How to create your own webpage for the PIC32 ethernet starter kit

Hello

I have a PIC32 Ethernet Starter kit and I am doing its ethernet programming. I have downloaded the TCP/IP demo code and it is working fine. I am able to open the http://mchp website and even controlling on board led's from the website.

Now I want to make my own website and then make a code for it so that i can access it using pic32 ethernet starter kit. I am cool in making basic web pages but dont know how to do its coding in pic32 ethernet starter kit. I want to make a web application so that I can control on board leds from website . I have searched a lot about it on google but everything is bit confusing.

Does anyone have any experience in this. Please help. Thanks.!

Take a look the following presentations from Microchip and I am sure you will find what you are looking for:

TCP/IP Networking Part 1: Web-Based Status Monitoring
TCP/IP Networking Part 2: Web-Based Control
TCP/IP Networking Part 3: Advanced Web-Based Control

Hi Charles I have gone through the links you have given and I got the basic idea.
Now lets say I want to make a web application to control the led's on board, so i'll have to make a web page with proper dynamic variable and everything. Then what next, I mean I can make changes in the customapp.c according to my requirement but what i'll have to include in main.c ? what are the other files i need?

In general, you need the following things:
1. create your webpages with dynamic variables and use MPFS2 software to pack webpages into MPLAB project
2. Obviously you need include TCP/IP stack in your project (either binary or source code)
3. In main you need initialize TCP/IP stack (call StackInit function)

BTW, do you have PIC32 Ethernet Starter Kit II or PIC32 Ethernet Starter Kit? If you have Kit II, you probably want to look MPLAB Harmony software framework. Otherwise, you can download Microchip Libraries for Applications (MLA) . Once you install the library, there's a doc named help_mla_tcpip.pdf. It contains all information you need.

I have PIC32 Ethernet Starter Kit . I have downloaded the MLA and I got the help file. You said that I need to include TCPIP Stack in my project, by this you mean to say that I need to include all the header files in TCPIP Stack folder or just TCPIP.h
Can you please describe what are the files i need to run my project?

For the sake of simplicity, just include all source files under "framework\tcpip\src" folder in your project, also make sure the compiler's include search path contains "\framework\tcpip" directory.

The absolute path of my installation is "c:\microchip\mla\v2015_08_10\framework". Anyways, you need include all TCP/IP stack source code in your project. Some code may not be relevant to what you're doing, but it seems you are a beginner for this type of work, so include all of them and give a try. If it doesn't work, probably you have to get a tutor or colleague to help you out step by step.
