hi, I am using LPC 2468 as a http server.I have checked http demo program and am able to post and get data from controller. I have to read the data from the microcontroller and display it on the browser as a text or pdf file. I have to read the attendance of employees,make table for present days and absent days and time of arrival etc and display it on browser. is ther any solution to make a text file and display it on browser or will i have to make a cgi file and read the data and accordingly make the table and display it on browser. But how can it be made as text or pdf file to save it on PC.
There are many routes possible.
One design choice is to have a "big" server as man-in-the-middle. You surf to the "big" server, which fetches raw data from the mobile unit and produces graphics, pdf, excel sheets or whatever you want.
Another design choice is to use one of the many, very advanced, javascript modules available out there for performing lots of funny things directly in the web browser.
