Is there any chance there is a program just like .hta applications only it supports HTML5, CSS3, jQuery, etc? I'd love to be able to run my local files without chrome...

Anybody know if this exists? Maybe even some way to make .hta application fully support those programming languages?

  • just found , but that is ie, if there is a way for the functionality of chrome that'd be even better – Fin Apr 08 '17 at 04:29

    HTAs use IE's Trident rendering engine. There's no way to switch it out for another one. Which "functionality of chrome" were you hoping for, anyway? If your HTA can use the latest IE engine, there's not a huge amount to choose between them. HTML5, CSS3, jQuery as you mentioned should all work. – ADyson Apr 08 '17 at 04:36

This gives functionality of edge into a .HTA file.

Very handy!

  • Doubtful. This has nothing to do with Edge. See http://stackoverflow.com/q/6771258/306930 and http://stackoverflow.com/q/11727815/306930 and https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/ms536496(v=vs.85).aspx – conio May 05 '17 at 13:19
