Browse WebApp Here

It's all Dominick's fault. He pointed me at this blog entry. After I'd downloaded this I realised it wasn't what I thought, very cool, but not what I was expecting.

I was expecting this to be a 'Run Cassini and browse to the default page' web extension and as it wasn't I decided to write my own.

The code is available here. The zip comes with a .reg file that you need to edit to include the fully qualified path the the executable, the readme.txt shows and example. After it is installed you should be able to right click on a folder and see this .
Select 'Browse Web Application Here' and Cassini should start and a browser page should be opened connecting to the web site. You will need Visual Studio 2005 installed (Cassini is shipped with VS 2005).
