Convert vbs code to jscript

I wanted to convert this visual basic script to JavaScript to embed in a web page.

I can call the vbs file from a link in the browser but that forces a diolog box that asks the user if they want to download or open the file.

The script is designed to run from a web page for w2k users to install network printers instead of using the standard windows add printer wizard.

I have not been able to find compatible code for the network printer objects.

***** sample code *********

'*** Set printer path
call SetPrinter("\\printserver\printername")
wscript.quit

'*** This subroutine installs and sets the default printer
Sub SetPrinter(ByVal PrinterPath)
DIM WshNetwork
Set WshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
WshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection(PrinterPath)

End Sub

******* end of code **********

i dont think JS can install printers...

<script language="JScript">
<!--
function SetPrinter(PrinterPath)
{
var WshNetwork=new ActiveXObject("WScript.Network");
WshNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection(PrinterPath);
}
//-->
</script>

<a href="#" onclick="SetPrinter('\\path\printerName');">Set Printer</a>


It will bring up an ActiveX alert in standard Internet Explorer. If you make this into an HTA, you won't get the error.
