Subject: Re: How to Read Values from Text (.txt) or Databas Sender: steve@geostudio3d.co.uk 16.10.07 02:51 You could try this ... Below is a code sample which lets a VRML scene communicate with PHP on an Apache server/ This was done a long time ago and I forget which browser it was tested on The method uses Browser.createVrmlFromURL The URL is to a PHP file which returns some VRML with an anchor node The anchor node parameter field contains returning data In this example the waitForResponse timer waits 5 2 seconds for the server to respond. You could make it retry until the response returns. Even better, you could add an initialise script to the return vrml which would do a callback on loading.

My aim is to gather data from Database or Text files which are always updated and use these data into my VRML file. Actually in database there is a boolan value if this value is 0 than my machine shows the red light and if value is 1 than my machine shows the green light. There are several machines and continuous updated machine state (0 or 1). How do i satisfy these interaction autonmously? It is my final project of my university. So vital important for me. Please help me. Thank you in advance.   [reply] [back to forum] [new message] [all forums] How to Read Values from Text (.txt) or Database / denizfb81@hotmail.com / 4.10.07 12:58      Re: How to Read Values from Text (.txt) or Databas / steve@geostudio3d.co.uk / 16.10.07 02:51          Re: How to Read Values from Text (.txt) or Databas / nalex@parallelgraphics.com / 16.10.07 06:34              Re: How to Read Values from Text (.txt) or Databas / steve@geostudio3d.co.uk / 16.10.07 09:04          Re: How to Read Values from Text (.txt) or Databas / steve@geostudio3d.co.uk / 16.10.07 03:01 Messages in thread: 5 [reply] [back to forum] [new message] [all forums]
