I recently discovered how to, using <A HREF="telnet://system"> tags, tell browsers to launch telnet applications. And, with all of the "Internet Cafe's" opening up, that only have browsers of various makes, I decided to offer telnet access.
However, if you want to use this page, you must have your browser options set up properly.
In Netscape, setting Options, General Preferences, Apps, Telnet Application is required. While in MSIE and, I presume, other browsers, you don't need to set any options, you just need to, on your system, associate whatever program you want with telnet URIs. Most telnet clients will automatically associate themselves with telnet URIs.
