Web Interface

To use anyRemote with any device which contains web browser and which can connect to PC by TCP/IP (GPRS, Wi-Fi, ...) it is possible to use built-in web interface.

On WinMobile devices it is recomended to use Opera Mobile instead of MS IE, because Opera Mobile handles HTTP caching directives more correctly.

Short How-To

To run web interface you have to:

if GUI is used: descend to Setup->Preferences and tick "Run web interface with parameters" check box. Be sure edit fields with web interface parameters are set correctly.
if command line is used:
- run anyRemote with "-s web:_some_port_" parameter. It needs to use Server-mode configuration files.

For example:

anyremote -f /path/to/some/cfg.file -s web:5198

Variables used by web interface

[only by web interface] This variable should be set to minimal value of width and heigth of device screen size. Default value is 240.

$(RefreshPage)

[only by web and XML services interfaces] This variable to automatically refresh page. Refresh rate should be specified in seconds. Default value is -1 that means no refresh.
