I asked this question a few days ago but got no answer, so I'm trying again:

I would like to be able to get a Rev app to execute from the web. Is this possible? If possible, is it even feasible given web access speeds?

I have read the information on go URL and also the How To entitled "How to use a stack that's on a web server." Unfortunately, it appears that following the instructions in the "How to..." results in download of the stack to the user's machine.

Is there some way to avoid this step and simply get the app to execute from the web server?

(Bear with me here... this may be a stupid idea but I've never tried it, so I have NO idea if it is possible and, if possible, feasible from a speed perspective)

PS I found the following among my notes from previous postings to the list but the link only shows a static page, non of the hypertext links work. Thus, I'm thinking the stack is not actually functioning:


Accessing web-based stacks:

I have a stack (remoteStack) located at a URL address, and I have a
local stack (localStack) on my desktop.  And, I am trying to open
remoteStack with a button on localStack.  I've tried every
combination
of commands I can think of but to no avail.  Would someone
simply tell
my the script for doing this?

open stack url <url>

You can test it with one of my web-based stacks that was done with
MetaCard:

open stack url "http://www.sonsothunder.com/AboutSTS.mc";

=======

It should be as simple as this:

go stack url "http://www.someserver.com/whatever/filename.rev";

A possible problem is that you didn't load the internnet libraries when you built the standalone. Does it work in the Rev development environment?
