I myself have no idea if this can be done, however this made me recall a
conversation with our old Web Designer. He said that Java Applets were
the only web technology that he could use to call on local applications,
all other stuff was a "server side" technology. So you could create a
Java Applet that upon initial access of the site would download and run
locally, then you could have buttons that would call the local
applications or on websites. But again, I have no idea.
