I have have a few suggestions for webcontrol.
1: make it so you can not only send e-mail's to more than one person, also make it so each e-mail could be different. (Maybe this could be handled in the PLC code to save memory? Or maybe have a version that has no x10 abilities to save memory, I...
I'm going to be using my webcontrol for quite a few things. but they are all going to be similar enough that I should be able to edit the code if you guys can help me get it sorted out.
