Autolaunching PocketCloud from web applications

Autolaunching PocketCloud from web applications

Is there any way to launch PocketCloud from web application?
I have an application that generates .rdp files. I would like to publish links to these .rdp files in my web application, so users can click the link and launch the application. 
May be there is a protocol registered with the app (like pocketcloud://)?
I've tried to open .rdp file in the browser but it is shown as a text file in Safari.
Please, advise.

Thanks

PocketCloud supports the following RDP keys:

full address:s:10.100.108.103
domain:s:WYSE
username:s:john
desktopwidth:i:1024
desktopheight:i:768
disable wallpaper:i:1
disable full window drag:i:1
disable menu anims:i:0
disable themes:i:1
audiomode:i:0
alternate shell:s:
shell working directory:s:
pocketcloud password:s:
server port:i:3389 

You will need to add a MIME type to your web server so that it doesn't open the file as a text document.

Can you upload your RDP file to the web so I can test it for problems?

Thanks a lot! I figured out that it also supports passing application name, e.g. remoteapplicationname:s:notepad.exe
For some reason I cannot pass command-line parameters to a remote application, e.g. remoteapplicationcmdline:s:"my param goes here". If I open RDP file from my computer command-line params are passed successfully. But they are not passed when launching PocketCloud. Is there any restriction applied?
