Hi,

This is a somewhat obscure topic, but I write this in case it helps someone.

I use WebRunner (http://wiki.mozilla.org/WebRunner) to run several web applications isolated from my browser and in a stand-alone fashion. Off-topic: It would be cool if 37signals provided an official WebRunner bundle with icons for their applications.

For some reason, the WebRunner bundle I created to use Highrise didn’t let me login via OpenID (Basecamp and Backpack did work), as it always showed the normal login form instead of the OpenID one.

So what I did (almost contacted support before this occurred to me) was I used the uri for Basecamp and left the id of the bundle as-is, so it would allow me to login to Basecamp using OpenID, and then using the app bar I switched to Highrise.

Then I changed the uri again to my Highrise uri, and voilá, it kept me logged in.

Did that make sense?

By the way, I also use kdocker in Kubuntu to send my WebRunner apps to the tray. It’s fairly easy in case anyone is interested:

kdocker -i /usr/share/icons/highrise.xpm path_to_webrunner_binary -webapp path_to_webapp_bundle

For the icon I used the Gimp to strip the app name from the official graphic in highrisehq.com and saved it as an xpm file.
