Re: 5250 Green Screen (client access) invoked by web browser

[Nathan Andelin <nandelin@xxxxxxxxx>]

We offer a web portal under a commercial license that enables administrators to configure 5250 devices for portal users, which appear as hyperlinks.  Each user see's only devices assigned to them.  We launch the TN5250J applet when a "session" link is clicked rather than IBM's emulator.  The portal enables 5250 sessions to run along side new Web applications, and quickly toggle between each.

Users sign-on to the portal, then click links to launch just about any kind of web application, including the applet based emulator - then toggle or tab between them.  If you need more information ...

Subject: [WEB400] 5250 Green Screen (client access) invoked by web browser

What are some of the ways that web apps can be written to invoke and run
5250 Green Screen (client access) in a browser window, so that from your
browser you can start a 5250 session and sign onto the IBM i or System
i.

I am aware that Wintouch CRM (touchtonecorp) offers that capability from
their GUI window.
