Pink/Bluetooth Web Controlled Robot

GooberTek

I know all the parts are there· I am just missing one thing. Here is the story

-Built a Robot using the BoeBot and a Basic stamp
-Connected it via Bluetooth
-Robot runs fine via terminal window
-Started writing web interface using ASP.NET but gave up because of time required to learn coding
-Would like a web interface that:
······ -Drives the robot via a web page gui control pannel
······ -Screen does not repaint after each time a button is pressed
······ -Lastly, and this is really an extra, disable/enable buttons on the screen depending on if someone else i
········is driving or not - Don't want two people trying to control the robot at the same time.

I know the people who manufacture webcam32 sell a canned solution for over $300.

Does someone have the code? Where can I get it?·

How can I get away from just using a generic post command which refreshes the whole screen?

Could the Pink module be helpful with this?

although I haven't tried it yet it looks like Ajax is the way to go for posting sensor data.
