Dave,

I've discovered a probable oversight with the WEB center.

If you set the WEB port (in settings/web) to something other than the default port:80, the WEB center can't access the page on the local machine. I'm guessing that the WEB center does not read the port in settings/web to access the non-default port number. Nothing pressing, just another thing to add to the list....

gg,

Missed answering this earlier.

The Web center is designed to display any web based page and not necessarily the PowerHome web server (this is what it defaults to though on port 80). If you want the Web Center to continue displaying a PowerHome web server page and you've changed the default port on the web server to something other than 80, then this can be easily rectified.

With the Web Center open and active, you'll have a new toolbar associated with it. You can press the "Show" toolbar option (or just press the F1 key or use menu Navigation->Show) and you'll get a URL bar where you can change to whatever URL you'd like. If you'd like to permanently change the Startup URL to something else, you can do this by editing the pwrhome.ini file and changing the "Home" paramenter under the [Web Center] section.

The Web center has functions associated with it that allows you to programmatically control the Web Center with thought being that as triggers or other events occur within PowerHome, you can have the Web Center display various URL's and the like all controlled programmatically.

Hope this helps,

Dave.

Dave,

I should have known that there was built in, a solution or two.

Yup, that worked.

Thank you.
