Script Access

[JB_1366]

Question: how do i execute a script i created in /jffs/scripts from a clickable-button on my webpage? right now I use cron to execute. i dont know what format i need, to execute on Merlin firmware. webpage is sitting in /www/user5.asp like its supposed to. AI couldnt figure out how to integrate to web interface either, so for now its a bookmarked page for me.

The user5.asp page needs a button that submits the form with the document.form.action_script="restart_myscript".

Then you would modify /jffs/scripts/service-event to react when the $2 parameter equals "myscript" or whatever you want to call your trigger. If the $2 parameter matches, you would invoke your real script in /jffs/scripts from the service-event script.

Easy peasy.

I don't suppose you could give me the exact code to use for webpage button & service-event entry?

There's an example in the API link in my previous post. Only you know what you're trying to accomplish. Specifics matter.
