jeff.penrod Streamlining logging into SalesForce Web Application
Our phone system has a desktop agent that can shell out or communicate with external applications. We have an existing application that gets account information through web services, then invokes an instance of internet explorer 6 and directs the browser to the appropriate account.
I am performing maintenance on this application, and I'm trying to figure out how to have the application log into the SalesForce web application. I am successfully logging in through the web service, but the web application is requiring me to log in again when I attempt to navigate to the account page.
Given a successful login to the web service, is there a way to navigate to the account page without having to enter credentials at the login screen?
Thanks,
Jeff Penrod

Quote from the site ..
Recently I decided I wanted to create soom "quick launch" bookmarklets for Salesforce.com. I wanted buttons on my browser toolbar that would take me to specific Mods in Saleforce.com and execute the exact action I wanted without having to first visit a page with such a link, or worse having to use that infernal little drop down for creating new records/objects. For example, I really wanted a button for creating a new Account that was always available.
