<HTML><FONT FACE=arial,helvetica><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Geneva" FAMILY="SANSSERIF" SIZE="2">I too, am interested in this code, if you have it handy. In particular, what would the javascript "onclick()" handler look like, and what does the "socket-reading" code on the Revolution-side look like? I've been experimenting with open socket routines, and I seem to have problems getting it to detect error messages.<BR>

possible to share your script with the list?<BR>
