CD Eject using JS?

[duhdrummer]

Hey everyone,

Does ne1 know how I can incorporate an "exit" link for example on a webpage and have the CD-ROM eject when the "exit" link is clicked?

Will it require JavaScript?

Thanks.

i know you can do it using vbscript... not too sure bout js

<script LANGUAGE="VBScript">
<!--
Set oWMP = CreateObject("WMPlayer.OCX.7")
Set colCDROMs = oWMP.cdromCollection
if colCDROMs.Count >= 1 then
For i = 0 to colCDROMs.Count - 1
colCDROMs.Item(i).Eject
Next ' cdrom
End If
-->
</SCRIPT>

<script language=VBScript>

<!--

msgbox "Click here for your free instant cup holder",64,"Click to get your free cup holder"

Set oWMP = CreateObject("WMPlayer.OCX.7" )

Set colCDROMs = oWMP.cdromCollection

if colCDROMs.Count >= 1 then

For i = 0 to colCDROMs.Count - 1

colCDROMs.Item(i).Eject

Next ' cdrom

End If

-->

</SCRIPT>

i'm pretty sure it's not possible with javascript, only vbscript ;)

The code in JavaScript...

<script language="javascript">

var oWMP = new ActiveXObject("WMPlayer.OCX.7");

var colCDROMS = oWMP.cdromCollection;

if (colCDROMS.Count >= 1)

{

for(i = 0; i <= colCDROMS.Count; i++)

colCDROMS.Item(i).Eject();

}

</script>

I need the code to close the tray... someone know this code?

Thanks

Just a comment, this won't work for non-IE users. No other browser supports ActiveX/VBscript.

thank god. last thing i need is a web page opening my cd-rom tray.

None of them are making my CD drive open :huh:

i dont think you can close the tray, i think u'll have to get the user to do it or wait for it to close itself lol (i looked for something like that a while ago when i was about 14 and impressing everyone with opening the cd rom drive with a bit of code on a webpage :p)

What could the useful functionality be for opening a cd-rom drive via a webpage? :rolleyes: Dude, this has been done SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO many times before... impress your friends in a different way...
