One possibility would be "Try Python". It uses Silverlight to execute Python<br>
*in* the browser:<br>

I really like Try Python a lot. However, I do know a number of people<br>
that would quickly give up on Python the minute they see "requires<br>
silverlight" anywhere. Rational or irrational, I don't think we want<br>
to risk losing devs because of that.<br>

Whilst I understand people not wanting to install Python I doubt that an online example needing Silverlight will actually cause people to give up on *Python* altogether. :-)<br></blockquote></div></blockquote><div> </div>

Sorry - but I think Silverlight should be avoided for the reasons listed. Maybe to start with, it should just be a static image displaying code. That could be added very quickly.<br><font color="#888888">
