Hello List, I am trying to develop a web based controller for a robot. The robot has an embedded telnet deamon and it is controlled primarily through issuing commands on this port. I am planning to implement this system with PHP on the server side.

Please let me know your ideas and inputs.

Prathap: In 1995, Garnet Hertz and I did just that. We had a RC-10 guided by a web interface such that the web user could guide a robot around his laboratory view stuff in real time. It was exceedingly cool. I wrote the interface and he did the electronics. You might review his site for more current projects, namely: http://www.conceptlab.com/ I can't speak for him, but you might make contact -- perhaps he might provide help. As for my code, it's been long lost -- I believe it was in C, but might have been in something else. tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
