How to... > Define the Standard Desktop Client

With the URL parameter client=auto WebOffice 10 R3 determines whether to start the application in a desktop client (html or flex) or with the mobile client. The standard desktop client by default is the WebOffice html client. In order to change the standard desktop client to WebOffice flex client navigate to the <WebOffice installation directory> and edit the file externalcall.jsp with a text editor.

externalcall.jsp - parameter preferred desktop client

Right on top you will find the parameter preferred_desktop_client which is by default set to html and can be changed to flex. After this change, WebOffice 10 R3 will start with the mobile client if being used by a mobile device and otherwise work with WebOffice flex client.

Note: This parameter MUST be configured again every time a patch or service pack is installed.
