Hi,
OK so here is something I am not getting. Likely its me·being dense and some sage advice·from the denizens of this forum·will clear it all right up.
I read in the manual for the PINK module that I can set its variables using HTML post methods. Example code is given to show a page with a text entry box and a submit button that will allow a PINK variable to be set from a web browser.
What I'd like to do is be able to set variables via ftp or html or similar but without the user intervention of the text box and the submit button. Can I do that?
I have a linux box reading some temperature probes on a 1-wire network. I'd like to be able to ftp my current temperature readings onto the PINK and have them available to the STAMP as PINK variables.
HOW DO I DO THAT ?
Thanks and best regards,

I posted a similar question over·at linuxquestions.org·and got an excellent solution suggested. I have tried it out and it works GREAT! Just what·I needed.
Hope this is useful to others too.
