Re: Universal Remote via EventGhost

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll give that a shot tonight.

Have you implemented any x10/Insteon thru Eventghost and your USB-UIRT?? If so what hardware did you have to buy?

Thanks,

J

I did that. That's the event I called HTTP.REC_PWRON_DVD

e.g....

onclick="clickbutton('index.html?HTTP.REC_PWRON_DV D');window.location.href='http://192.168.1.6/default.asp'"

I thought it would be easy but I'm totally clueless when it comes to java. The onclick event I bolded above, is that in Eventghost or html/java code? Where exactly does this code go? Does it all go in my href=" line?
Here's the code for that button that just sends the IR commands. Can you show me where your code would go?

<div style="position: absolute; top: 270px; left: 30px;"><a
href="index.html?HTTP.REC_PWRON_DVD"><img
style="border: 0px solid ; width: 350px; height: 80px;"
alt="listen to music" src="images/button_listen_music.png"></a><br>
</div>

If I'm using Java don't I need to add something in the <head> part of my page? I did a search on java and onclick and get something different on every link.

Thanks,

J

Re: Universal Remote via EventGhost

I got it figured out (with some help from someone I work with) in case anyone else is following. Here's the code for sending the commands to Eventghost and then opening an external page:

<div style="position: absolute; top: 270px; left: 30px;">
<INPUT type="image" src="images/button_listen_music.png"
onclick="location.href='index.html?HTTP.REC_PWRON_ DVD';
location.href='http://192.168.1.6/default.asp'"><br>
</div>

But after messing around with it I decided I wanted the 192.168 link to open in it's own window so I put in a popup command instead. This still send the IR commands to eventghost and then open this popup window.

<div style="position: absolute; top: 170px; left: 31px;"><a
href="#"
onclick="location.href='index.html?HTTP.REC_PWRON_ DVD';
popup=window.open('http://192.168.1.6/default.asp?Action=music','Popup'); return false;"><img
style="border: 0px solid ; width: 350px; height: 80px;"
alt="listen music" src="images/button_listen_music.png"></a><br>
</div>

Now that I know how to use the popup feature I can put in reminders for other users to make sure certain things are on that I can't control by IR yet (my 3.5TB unraid server for example) before they continue to the next pages of control.

Re: Universal Remote via EventGhost

I know it has been a while since this post, i hope someone is able to respond. I am trying to set this up, but cannot get the files you hosted a while back to see your setup. I would really appreciate it if you could email or link to the files again.

Re: Universal Remote via EventGhost

What files are you talking about? I just re-read through here and I don't think I posted anything. It's funny you brought this up, I just dug out my N800 last night and tried to mess with this again.

Re: Universal Remote via EventGhost

MysticKatDaddy placed a link to the files he had for his setup. The link is down and nobody on the internet has an example to work from except him.

Re: Universal Remote via EventGhost

and for some reason I cant PM anyone, but I can post. Thought that MysticKatDaddy would maybe see this and be able to relink

Can you post your code and files? I am limited in javascript and need a reference e page to work from. I would really appreciate it.

Re: Universal Remote via EventGhost

OMG! I thought I was only one who is looking for that software! Im in the middle of developing layout for webserver plugin (eventghost) which will fit into n900 perfectly.
