Create an executable from HTML files

Aurélien -  
Hello,

I want to create an executable from the files that make up an HTML application.

Let me explain:
my project involves making an HTML application for a client. They want me to provide them simply with an executable and not the whole folders and files that make up the application.

Could you please help me? Do you know any software? Because I don't see how I can create this executable.

Thank you.

    you can create self-extracting files with winzip

    or alternatively, software like installshield allows you to create an installation

      Hello,
      You can rename the page index.html to index.hta and then you will have an executable HTML application.

      Best regards,

        Hello, I'm informing you that it's not possible to give an executable to your HTML pages. HTML is not a compiled language; it doesn't use a compiler but an interpreter for HTML tags.
        But apparently with VB.NET, we can create compiled web applications (the executable).
        If you find the opposite of what I've said, please inform me at diallo35@hotmail.com.
        Good luck, Aurelien.

          Hello,

          Type "html executable" in Google, you will find your solution.

          I have known this software since its first versions, I have lost track of it a bit since then.

          I just searched for the site: www.htmlexe.com/

          See you later

              well, I tell you it's possible
              use the ebook or html exe software...
              you don't want to program to do it
              otherwise, if you want to program, it's possible too. for example, with C or C++ you can do it using a webbrowser type widget
