Hmm, I'm not sure what you mean by 'scenario'.  
The server is designed to run fantasy/sci-fi/modern/historical RPGs.

User hits web page and mud's http port, mud pushes HTML page across.
Users browser automatically checks objects against cache and only DLs
new objects.
Client executes in browser and attempts to connect to mud's playing port.
Client tells mud that he is special.
When a character is obtained/created, mud sends body tags and prompt tags.
and continues to send context tags with mud output.

Everything sent to the user exists in the mud database, including the
client
program itself.
