I have looked at the bargraph example, it shows how to generate a gif at run time.

I currently have a BMP already generated in RAM (a previous version of this app sends the BMP file via TFTP to a PC), but now I want to view the same image via a browser. I could translate the BMP to a GIF, but I was hoping that I could just use the already generated BMP file.

Not sure if you can embed BMP files in an HTML document...
if you can just serve up the file with the proper MIME type...

.bmp 0 image/bmp


Take a look at the mydoget in the bargraph example for how to serve up a particular file type dynamically in the web server...

I am a newcomer to html / http. I am finding that the comments / documents for the examples assume a level of knowledge that I don't have. Can anyone recommend an intro to this topic to bring me up to the point of being able to understand the web examples, leaving ajax / flash / java aside for now I want to start with a basic understanding of the http / html stuff.

was never answered. Can anyone explain what the return values for a http_gethandler should be

in the examples of MyDoGet(), sometimes the return value is 0 sometimes it is 1. what is the difference between these two cases, are there any other possible cases?
