Hi dave.... A couple more questions.......

1- Is there a way to control the sort order of the devices displayed in x10 stats and web server device status???? I would like to sort the displayed items by unit id. (IE; A1, A2, b1,b2).

2- have any new features been added to the next version of PH? (1.3.5?) and when do you think you will be releasing it?

Thanks again.....Nick

Nick,

The only way to sort the items by house/unit is to leave the "location" field blank.  The default sort order for the X-10 status screen (both web and client) is location,house/unit.

As far as new features, there are some.  The next release will fix a few bugs such as the CPUXA/Ocelot IR send/receive and triggers, the PowerLinc RS-232 didn't fire incoming X-10 triggers or update status, the ph_sendkeysbtn function was broke, the ph-cgi/relay function was broke, the ph_backupdb function was broke, the ph_processemailthread function didnt work, the ph_runscript_1 thru ph_runscript_5 functions had serious problems, as well as all WSH functions had problems with single quotes being passed to them.

Some improvements are: Support for the USB-Uirt, the CPUXA/Ocelot can now send extended X-10 commands, a couple of new IR in/out triggers, the method macro waiting is done is much improved, a lot of new Windows messaging functions and triggers for remote control, new trigger for global variable modification, and some new functions.

Im currently working on adding support for the PowerLinc USB and should be releasing the next version after this is complete.  This controller is however proving to be a bear so Im not really sure of a timeframe.

HTH,

Dave.
