Yes, because it's server-side scripting. All the compilation and
execution of Rev script is taking place on the On-Rev server. The
viewer's browser just sees the results of the script, usually as HTML.

you have
written for the rev-web hosting service, online. However, you don't
have to
have this to run and manage the pages.
Correct.
-- If you have revBrowser, you can display any web pages in Rev
stacks.
There's no revBrowser separate revBrowser product any more, it's part
of the core engine these days. But yes, it's basically a browser
window embedded within your Rev stack.
-- if you have the browser plugin, you can run revlets, ie stacks
you've
compiled for the web, in the browser with that plugin, and these can
be
hosted anyplace you can get anyone to host them, including locally.
Yes.
Is that how it goes? So if you're running and writing for Linux,
you can
write pages for the rev-web server, and they will run in any browser
on any
OS including Linux, but the only way to do that is by subscribing to
the
hosting service.
Yes. I think the On-Rev engine is still due to be released for people
to install on their own servers at some stage.
