You could use sockets in Rev to 'listen' to requests on say port 81. In the
page the Javascript could refer to 127.0.0.1:81 which is port 81 on the
local machine.
Rev could then parse any arguments and act accordingly. I've done it this
way for a couple of projects and it works fine.

Well, if you set up Rev as a CGI on a server, the web page could tell the
CGI that a button was pressed. If a local Rev app needed to know, it could
be polling a particular spot on the server for the existence of a file, and
the CGI could write that file. You'd get a delay between the click on the

We've a browser control (altBrowser.dll) which is embedded into RR as an
object. It can do what you're looking for. Only problem is, it only works
with RR2.0 and the latest MC engine. It can be instatiated to run either IE
or Mozilla and of course control all aspects of the browser.

I have to say WOW and WOW to the last two posts on this thread.
I believe the golden age of third party Rev tools is now upon us! Fasten

Tuviah wrote most the code, and we added a bit here and there. I built a
skinnable RR app around it LEO as well, which acts like a browser.
Chipp this made my day:-) It's great to see what you've done with it!
Let's hope that Apple comes out with a descent SDK for Safari.
