I am trying to open a command prompt and run telnet from a web page. Is it
possible? and how would you do it?
 
No, it is not possible due to security reasons.

You don't open a command prompt, you create a telnet link:

click the following

telnet://towel.blinkenlights.nl/

Note that when clicked here, it will open a browser window and then telnet.
When clicked from a web page it just opens a telnet window.

In html view the link will look like this:
<a href="telnet://towel.blinkenlights.nl">Telnet</a>
