Credit to Jeronimo at bfmods.com for this.

You can now just launch any server from a url.

1. download the file below and extract the 'start_bf1942.vbs' file to your Battlefield 1942 install directory (where the bf1942.exe is)

http://www.is82.com/files/start_bf1942.rar

3. Run the .vbs file once. You should get "Installation successful."
4. You can now connect to bf42 servers directly from your browser by clicking a link to a URL with the following pattern:

bf1942://ip:port/modname

like this one below for the is82 server

bf1942://158.69.59.75:14567/interstate
