I have a web page that I use to link to other data on a CD. The file name is
index.html. I tell clients to double-click on index.html to see the options.
How can I have the page open when the CD is inserted?

With an autorun.inf file placed on the CD outside of the web.

open notepad and enter:

[AUTORUN]
shellexecute=index.html

save it with the file name Autorun.inf

If index.html is inside a folder it would then be
shellexecute=foldername\index.html

Also, some machines need a shellrun.exe file for this to work.
