If you mean opening a desktop application in response to a web page, you can use a custom application protocol but that is browser- and OS-specific.
I would like to be opened from any web browser. I don't mind if it's only for windows for ex but to be able to be opened from any browser.

Here is a tutorial for registering a similar protocol for Firefox. At the end of the day, it will always be browser specific. This page has support details for various browsers.
