Hello Coders and Coderesses!

Has anybody here got any experiencing hacking the Citrix Presentation Server API / Citrix ICA Client Object API?

We're integrating a couple of our apps into a suite, and one of our apps works through a Citrix ICA Client Desktop, the other is a web-based package which we thought we could easily just put a shortcut to within the ICA Client and the users could view the web stuff through their Citrix Desktop's browser. Simple.

But no. Our web-based offering also has bundled CTI (IP telephony) components which needs to interface with the hard-phone at the user's home (we're dealing with home-workers). Easy, I hear you say. Leave them separate and just reduce the "seamless" feel of your suite!

Yes, well that would be fab, only the web-based stuff NEEDS to launch forms from the app that's inside our Citrix desktop. I've had an idea how this is possible but I need to know if anybody has the foggiest how to:

1. Obtain a unique session ID from the ICA client.

2. Launch apps on the Citrix Presentation Server (within the client's desktop session this is - from outside)

We have a HTTP(S) listener on the Citrix PS and we can launch apps with that, just not within the end-user's Citrix Desktop environment.

Any clues? :)
