fails, display a custom message box or jump to a web page. Details for each function are specified in parameter Delay_ErrAction.
"MessageBox", "OpenPage"
Delay_ErrAction Delay Error Action - If Delay_ProcessErr is set to "MessageBox" then this should be set to "Window Title|Message". If set to "OpenPage", this should be a URL to go to.
BoxTitle|BoxMessage, URL
Delay_RecallApp Delay Recall Application - Application to bring into foreground if already running. You need the Classname of the app - you can use ShowClass.exe to find it. See the tech help on the web site for more information.
Classname
Delay_AndRestore Delay AndRestore - If your using Delay_RecallApp, and the app to refocus is minimized, this will restore it to a viewable state on the screen.
"True", "False"
Delay_OnTop If set to True, the program executed is set to always visible, so it's seen even when inactive. Requires IntraLaunch 4.5 and higher. Requires Windows2000 and higher.
"True", "False"
Delay_Translucent If set to a number between 1 and 255, the program executed has its appearance set to a translucent state which allows other windows or the desktop behind it to still be viewable. Requires IntraLaunch 4.5 and higher. Requires Windows2000 and higher. A value of 1 sets to transparent, 255 sets to normal. Several programs ignore this.
Value of 1 - 255
