Thank devchander

i saw this page..

but my problem is that I should collect the data using DAQ from the electrical feeder and connect it to the PC that has the program. So do I have to  put the program in the server on the web  if it is like that, how I run the program ??  

thanx

Creating a remote front panel for a LabVIEW application will allow a user to view and control the VI from a web browser. The VI itself will run on the host computer, but it will read data from and write data to the web server which hosts the web page. If you have specified for your VI under VI Properties >> Window Appearance that the Run button should be visible, then viewers of the remote front panel will have the ability to run the VI if it is not already running, since they will see the run button on the web page. The VI only has to be open (i.e. loaded into memory) to be viewed from the remote front panel.

If I were you, I would create a very simple VI for test purposes only and go through the steps in the document linked above. It's really a short process, and this would allow you to play around with it and see what it can do. I hope this helps!

hi hmd,

I'm not sure what you mean when you say you tried to change the web page to your server. Did you move the hmtl file that was created in your LabVIEW x.x\www\ directory to your server? What did you do exactly?

In any case the web page will have to be hosted by a computer running LabVIEW that has your VI loaded into memory. If you have a web site hosted by another web server, and you want people to be able to view your LabVIEW remote panel from that site, then you should link the address that LabVIEW provided (http://computername/phase%203.htm) from your main site or display it in a subpanel of your website.

I hope this explains a little.
