How can I run my workflow from a web page?

Currently we don't have a ready-made framework for this, although a possible outcome of the Taverna workflow service TAV-18 development is that a successfull workflow can be servicized and be available both as a specific web service and a web page.

There are several ways to do this already if you know how to make dynamic web pages, one way is to use the ExecutingWorkflowOutsideOfTaverna feature, in particular the executeworkflow.sh shell script, from a PHP/CGI based page which takes some input fields and displays the results.

We recommend to also provide the actual workflow, so that existing Taverna users can use the workflow instead of accessing your web page.

Other actors are developing specific tools for this, one example is BioWep by Paolo Romano and others.
