Can anyone direct me to a working example of a simple to use esp-idf to run Html code?

Code: Select all

<div class="slidecontainer">
            <input type="range" min="1" max="100" value="50" class="slider" id="myRange">
          </div>
Please guide me
Thank you

Hi Thanyasit,
Please take a look at http_server examples: GitHub: http_server examples

You may use the restful example to build a web API and a frontend (pretty advanced).

Or use the simple example which is probably the one for you.

I tried adding it but it still wrong.
Which API should I use?
Can you create an example?

What do you expect to happen with this bit of HTML? I'm not sure what you mean, since I don't normally think of "running HTML". You can parse it and display something on a user interface (such as within a web browser). So if you're asking how to present a slider to a user from your ESP32 code, there's so much missing (what interface does your user see, how are you driving it, etc) that makes your question hard to answer.

If you're trying to send this to a web browser, presumably as the response to an HTTP request (which may or may not have been made over a TLS connection), then this is just a chunk of text that requires no special processing on the ESP32. You do, however, have to place it in a larger content, and a standalone <div> block isn't likely to be very meaningful to that web browser (HTML documents have a larger structure, of which <div> is but one possible component).

As for the immediate errors you showed, you're trying to initialize a C string that's part of a structure:

Code: Select all

   .user_ctx  = "<div class="slidecontainer">
            <input type="range" min="1" max="100" value="50" class="slider" id="myRange">
          </div>"
}
This sets .user_ctx to "<div class=", followed by a keyword slidecontainer (which C does not recognize), followed by another string constant ">\n<input type=", and so forth.

If you're going to use a large string constant like this, you need to quote your embedded quote delimiters.

Code: Select all

char *a = "this is a very \"long\" string that contains some some embedded HTML: <div class=\"slidecontainer\">\n<input type=\"range\"...";
But I think you need to address the original question: what do you mean by "run HTML code"? And what do you expect to happen? That's not clear from your question, and will help with followup answers.

I am a beginner
I want to do a PWM Slider HTTP Web Server using Esp-idf.
Like the video below
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-NFdMXA0H4&t=167s

But I have no knowledge of web server and html at all.
What more should I study?
Please guide me
Thank you
