HTML to EXE Windows compiler with functions?

is there a compiler for windows in which the GUI is created with HTML, but it still supports major functions like networking (FTP), opening files and editing them ... [like c++ but the DISPLAY is HTML]? THANKS

I don't know if this is exactly what you want, but MS offers Hypertext Applications (hta's) that basically do this:

Essentially, it's just like designing a web page. You use HTML/CSS for layout, then javascript/etc. to provide functionality. Save the file with a .hta extension and windows will render it using IE. There's a bit more to it, but it's not terribly complicated, and the link above does a really good job of getting you started quickly.


Good luck, hope this was helpful...
