Everyone knows that you can have an html-page as desktop background in Win 98 and put links to websites in that html-page.

But is it possible to create links to other html-files (on the hard drive), that would open as a desktop background. In that way it would be easy to change background by only clicking a link on the desktop.

Is is somehow possible to do this with ASP-pages? Win98 doesn't seem to allow ASP-files as desktop background, but is it possible to tweak this somehow?

The thing is that I have an html-file as background, in which I have a JavaScript that randomly selects a jpeg-file as background every time the desktop reloads (F5). I'd like to be able to manually select which jpeg to show, with either hyperlinks or a drop down menu. Does anyone know how to do this?

The file I use is here: http://fixtheflash.tripod.com/desktop/random.htm
