- Sun Mar 29, 2015 5:34 am #12911 @nicoverduin There is a patch on GitHub to support Eclipse Arduino plugin:
https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/issues/2
I will merge it for the next release, meanwhile you can apply it locally to see if it is okay.

Fixed it. Great!!!

- Thu Apr 02, 2015 10:33 pm #13320 Is there a call or function to return the number of params that have been entered by the browser.

I'm using forms, and I want to know when the request has finished to save things to the eeprom. Only the number of fields completed is not known.

For a form where defaults are filled out I know there are 4, so I can count through the loop then act. For another form I can't so it would be useful to have a when var == server.paramscount() then....

Also what does client.flush() do?

Cheers!

...

No, you will have to scan the URL that the browser sent yourself.

The various parameters are probably separated by an & sign (something like &var1=123&var2=56). So you need some kind of loop:
- locate the & sign
- get the name of the parameter
- get the value of the parameter
- and again till the the URL is completely processed.

I am sure if you load at other Arduino example you will find something you can use.

Good luck.
