At 04:31p -0500 12/26/2005, Stef Caunter didst inscribe upon an
electronic papyrus:
The APC interface uses an onClick javascript event to submit changes
to control the power outlets - most annoying if you would like to
stay in a shell, but there isn't anything to do except ask them to
put in a real html form submit button.
I am sure many of their (inadvertent) end users are unix admins in
ISP colos who find they can't control the unit unless they go to a
javascript browser.
Completely unnecessary, as the interface is dead simple otherwise;
it toggles the device state with option values. Allowing a real form
submit would enable scriptable control for admins.
In the meantime, one might save the HTML page to disk, edit it so it
works properly, then use that local file to control the unit.
That's what I did with my router admin page that uses frames. :-)
