Mark,

I've taken an opportunity to download the newest update for testing - the
web engine is looking very impressive.

In reference to your response to Scott below, searching for "www" just gives
me every manufacturerer's web site, and internet also does not help in
providing examples of using the new web server engine.

Is there some examples of how to use ECS's web engine? It seems like the
purpose of this would be for customizing web pages and integrating items and
their states into custom pages. Can you give us a simple example of how this
is done?


For example what would the html code be for presenting a simple page that
says "The time currently is" and then adds the current time state from ECS?

How about a simple web page that gives buttons to turn a single light item
on and off?


I'm not interested in using the group pages that are created, in fact I'd
like to eliminate my groups entirely. I would however like to be able to
selectively add items to web pages.
