Using Omniscope Web Start - JNLP Link Builder

Web Start 'zero-footprint' temporary-install option for free Viewer

Java Web Start is an optional way to deploy the free Viewer to users' machines using standard Java technology that allows anyone with Java (which is almost everyone) to temporarily install the free Viewer from a web link or page button and download an associated IOK file. Once downloaded, the Viewer is cached in the users' machines' local  Java cache for re-use, but the accompanying IOK data file is not saved, and must be re-downloaded from the Publisher's web site on each use, ensuring fresh data and providing security against data forwarding/misuse.
