ON-Rev is a server side technology - that means it could never bring up a
dialog - it's headless, like PHP. You have the groovyness of Transcript, the
language on a server. VEry useful.
For dialogs and other client-side action, one must use Javascript and rev in
combination for input, or use forms. This is still the html-ruled world.
Examples abound. Check http://www.troz.net/rev/

If one wants to make a 'thing' with all the interface goodness of runrev -
create a plugin.

no other language/builder offers all of these ways
