Had anybody had any luck adding the ScreenConnect form on their website without using their suggested iframe method in the documentation?

Basically I just need the form to include the text box, and the submit button.


Really appreciate it!

You can put a textbox and button, but it will just jump them to your screenconnect install with that code.

I'd use the iframe, but make a theme that completely strips off everything but our textbox and button from the guest page. A more extreme version of our embedded theme. Is this something you may be interested in?

I would like to integrate ScreenConnect into my site but without the iFrame, where they see the field for the code and click the button to connect. I tried the above with the latest stable release of ScreenConnect (2.3) but couldn't get this it to work. My installation of ScreenConnect and my website are hosted in different locations, does that matter? Any help would be much appreciated.

The above method uses an iframe. How does it not work? An iframe doesn't necessarily mean you'll get nasty borders and scrollbars. It can look like it's directly integrated into the page.

If you don't use an iframe, there is a massive amount of logic you'll have to duplicate to have the app launch seamlessly. The iframe does this for you.

The method detailed below will work, but it will send them to your ScreenConnect site and likely they'll have to hit the "Join" button a second time because some browsers (really just IE) won't let us launch our client without user initiation:

Ok thank you. In one of the previous posts you mention modifying the theme to achieve the same results removing everything but the textbox and button for the guest to join coded sessions. Can you provide an example of how this would be done?
