Steve,
Make sure you have ECS_WEB_SERVER defined as below.
When accessing it remotely, you need to specify your IP
address (e.g. "d.d.d.d/program files/ecs/ecs_group_1.htm").

   215)	ECS can now act as a "web server" which will read any requested
	web page, update any Item States within it, and return the
	modified page to the browser.

	NOTE: This feature is still in the EARLY stages
	(numerous changes/enhancements are forthcoming).


	TO ENABLE THE ECS WEB SERVER, enter:
		SET ECS_WEB_SERVER=1
		ECS

	Then to make ECS process a page, enter the page as follows:
		http://{host}/{file}
	where {host} may be "localhost" (for local control) or an IP
	address (for remote control). See "Accessing Your Pc Via The
	Internet" in ECS.HTM for a discussion of IP addresses.


	TO MAKE ECS CREATE/MAINTAIN WEB PAGES FOR EACH GROUP, enter:
		SET ECS_HTM_GEN={d}
		ECS
	where {d} is the auto-refresh rate in seconds (0 for NONE).

	The resulting pages may then serve as examples of what ECS
	"expects to see" when searching pages for Item States.
