OK, so I'm new to EG - love it! I've been playing around with the web server plug in & am having some strange problems. I ultimately want to be able to trigger various PC controlled animation routines for my Halloween display through my ipod touch. I've successfully created macros to receive button presses from a test page & launch the routines through hot keys. Where I'm having a problem is with the page caching.
Windows XP Pro SP3, EG 0.3.7.r1462 (Windows is running in a Virtualbox VM on Mac OS X host, if that matters.)
Here's my web page code:
<html>
<head>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="CACHE-CONTROL" CONTENT="NO-CACHE, must-revalidate"/>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="PRAGMA" CONTENT="NO-CACHE"/>
<title>EventGhost Webserver example</title>
</head>
<body>
<br><br><br>Example Haunt Control
<table border="0">
<tr>
<td width="250"><a href="index.html?1"><img border="0" src="1.jpg"></a></td>
<td width="250"><a href="index.html?2"><img border="0" src="2.jpg"></a></td>
<td width="250"><a href="index.html?3"><img border="0" src="3.jpg"></a></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
When I try to run the page on my ipod touch, each button only works once. If I refresh the page it sends the last button pressed. What's really weird is that if I run the page on my ipad, the buttons work fine for 20 - 30 presses, then start skipping every other button press.
When the presses fail (on both the ipod and ipad) eventghost doesn't log anything.
Is there something I'm missing?
Thanks.
