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 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)

    • I have always found it funny when people think in Black and White. Windows is my choice of OS, and I understand it and somewhat like it. However, I don't blindly accept or like all of it. Heck, Windows 11 is a dogs breakfast, just as Win10 was, and basically Microsoft's past 10+ years of direction. Having said that, Linux certainly has its place. And while this isn't an attack on Linux, I think the people who blindly think Linux is the answer are just as bad as blinded Windows users, if not worse. Windows is attacked for being "basic" and "bland", as is MacOS in many situations. There's a good reason they are basic and bland, and its partly why they're so popular. They targeting a broad audience. People who use their PC as a tool for work and casual browsing, or right up to people who game or programming stuff. It also needs to be robust, and hard to break. Windows has come a long way with that since the 9x days, and while still has a few vulnerabilities, it's unlikely to be unusable or unstable by messing with some settings. I however managed to destroy the stability of a Ubuntu desktop within an hour (not deliberately, I was trying to get a custom UI), and struggled to recover from it just by changing a few settings. Stupid I know, but it was so easy to break. That is why Linux can't be mainstream in its current form.
    • I mean at this point, why even have a desktop? Just open a browser window full screen and send her to her homepage. Access to anything she needs right there. Could be on Linux, could be on Android, heck could also be on Windows 11. No one would know!
    • Will be replacing my last 2 Windows 10 PC's in household ASAP, if they could upgrade now i've done it already. Main Desktop runs Windows 11 already, that ones all set. Now just to get the other 2 all set asap
