I want to make a website with buttons that a user can click. The buttons
would trigger applescripts to control one of my machines. I am pretty
sure this is easy to do if the server is here (mine)-- I'd add some kind
of a plug-in.
In this case, the webserver is somewhere else, not under my control, so I
can't add a plug-in. I keep thinking that I should be able to do
something like this:
http://myipaddress/script.html
where script.html would be the script.
I use a program called "Yada" from Stimpsoft to display messages on the
screen of one of my machines, and it's triggered via the web, so I feel
as though an applescript over the web is not a major leap.
Any ideas?
