Button Targets to launch external links/scripts/apps

[Virgus]

Hi I've been testing SJ for two days and think it's a great product.
I'm eagerly awaiting for the web interface option to control my home audio from my PDA
meanwhile I'm using with Ajax to control it remotely (both with a remote and via http)

I wanted to add a button to the skin interface to turn the amplifier on/off (through ) but there seems to be no option to set an external target.

Just for clarification:
1) I learn the IR codes from the HiFi remote with USBUIRT device,
2) set the PWR ON/OFF code to be sent from Girder with the AMPPWRON command
3) enabled Girder Web Interface
4) now if I open the link (or better if I use a HTTP GET or POST command without even opening the browser) http://server:port/ajax_sendevent.lhtml ... &device=18 the IR codes are sent to the HiFi and it's turned on.

Is there any way to set the execution of a HTTPget/HTTPpost/script/batch_file as a target of a button?

Thanks,
Virgus from Italy

Not yet, but this is a feature standing on one of the top places on our TODO-List You can expect such a feature in one of the next versions.

Hi, i'm trying to get this to work.

I have a button but for some reason it gives me an error

<button x="0" y="0" src="button1.png" onclick ="program.run('c:\windows\notepad.exe');"/>
<button x="0" y="20" src="button1.png" onclick="program.run('c:\table.png')" />

I tried these scripts.. and they didn't work. Do i need something to the .sj file? This is my first time trying to script.

edit

ok so... for a reason unknown
2010-08-07 23:22:28.548: Error: Execution of command 'c:windows otepad.exe' failed (error 2: the system cannot find the file specified.)
2010-08-07 23:22:28.548: Error: Line 1: Error: cannot run [/graphite 1.66.sjs#zip:main.xml]

xml is ansi codec but for a reason, it won't read the line properly?!

Re edit..
