My software creates UPS, FedEx, USPS shipping labels and is a MS Windows based application that is installed on a windows workstations. My application has API/COM objects registered locally on each workstation. I need to call my API/COM EXE from a web page (internet explorer) that a user has up on there local workstation and if the API is registered locally . Call my my API/COM and it will pop-up and allow the user to ship an order and return a string to you. Your job will be to create an interface using your web language of choice to call my windows API and my API will return a string to you. You don't have to do anything with the string except show me that it's stored in a variable when returned. Provide a sample for others that want to call my API from a web page. Steps required by you: 1. Create an instance of my API 2. Call the function FRT_HEADER() with appropriate parameters (ship-to address) provided in our API document. 3. Call the FRT_TRANS() function with appropriate parameters (Line items to ship) 4. Call the FRT_COMMT() function which tells our API to process the shipment 5. Wait and receive the returned value from the API and store into a variable. Provide me with a working sample and a page of documentation on how to use your code. My application can be downloaded from here: http:\\[login to view URL]\[login to view URL] After installation my API's will be automatically registered on the windows workstation. Sample Jscript call to my API: // 1. Create an instance of the COM Object x = [login to view URL]( "[login to view URL]" ); // 2. Create the ship-to address header x.frt_header( "Gary", "TEST COMP", "32808 Alderbrk", "", "Wildomar", "CA", "92595", "9096784545", "USA", "UPS GRNC", "", "VERBAL", "11221", "ACP1", 5, 1, true); // 3. Add any line items to be shipped. x.frt_trans_tax("T125","ITEM1","Sample Item ",1,5,10,5,1,0,5,7.25) // 4. Commit the transaction to Freight+ Shipping System and process. x.frt_commit_get(); You can also download the COM/API documentation here: http:\\[login to view URL]\docs\[login to view URL] We are available to help with installation and demonstration of our product to developers.

I have +10 years of experience in programming. I got your consideration about calling API locally on your machine not on web server. I am expert in web programming. I can easily make a script to sniff web server for user requests and run them locally on your machine and return response to web server. In this way, you have your service protectd locally and users can access to that and you can allow them to use that remotely with their browser. Let's discuss more in details if you are interested please. Thanks, Helmot
