How will you open the VB6 window app with JavaScript? Or is that also a question? If you want to do this from JavaScript in an HTML page, then there is no way around it. If you are using JavaScript with Windows Scripting Host, this is possible. – Abbas Dec 21 '11 at 08:20

Javascript runs in your browser which is isolated from your System. You can not simply pass values from your browser to another application.
What you can do is create a REST API.

You create a simple http server and send ajax requests from your webpage to your program. – PiTheNumber Dec 21 '11 at 08:47
