Well, I'm asking about the value=<CGI script invocation output> syntax, substituting ReadReg(reg_param) for "deadbeef". <sheepish> Ok, so I've been putting off firing up the ol' search engine and digging back in to this issue. I've gotten on the ball and have apache set up for fiddling around with it now. </sheepish> Glen: Sorry old chap, I was asking about static HTML. I was working with an embedded 8051 with zero extra RAM so it all had to come from a fixed source in flash ROM. Thus the need to invoke a CGI script for the initial text box value. I'll get back with the answer I think I was asking when I know what it is. I think.
