Right, that is all I remember too. I worked with Apple's web server 
software and HyperCard and Mac OS 7.5 to create an online database for a 
school district many years ago. And yes, we needed to use AppleScript to 
communicate between the server and HyperCard as a CGI. HyperCard then 
formulated HTML pages and sent those back to the server.

Rev could work the same way, I imagine. I haven't written any server 
implementations for OS 9 for many years though.
