 23 Mar 2018, Stefan Ritt, Bug Report, link to an array element displays whole array in mhttpd 
|
It might have worked some ~5 years ago, but it never really showed the target value of a link, just the
link itself. I reworked the code now to show both the link and the target of the link, so you can change
both in the mhttpd ODB page. Should be consistent now with odbedit. Have a look if it works for you.

The function mhttpd_init() scans the custom page and installs handlers etc. for each modbxxx
element. If you create an modbvalue dynamically in your code, this is probably done after you
called mhttpd_init(), so the function has no chance to modify the dynamically created element.

All makes sense to me. I agree to proceed with the refactoring.
One additional comment: In the 90's when I developed this code, locking was expensive. On a decent computer you could do a couple of thousand lock operations |

I implemented that fix. Thank you to Andreas. Creating "Custom" directory from the web now does
not have that problem any more.
