It's ok Jim, you will figure out how to use these boards someday

I was first trying to post the zip during lunch at work and my boss came into talk to me and I guess I clicked on Post Now before adding attachment.

On the second attempt, I clicked on the Post Attachment checkbox and then browsed to a CD-RW containing the zip and got a fatal error that caused WIN2K to reboot.

So, here is my third try.

I am not familiar with ADO. I wish I was, though. Someday I will learn it. Anyone try MySQL or Postgre Sql yet?

I cannot get MySQL to work, anyone having any luck? It gives me a TCP/IP socket cannot be created error.

I can help with MySQL. Contact me via email and describe what the problem is.

Here is the plugin. This will hold everyone over until HomeSeer integrates direct PHP support.
...and here is an example for the PHP script:
<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre">&lt;?
$myspk = "The current HomeSeer uptime is ".$hs-&gt;SystemUptime();
$hs-&gt;speak($myspk);
echo $myspk;
?&gt;
</pre>

Dale -
Does your plugin removes the need to declare the COM object for HomeSeer in the php script?
<pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre">
$hs = new COM("HomeSeer.Application");
</pre>

[dale3h]

Yes, it does.

I couldn't get your plugin to work Dale,

I got the following error:
Script error: Invalid procedure call or argument Response.Send hs.Plugin("PHPin").ExecPHP("index.php")

From the HomeSeer webserver. I created a file index.asp with your code in it. I also created a file called index.php with the PHP code in it, and stuck it in the same directory.

My HomeSeer is running on Port 82, because I have Apache/PHP/MySQL set up on Port 80.

Any help is welcomed.

I believe you have to use GetPlugin() outside of HomeSeer. I'll try it and let you know the results.

[dale3h]

Oh, woops...I totally read that wrong. I will check up on this. This has nothing to do with GetPlugin, by the way. Thanks.

It seems that the only way I could duplicate that error was if I didn't have the plugin installed and added to the interfaces. You need to go to View&gt;Options&gt;"Interfaces" tab&gt;Plug-Ins and select PHPin in the drop down and then close the options dialog and restart HomeSeer. Let me know if this was your problem or not.
