can anyone point me in the direction of hardware and code for a bs2 and xbee sending sensor input to a web page?

thanks,

jim

p.s. if the bs2 can't do the job, then i would like to look at the propeller code doing the same.

    The bs2 can send serial data over the xbees to the computer. Once it is at the computer it is up to your program as to what it does with it.

    The bs2 could send "74.2" to your computer then the computer could format a web page to display the temperature.

    thanks franklin,

    how would you get the 74.2 to your web page at your url?

    i doubt if web designers know this stuff, and if they don't who does?

    thanks for your thoughts,

    jim

    Web designers will know how to take serial input into their web pages. They would use PHP or Python or one of the other languages that can communicate to a serial port. That part is programming not related to the stamp or xbee.
