Dear All, We are trying to integrate Galaxy with our web app, and we thought of having our web app as the main front end, and allow users to open an HTML frame with Galaxy in it within that app. However, Galaxy makes it impossible - it takes over the entire page when a user logs in or clicks on most links. Is it possible to embed Galaxy in another webapp or is it only designed as a standalone app? Thanks so much, Oren

Hi Oren, Galaxy is designed to run as a standalone app. There are various ways for other applications to interact with Galaxy which may be suitable for your purposes. --nate

Thanks so much, John! Our webapp host is different than the Galaxy host. But I found a way to do it that avoids cross-side scripting via Spring MVC on the server side. So this is possible. Best, Oren On 11/14/2011 12:02 PM, Duddy, John wrote:
