Similarly, after doing a restore, select Import in the context-menu to restore your programs. This bug is corrected in beta version 2.6.3.

 

Thanks and with kind regards,

I have changed my interface PHP script to accommodate this new version. All the changes seem to represent improvements, but there were too many for me to want to maintain two versions, so I simply updated the page for the conventions present in 2.6.2.

 

The description and PHP script are located here:

Dear ISY Beta testers,

 

Lutusp has been kind enough to bring to our attention that you can log in to 2.6.2 without entering your userid/password. This is a BUG and a security risk which will be fixed in the next drop.

 

Thanks and with kind regards,

Michel

Lutusp,

Thanks for the php script. It works great on my PDA with a host on Windows and wasn't hard to set up. Two questions, One, would it be hard to add a table for running programs in addition to devices and scenes? Two, could you show how to manually make a button activate a control? I'm thinking I could set up a page for each room and manually build the layout if I knew how to set up the buttons.

Thanks,

Ed

lutusp, that is a seriously cool idea and implementation.

 

Now I'm wondering if this will translate easily into ASP or PERL (especially PERL). I don't have, and really want to load, PHP on all my PCs, but all the same, the idea is great!! Thanks!
