Now im working on a scroll after a short delay, I think this will look smart so watch out for part 2 Smile

Please remember to unplug after uploading new web servers to esp and plug back in give it 20 seconds or so and then goto the ip!

Also you can post to this server from another system via command line


Code:
curl --data "param1=value1¶m2=value2" http://hostname/resource

Example:

Code:
curl --data "text_display=TEXT-HERE" 192.168.0.100/
