The Progress/OpenEdge WebClient is a GUI client which means it does not run in the web browser. The WebClient executable supports the same functionality like the standard Windows GUI executable, except that you can run any program which has database references. In practice you can use the WebClient only to connect to an AppServer. You can connect the AppServer directly ( via TCP ) or you can connect the AppServer behind a web server ( via HTTP or HTTPS ). That means there must be a strict separation of GUI and business logic.
On the users machine the WebClient and your application must be deployed. For that there are mechanisms available to provide end users with an URL from which everything gets downloaded automatically - but there is a footprint, a download and a local installation on the end user's machine.
