Still can not get revBrowser to load in standalone

Have you tried loading the external 'dynamically'? I used this method
(courtesy of Trevor DeVore) with the old altBrowser external and stuck with
it when it morphed into revBrowser.

Something like...

on loadAppExternals
  if pExternals <> empty then
    if there is not a stack "myExternals" then
      reset templateStack
      set destroyWindow of templateStack to true
      set destroyStack of templateStack to true
      set visible of templateStack to false
      set externals of templateStack to pExternals
      create stack "myExternals"
      reset templateStack
    end if
    go stack "myExternals"
    start using stack "myExternals"
  end if
end loadAppExternals

...where pExternals is a return delimited list of the paths to the externals
you want to load.

BTW there's still a major bug (5125) with revBrowser on Windows (although
this remains unconfirmed after more than 12 months), which is that form data
is not passed in the browserBeforeNavigate callback. So if you want to
handle form data in Rev then you're out of luck!
