The URL to start my deployed VLF web browser application is too complex for users to reliably type in to their browsers
Imagine that the URL needed to start your deployed web browser application was:
http://nnn.nn.nn.nn/VF_SY001_System_ENG_BASE.HTM?Partition=PRO+SwitchTo=xxxx+SwitchObject=xxxxx+SwitchCommand=xxxxxxx
This is too complex for anyone to reliably type in. Some of the options you have to avoid having people type it in to a browser are:
Option 1: Create a short cut on their desktop that resolves to the URL.
You can even create the shortcut on your desktop, then drag and drop it into an e-mail. The e-mail recipients can then drag and drop it from the e-mail onto their desktops. When they click on the shortcut on their desktop the web browser will be started.
Option 2: Create a simplified start up HTML file.
If you create an HTML file named MyApplication.htm (say) on your web server that contains HTML like this:
<html>
<head><title>My Application</title></head>
<body onload='window.location.replace(
"http://nnn.nn.nn.nn/VF_SY001_System_*_BASE.HTM?Partition=PRO+SwitchTo=xxxx+SwitchObject=xxxxx+SwitchCommand=xxxxxxx"
);'>
</body>
</html>
Then the users only ever need to type in http://nnn.nn.nn.nn/MyApplication.htm to start the application. An additional benefit is that you can change the parameters used in MyApplication.htm at any time without the users needing to change what they do. Of course you can still use option 1 to avoid typing in any URL at all.
