I'm trying to make sense of how one might use vnc via a web browser; evidently it is meant to be possible with packages like 'noVNC'.
The official doc is not exactly fabulous so it's taking me more effort than it really should to see what it meant to happen, but I dare say that will eventually work out. Pointers to a good explanation would be appreciated.
The more directly squeak relevant question is whether anyone has made our RFB server work to display within a web browser. It seems like it ought to be doable, it's just sending bits down sockets after all. The real prize would be finding a way to use the same port that a Seaside connection is using as opposed to having to find a 59XX port that is available, configure port forwarding, and all the other faffing about. You have a connection! Use it you stupid computer! Even doing things the clumsy manual way proved how incredibly useful it could be to get RFB access to a headless server the other side of the continent. Imagine having a convenient way to get that within Seaside. Maybe even imagine making a system that can VNC a single Morph, allowing say, a HierarchyBrowser to be share for a quick debug, or a BlobMorph.
