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

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. Regards Gary
