There are web plugins for X3D (an XML-based 3D modelling language, =20
the successor to VRML), so VPython could conceivably export to X3D =20
the way it does to POVRay. You would lose any custom Python =20
interactivity (unless it was recoded in Javascript and X3D), but have =20=
basic X3D interactivity (grab, walk, fly, if I recall correctly).
I don't know of any X3D exporters at this time, but I would expect it =20=
to be easier than porting VPython to a plugin.
