For obvious security reasons, your browser cannot start another executable when a link is clicked.

It is not possible what are you asking for, the only way is to use this technique and associate a custom "protocol" to a given executable:

I often have multiple NodeJS scripts in the same project, and I can only get debugging in VSCode to work, if I edit the launch.json to point at a specific file.

I currently have a project site ( interact.rdarellano.com ) which uses PHP forms to run Bash scripts on my webserver. I'm not happy with this PHP method because it reloads the site every time that the button is clicked.
I've read that Javascript may be able to handle this task in the background. I've never experimented with Javascript so I'm hoping to find somebody that can help me achieve this or guide me on how to set this up.
Read about JSON and AJAX. Start with Jquery which has methods to deal with this.

I need to check, whether my Firefox addon is installed or not when users log into my website. If addon is not installed then users will see an alert to install the addon and if addon is already installed then there will no alert.
There is no direct method to check if an add-on is installed or not. This question was also asked here before. Please see. How to check with Javascript if a Firefox 3 Add-on / Extension is installed
If it's your own add-on then you can write some custom javascript method to try to communicate with your add-on and then display alert accordingly.
