    serial port - on web site?

    Is it possible for a serial port function to be accessed from a web browser? So that the user can access the data of certain device through serial port on web site.

    Sure. SerProxy is one program that maps TCP<->Serial. It's pretty trivial in VB. Open a serial port and open a TCP port. When you get data on one, send it out the other. Add bells and whistles (like user-selectable ports on both sides).
    The most difficult part of developing a program is understanding the problem.
    The second most difficult part is deciding how you're going to solve the problem.
    Actually writing the program (translating your solution into some computer language) is the easiest part.
    Please indent your code and use [HIGHLIGHT="VB"] [/HIGHLIGHT] tags around it to make it easier to read.
