Embedding remote applications into HTML pages

A system, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• a processor, coupled to the memory, the processor configured to:
• identify a hyperlink comprising an identifier of a remote application running in a virtual execution environment, wherein the hyperlink includes a frame height and a frame width of a frame for rendering output produced by the remote application;
• determine, based on the frame width and the frame height, a position of a window for rendering output of the remote application on a virtual desktop of the virtual execution environment;
• cause a remote access session to be established with the virtual execution environment;
• transmit, to the virtual execution environment, a first message specifying the position of the window on the virtual desktop;
• cause the frame to be displayed for rendering output of the remote application;
• and
• responsive to receiving a user interface input associated with the frame, transmit a second message reflecting the user interface input.
