title: open virtual keyboard from chrome (osk.exe)
body: <p>It's one of these questions again (execute local.exe file from chrome web browser).</p>
  
  <p>I know that this is not possible (at least not in an easy way)</p>
  
  <p>What I want to do is to open the virtual keyboard on windows machines stored in the folder</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>c:/windows/system32/osk.exe</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I know that the simple </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="file:///C:/Windows/system32/osk.exe"&gt;Run virtual keyborad&lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Don't work (for obvious reasons). </p>
  
  <p>So how can I make it work? If its not possible to do this, how can I solve this issue? I really need to be able to open a virtual keyboard by clicking on a link on my webpage. </p>
  
  <p>Any other virtual keyboards that I can make use of that the user don't have to download in order to make use of it through my web-page?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Specs</strong></p>
  
  <p>I will run my website in kiosk mode (in chrome) using a 27" Acer touch monitor (there will be no physical keyboard), running on a windows7 computer. I'm using Wamp as my webserver, I.E the webpage is accessed through a local network.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance =)</p>
