anyweb Posted November 10, 2008 Report post Posted November 10, 2008 What is a HTA ? The term HTA is actually an acronym: it’s short for HTML Application. For our purposes an HTA is nothing more than a way to provide a graphical user interface for your scripts. As we’ve already noted, neither WSH nor VBScript provide much in the way of graphical user interface elements: no check boxes, no list boxes, no nothing. Internet Explorer, however, makes use of all of these elements - and more. Because an HTA leverages Internet Explorer, you can take advantage of all these graphical user interface elements when writing system administration scripts. (And, yes, we’re going to show you how to do just that.)How closely related are HTML files and HTAs? Well, take any HTML file and change the file extension from .htm (or .html) to .hta. Congratulations: you’ve just created your first HTA.Where Can I get some HTA’s ? check out the samples below:- The CM12 BitLocker HTA CM12 in a Lab -The CM12 BitLocker FrontEnd HTA - video CM12 in a Lab - The CM12 BitLocker FrontEnd HTA Introducing the BitLocker FrontEnd HTAMultipurpose HTA with BitLocker Support for all three common scenarios, backup, reinstall, new computerWindows-noob Front Endright here !SCCM Operating System Deployment – Front-end HTA -http://joshuasmueller.wordpress.com/2010/06/15/sccm-operating-system-deployment-front-end-hta/Johan ArwidMarks' Pretty Good Frontend - http://prettygoodfro...d.codeplex.com/ hi Johan !!Maik Koster's Pretty Good Frontend Clone - http://myitforum.com...ntendclone.aspxLocation Deployment wizard from the deployment guys hereResourceshere's a good resource on myitforum with hta files to make the deployment more user friendlyhttp://www.myitforum...ew.asp?id=11652.
