When we publish a website URL via Citrix, we always to lockdown the website user can access.
The easiest way is to use IE lock down mode. To enable lock down mode is simple, you only need to add “-p” parameter.
For example,
iexplorer -k http://wwww.google.com
Then when user start the application, they will get a full screen IE with no addressbar, no bottons.
But please be aware that, in lock down mode there is no exit botton, so User need to press ALT+F4 to close IE.
Is there any better option?
Yes, you can use below script:
Set objArgs = WScript.Arguments If objArgs.Count = 0 Then WScript.Echo "No URL provided, please supply a URL to open" & VbCrLf & VbCrLf & "e.g. CScript OpenURL.vbs http://www.google.com" wscript.quit End If Set objIE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application") With CreateObject("internetexplorer.application") .navigate "about:blank" With .document.parentWindow.screen iHeight = .height iWidth = .width End With End With objIE.StatusBar = False objIE.Visible = True objIE.AddressBar = False objIE.MenuBar = False objIE.ToolBar = False objIE.Top = 0 objIE.Left = 0 + 8 'Move to the side just a bit to show the desktop objIE.Width = iWidth - 16 'Shrink to let a bit of the desktop show on the sides objIE.Height = iHeight - 28 'Shrink a bit to see the taskbar objIE.Navigate (objArgs(0))
Then publish “IE.vba www.google.com”
