How to do a javascript redirection to a ClickOnce deployment URL?

I have a ClickOnce application used to view some document开发者_如何学Gos on a website. When connected, the user sees a list of documents as links to http://server/myapp.application?document=docname. It worked fine until I had to integrate the website authentication/security system into my application.

The website uses a ticketing system to grant access to its users. A ticket is generated by a web application and needs to be added to the deployment URL querystring, then I have to check at application startup that the ticket given in querystring was right by making another request to the web application. So the deployment URL becomes something like: http://server/myapp.application?document=docname&ticket=ticketnumber.

The problem is the ticket is valid only 10 seconds, so I have to get it only after the user has clicked a link. My first try was to have some javascript do the request to get the ticket, generate the proper deployment URL and then redirect the user to this URL with "window.location = deploymentUrl;".

It works fine in Firefox, but IE does not prompt the user for installation. I guess it is a ClickOnce security constraints, but I am able to do the redirection when doing it on localhost, so I hope there is a workaround. I have also added the server on the "trusted sites" list in IE options.

Is it possible to have that working in IE? What are my other options to do that?

I don't think this will work. ClickOnce doesn't support redirection; it has to have a straight shot from the client to the server to pick up the application and its updates.
