iRev allows you to script dynamic web pages that just work without your viewers having to download or install any plugins. You can think of it as a replacement for PHP & CGI scripts, but not JavaScript as it is server-side scripting, not client-side. You can change the page that is sent to a browser as it is requested, but you cannot change a page in response to a user interaction without using JavaScript too. Have a look at the examples on my On-Rev page to see some of the things you can do <http://www.troz.net/onrev/>. My whole site is now built using On-Rev scripting which takes text files listing stacks or revlets or web links and builds it all as requested. Basically, revlets allow you to put stacks on a web page. iRev scripting allows you to build dynamic web pages without a plugin.
