I assume that the revlet & the html file are still in the same folder
on the server?
Did you upload the files as text? FTP clients can do that sometimes
and it converts any binary files into garbage. Make sure it is set to
auto or binary.
Next idea: does the revlet try to access another file that it could
find on your computer, but not on the server?

HTH,
