Making Sessions Available from Web Pages

With connection documents (.eod*), you can provide access to preconfigured Exceed onDemand Client sessions from a web page.

Note: 
  You must install Exceed onDemand Client to start sessions from a web page.

To create a web link:

  1. Create a connection document to start Exceed onDemand Client with the required startup parameters and session configuration. For information on creating connection documents, see Creating Connection Documents.
  2. Use the following syntax in the link definition on the web page:

<a href="connect.eod8" type=application/eod>Run EOD</a>

where:
  1. Place a copy of the specified connection document on the web server in the same directory as the HTML page.
  2. On the web server, add the following MIME type for the .eod* extension:

application/x-eodclient.connectiondocument.8
Note: 
  Use application/eod or application/eod7 if you are using Exceed onDemand Client version 6 or 7 respectively.
  1. Restart the web server.
