Should a blank IE window open (http://myserver/ph-cgi/blank) when you press one of the buttons in the web Control Center? I never noticed this before.

Tony,

Yes, this is normal.  The way HTML works, when you click a link (a button) to perform an action, the result of that action is a new web page.  I could have made the Control Center web page just refresh itself after a button press but this seemed a waste of resources.  Instead, I redirected the resulting button press action to a new blank webpage that is opened in the background.  All subsequent button presses are sent to this blank page.  This way you don't have to watch the Control Center refresh with each button press.

Dave.
