This has been the biggest hurdle for me... clients that (regardless of
whether you agree with them or not), want to be able to open their browser
of choice, go to a page, click on a link or button on the page, and display
Rev stacks *without* having to go to the trouble of forcing their customers
to download the Player, run an install to hook up the stack to the Player,
etc.

I have been very good at convincing my clients that the development and
internet capabilities of Rev are such that it is in their best interest that
I develop these applications in Rev, but it is the hurdle I mention above
that has actually caused me to be forced to duplicate chunks of Transcript
code/interfaces into HTML/etc. so that it could be operated "from the
browser".

Unfortunately I've been unable to convince anyone to use a custom browser
either (that is, a Rev standalone with altBrowser embedded), for the same
reason - people want to use *their* browser, and not download anything, just
click links.

These are non-sensical arguments, true, but they *are* real,
unfortunately...
