  As far as I know, only .exe files can be started automatically from the 
autorun file.

  One way to do this, is to create a simple exe file, that, on load, will open 
a specific html file 

  That should do the trick.

  Hello:

       I hope this is a quick question. I am putting some webpages on a CD and 
want the CD to start the webpage when it is loaded into the PC. The code I 
tried for my autorun.inf file didn't start the page.

  [Autorun]
  open=tactilelib.htm

  I am trying to create some CDs that do not need to have software installed on 
a PC in order to run. Thank you.

  Regards,

  Robert Jaquiss
