I switched mhttpd to use the new javascript based run start and stop pages.

There are two new html pages:

resources/start.html - mimics the old run start page exactly - where you can enter the "edit on 
start" parameters and start the run.
resources/transition.html - monitors the transition progress, shows the status of every transition 
client, their sequence number, waiting list dependency, time spent making rpc calls, etc.

If the new pages do not work for you, please report it here and switch to the old pages
by editing src/mhttpd.cxx - comment-out the line "#define NEW_START_STOP 1"
