Hi, I made some progress on this topic and I think I Rev+CGI can do the job.
While waiting for revServer, I decided to try CGI with Rev to see if it fits my needs. Of course, I had to use the 3.5 standalone engine, as v4.0.0 does not include the standalone engine anymore. First of all, I searched for a multiplatform, tiny, easy-to-install-and-configure web server on the market. Of course there is Apache, but I found "Abyss Web Server" by "aprelium" (http://www.aprelium.com/abyssws/). There is a free version for personal use and for commercial use it's only $59. It supports Windows, Linux, Mac, FreeBSD. The web server setup is easy and done with the browser, I just had to add a new interpreter, set the executable to the Rev standalone, set the "-ui" argument and the "irev" extension for the "RevLets" and now I can access the "RevLets" with the "irev" extension direct from the browser. I didn't have to set any permission for the file. I needed database access to PostgreSQL, so I just had to point the directory where revdb.bundle and dbpostgresql.bundle (Mac files) are located in the "set the externals of this stack" clause. I built a Rev Stack for common functions and used the "start using" clause in the "RevLet" and now I can create the logic all in the Rev Stack, with source code protected! I was using "vi" to edit my files and I was not happy with it, of course... Then, last night Stephen Barncard (thank you!!!) released the Rev colour syntax for coda, now my work seems to be complete! All seems to be working fine, I can move on and try the connections on the PDAs, then rewrite my application logic on the PDA to communicate through HTTP and see what happens. When revServer comes up, I think I can move without deep changes, as the "RevLets" are Rev!!!
