Openl JNLP/web start app from browser

Question

I have a browser with my application running on it and I have one JNLP application installed on my system. So from browser how do we launch the installed JNLP application.

I know we cannot do it from JavaScript/jquery.

So is there any plugin/extension that will do my work. Or can I write some kind of plugin/extension for browser that will invoke my JNLP application.

If Yes how do i proceed?

If you want to run anything Natively, you need to use NPAPI. That allows you to run code outside the sandbox for your extensions.
