Control Rev App from web?

[michael]

Hi, I just discovered Revolution and am in the midst of learning all 
about it. 
I have a project being planned out and I think Rev might be perfect for it.

I know you can display web or ftp contentm and I did see a web browser 
stack somewhere out there that would use the end-users default browser 
or a specified one...  I need to have an integrated web browser in my 
app.  So this leads me to my question. 

Can controls be embedded in a web page to command  an apps stacks/cards 
to launch? I am assuming yes, and will continue to research..  An 
example would be,  prompting a media file linked on web to play in the 
apps own player.  Or would I need to pull the links to the media file 
located either on remote server or local.... using a card field or some 
other relevent approach? 

Thanks!! 


Babble_Out-  I am a php/perl/javascript/html guy and this is my first 
venture into making apps other than stuff in Flash and Director.  My 
apps must work on all possible platforms, which led me to find 
Revolution.  Not only does it do this, which I think is incredible since 
there are a plethora of authoring/programming software out there that 
cannot do this.   I was going to dive into C++ but dont necessarily have 
the time or patience to do that right now.  Rev, I am hoping, is my 
solution.
