How to make "Distance Learning Remote Laboratories"?

I use LabView to control/monitor storing of H2 and wish to allow users to control/monitor this lab via the Internet. After taking the "Distance Learning Remote...etc", one of NI's online tutorials, I thought this was trivial. Doing exactly as the tutorial says, all I achieve is a webpage showing a picture of my VI's panels. No interaction is possible. What have I done wrong?

Thanx, Anders

You don't mention which version of LV you are using. LV6.1 makes it
quite a bit easier to make the remoted panel interactive.

Prior versions are only capable of returning a JPEG of the panel. It is
possible to use CGI and other HTML generate or other techniques to make
the panel interactive, but frankly, it is not that easy. I'd highly
recommend upgrading to LV6
.1 if it is important that you have remote
control. Also be sure to read the licensing and determine how many
simultaneous connections you will need so that you can include that in
you decision.

Thank you! I use LV6.0, so that explains it.

Just a thought... did you right click on the panel to gain control of the VI
in your browser?
