Nettalk webserver and QR codes question

[ViggoPoulsen]

Hi
Here is what I want to do:

I build a webserver. Let's say the address is http://800.800.800.1
I already know that I can select mobile with this parameter:  http://800.800.800.1:88/?_mobile_=1
But can I send another information as parameter to use in the program, like this:  http://800.800.800.1:88/?_mobile_=1/?_name_=Viggo   (and how do I detect this in my program)

Let's say this is possible, then I want to put this line http://800.800.800.1:88/?_mobile_=1/?_name_=Viggo into a QR code, take a fresh smartphone, scan this QR code and see my program running.

I have a link to a homepage where I can generate QR codes with text, but will a smartphone automatically go to the webpage in the QR code without having to install anything first ?

I'm going to buy my first smartphone. What a nightmare, too many to select from. I guess I will go for an Android thing. Does this sound as a good idea together with a Nettalk server ?

Hi Viggo,

If you create a QR code as a URL (not text), yes smartphones (or any QR code reader) will go directly to the URL. The URL of the QR Code can be pretty much anything, eg.

http://mywebsite.com/?_mobile_=1&name=Something

or

http://200.200.200.1/?_mobile_=1&name=something

Regarding phones, iPhones or Androids will work nice with nettalk (both browsers are built on webkit).

Regards
Bill
