Distribution for Microsoft Internet Explorer

Distribution for Microsoft Internet Explorer

For users of Microsoft® Internet Explorer version 3.0 and later, create a link on your Web page to the .cab file. When users load the Web page, the control and plug-in will be downloaded, installed, and registered automatically. To create a .cab file, download the CAB tools and enter the following at a command prompt:

diamond /f OtherCard.ddf

Next, modify the HTML on your Web page. For example:

<html>

<head>
<title>Standard Other Card Install</title>
</head>

<OBJECT id=paySelector classid="clsid:9DAE9125-0C35-11D0-8EEA-00A0C9054334"
        codebase="http://servername/othercard.cab#Version=1,0,0,0001"
        width=300 height=250 >
    <PARAM Name="AcceptedTypes"
        Value="visa:clear;mastercard:clear;amex:clear;othercard:clear" >
    <PARAM Name="Total" Value="134.50" >
</OBJECT>

Alternatively, create a link that allows the user to explicitly download the Other Card plug-in:

<BODY>
<h2> <align=center><a href="othercard.cab">Install Other Card DLL</a> </h2>
</body>

</html>
