Hello,

You might want to try the RDP Web Control (Flash based RDP client) that was used in vboxweb (http://code.google.com/p/vboxweb/).

It's available there:

If you can live with RDP you can do this using the activex rdp component for IE.

You can try NoVNC : http://kanaka.github.com/noVNC/. Seems promising ...

Seems that the sample html page does not work if you just open it locally (file://...). If I access it via http://localhost/... on my local webserver it works properly. Nevertheless I was not able to get it working in my own code.
