Derek,

that can be done now. My mac os x machine will treat any url such as x-dreamcard://www.somesite.com/stack.rev as belonging to the dreamcard player, it will load the stack there. This easy to do... I can give you some steps on how to set this up in case you need.

Lynn,

Well it seems to me that there is 1 other option that may be viable. A protocol loader much like html or ftp, or even a MIME type that is setup in the system.

  rev://www.somesite.com/stack.rev

Much like iTunes, and very easy to implement, would consist of the very same Dreamcard model that RunRev already employs, but a little modified. Once a Player program is installed, the user clicks a link within the browser and boom, the stack loads within a "non- obtrusive" player window. When it's done, the user closes it.

Then, the next evolutionary model in my mind, would be the browser plugin. Embed the stack within the web page itself. All I know is that I'm sure there were complaints from people about having an Acrobat plugin... but look how far that's gone these days.

Hi all,
My bringing this up isnt implying that we are shipping anything tommorrow but, Im interested in your feedback regarding browser interaction with Revolution. WHAT WE HAVE. Here is a short list of what we can do/ is done and probably
could be improved (if Im missing something, feel free to add):
-RevCGI. Server-side applications built with Rev.
-Browser hosting. Served by products like Alt.browser.
WHAT SOME USERS HAVE SUGGESTED. Two other suggestions have been suggested
and one executed in other products previously:
-Flash compiling. Somehow translate a Rev project into Flash.
-"AJAX" compiling. Somehow translate a Rev project into an AJAX like model
that can execute in the browser without a plugin.
-Then there is the Roadster model (ie Rev plugin).
WHAT ELSE? What other options are there? Id like to frame this question also within the bounds of use - if you suggest something, is there a practical
use you can think of?
Before diving into the Roadster model, I ask that you go back and read discussion on the list. I have a very strong opinion about this since I was directly involved in the last rev of the Roadster plugin for SuperCard.
Best regards,

Like I said before, if you'd like to see the development of a Revolution Plugin or ActiveX object for Web Browsers then get on BugZilla or STSRevZilla and vote for Bug #3940.
