Hi,
I'm trying to find out how I could could communicate with the IR tower
and RCX
using Director shockwave 8, so then I can use a web page to controll it,
I've
seen the eight ball website, but it dosn't explain very much about how
the RCX
is linked to the web server. I would prefer to do it on the mac, but it
dosn't
matter if it's not possible.  Is there a protacol that can be imported
into
director to controll the IR tower, I've done this before to controll an
LED
machine via a website and serial cable before. But not the IR tower. Any
help
would be brilliant, kind regards

These two web sites have all of the details about communicating with the
RCX.  Assuming that you can open a serial port and send/receive some
bytes, it shouldn't be very difficult...

I posted some more detail on the specific case of sending an RCX message
here:
