Sarah, your new demo applets all seem to work, and very nice too, I was thinking of some in the past that required the plugin to be installed in the browser, and of course there wasn't one for Linux.
So basically it goes like this, doesn't it? We want to write on-rev material, we can, we use a text editor, then we load it onto the Rev run on-rev server, and it works fine in Linux or anything else, in any web browser. Presumably there's a handbook with a guide for how to do this someplace. We don't have the on-rev desktop client which might make life easer, but we can do it. What we need for this is a subscription to the on-Rev hosting service. I'm not thinking of doing this at the moment, so this not going to be available. If Rev eventually releases the server package, then it would be in principle possible to do this on any server where it was loaded, but we are not there yet. RevBrowser would, if we had it, display ordinary web pages hosted anyplace in a stack. We can't do this because it does not exist for Linux. The browser plugins, if we had them, but we don't, would basically let us run stacks compiled for this purpose in a browser window. They could be hosted anyplace, not just the Rev server. We don't have this plugin for Linux, so we can't do it. But we can compile such stacks, and people running Windows and OSX will be able to run them, as long as they install the browser plug in. It doesn't really appeal to me, to write apps that my own OS will not run, but I do understand that it is possible. Then there is Rodeo. If we could get Rodeo, it would let us write pages in a special client, is that right? And then we could compile them to run in any Web browser and host them on any server? But right now we cannot get that either, because it is only for iPhone OS. Its a bit confusing, I hope this is right. Its like, you are on holiday, you go for a long invigorating swim, and come back hungry to the breakfast buffet, only to realize that the only thing on it you are allowed to eat is some low fat cottage cheese, and maybe one cup of unsweetened black coffee. And the cottage cheese is, well, not exactly fresh....
