You probably want to investigate the /usr/bin/hdiutil command line utility which can attach, mount, and verify disk images. I also recommend looking into the NSWorkspace API, specifically the - [NSWorkspace openFile: withApplication:] method which you'll find very useful for kicking off the Installer. Good luck!

If so, you can use theObjective-C DOM API to attach native event listeners, and to injectcustom events. Alternately, you can use the Objective-C _javascript_ bindings to export a custom native object to _javascript_, and call thatfrom event listeners defined in script or using onxxx handlers. Youcould also use the _javascript_ bindings to call _javascript_ functionsthat dispatch custom events. Which way works better will depend on the details of your application.Regards,Maciej _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev Next Message by Date: click to view message previewRe: Auto-launch installer after download dmgYou may want to look especially at the "internet-enable" option, which provides some of the magic you're describing.-RobOn Dec 10, 2007 5:11 PM, Kevin Decker < kdecker@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:On Dec 10, 2007, at 2:07 AM, Bill Patterson wrote: > I've got a installer on a dmg, that when downloaded by Safari 3.04,> automatically mounts the dmg and launches the installer.>> I'd like to reproduce this in my WebKit based application.

I'd like to reproduce this in my WebKit based application. Are there functions that do this? I haven't specified anything on the dmg to select the installer, so I'm assuming the OS is detecting there is one installer and running it? I'd like to understand this mechanism better. Are there docs out there for this?
