I made a web application - revlet file and test.html. It works perfectly on Firefox when it is on my Mac OSX 10.6.2 computer. When I upload it to my web server (both files in the same folder), I get nothing in Firefox and Safari gives me an invalid revlet error message.
I don't have any problems viewing revlets on other sites. My plug-in is working just fine.
I thought that revlets were plug-in dependent and not server dependent - is this correct?
I was wondering if my web application settings were a factor in any way. I used the default settings. Build for web - checked. Compatibility Settings: Min Environment Version: None. Platforms supported: All checked. Run on other platforms: Yes. Security Settings: Auto-detect.
The stack turned web app is a pretty simple decorate the Christmas Tree game. Move the ornaments to the tree and clean up with a clean up button. Nothing fancy - one card.
I am stumped. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Revlet Invalid?

Re: Revlet Invalid?
Hi catzlover,
welcome to the forum.
I did quite a few revlets and never had that problem. I do rename the test.html to index.html, but that should not be the problem. Did you mix an earlier version revlet with later test.html by any chance. I would try to reupload both newly created to the server. In the security settings I noticed that Rev does not always detect the right amount of permission needed. It tends to ask for permissions for various reasons. I just choose manual and dont check any of the options if I know they would not be needed. Accessing the server where the revlet is hosted does not need permission to access the internet. (in case you load media from your server)
regards

Re: Revlet Invalid?
Thank you for the input.
First, the revlet and html file I am using are both created at the same time. I am not mixing files nor am I editing the html file in any way.
I tried changing the Security settings to manual without checking any of the boxes. No difference.
I also neglected to mention before that I am uploading to my server with AUTO settings so the files should theoretically not be garbled in the upload.
For all intents and purposes, my revlet should work. Alas, it doesn't.
Again, I would appreciate any help. I made a number of games for preschool children in Hypercard and Supercard that were never cross platform and are essentially defunct in the newest Mac platform. I was very excited about the possibility of offering new versions of the old stacks and/or new simple games online via RevMedia. I just need to figure out how to do this.
I would be happy to send anyone the revlet/html and/or the rev stack via email if someone would be interested in trying to get it online. I have checked the forums etc. and I just don't see what I am missing.
Thanks so much!
