Hi Brian -
I don't think you need to post to SO, we should be able to help you here.
I see two pieces to this:
1. Can the iPad access each of the URLs independently?
a. Enter http://192.168.1.5:65011/jijx <http://192.168.1.5:65011/jijx>
b. Enter http://192.168.1.5:65011/t <http://192.168.1.5:65011/jijx>gsj
c. Enter http://192.168.1.5:65011/ <http://192.168.1.5:65011/jijx>
~Projects/tgsjhs/tgsjhshelp.html
<http://127.0.0.1:65001/~Projects/tgsjhs/tgsjhshelp.html>
2. If the iPad browser can access each of those URLs, then it becomes a
question of how to generate the frame HTML. I agree that storing it on the
device is not ideal. The right solution is to have JHS emit that HTML. It
should be along the lines of the HTML you are already emitting. Instead of
hard coding the IP address, you'll probably want to dynamically determine it
If you've already tried these things, I or someone else can provide some
sample JHS code to output that html. Let us know
Thanks
Joe
