Is there a tutorial on how to launch an Adobe AIR application from a browser?

Is there any tutorial on how to launch (not install, but launch the application \ launch a call with parameters) Adobe AIR application from browser (on button click in flash application using JS function or ever)?

Blog articles or any other material ...

If you edit the tags in the XML settings of your AIR application, it should be able to load when a link is clicked on your site.

I would guess it would be a sandbox violation if there is no listener listening on a specific url or javascript call like iTunes and its web links launching iTunes.



Without that, I'm sure there will be a lot of malware launchers on your computer.

Have you tried using the icon installer? An icon installer is a piece of flash memory that you put on a web page and when the user clicks on it, it installs the given AIR application (and runtime, if needed). However, I believe that if the app is already installed then clicking the icon installer simply launches the app. So the same Flash snippet will install the app for everyone who doesn't have it, and launch the app for the people who do it.

The tutorial is here .

Edit: I am assuming that you are trying to launch an application that the user has already installed. If you want to use an app for a user and run it without installing, then as pinnaclear says, this is definitely not possible.
