I do this daily.  Unfortunately I have not had success with the java
client, but the full blown Citrix client for OS X works fine.  I use
Safari, Camino, and FireFox all with success.  The WI will download a
launch.asp file to my browser's download window and I just launch it
from there.  You can config your browser to automatically launch that
file for you but I'm a little anal about letting anything auto launch
things for me so I choose not to do that.

Sometimes on the OS X systems the .asp files will be associated with
Apple System Profiler (I think that is it) and will not launch Citrix as
expected.  When that happens you just need to go in to Get Info and
change what launches when a .asp file is launched.

Does this Mac have Java 1.4.2 Update 2? There are problems with Safari
and that version of Java.

http://support.citrix.com/kb/entry.jspa?externalID=CTX105240 fixed it
for me. Not sure on IE.

Does anyone have tips for accessing WI from an Apple Mac (OS X Tiger)

I've got both Java and the latest citrix client installed, and have
tried both IE and Safari but it doesn't work.

In Safari I get the dreaded Java Red X, and IE just tries to download
the ICA file.
