I want to put a set of web pages on a CD. I'd like to have the first page load automatically when the CD is inserted into the computer. I'd like this to work for Mac and PC. Is there an easy way to do this?
Jayne: Well... I don't like the idea of someone hearin' what I'm thinkin'. Inara: No one likes the idea of hearing what you're thinking.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Can't do it on a Mac. The best you can do is open a folder.

Huh. So is the linked info incorrect, out of date, or misleading?

It was possible in OS 9, but not OS X.

I've used autorun shareware to do that, although the program I used appears to no longer exist. It created a self-extracting .exe file.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Urgh. My brain is fried so I'm going home. But... does anyone know if it's possible in Visual Studio .NET to find unbalanced '{ }' brackets? Or is there some sort of third-party tool that can do this? Or a perl script?
Somewhere in 4124 lines of code I am missing a '}' (JavaScript is the language, but since it is a 'C-like' language I figure there's gotta be something....) The IE debugger just tell me it expects a '}' at the last line of code.

So, is $98 CDN a fair price for a 80G hard drive, and dare I try installing one myself?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Sounds okay to me. Hard drives are easy to install.
