What do you want to achieve? Run an executable on the client when a user clicks a button?

Right, a 5.
Trying to run anything on client side is bad thing in principle. It won't work on all platforms, and even if it can work on some, it would be even worse, as it will break all the safety to nothing. Who would ever trust such sites?
