I second Jerome's input. Flash+Xml / Soap / rpc seems to work well for this type of work. There's also something that fits the bill of lite client with xml-rpc for remote communications. http://www.xwt.org It's a nearly-perfect example of building a web-based delivery vehicle for "rich" applications using Javascript, and Java. The "nearly-perfect" comes from it not using python ... but that's just a personal bias. Take a look at it. I think it gives a good way to build a multi-platform thin client w/o using Flash.
