Cam{CAMERA}_{yy-mm-dd@hh`nn`ss}=== Broadcasting and Web Server ===The HTTP Server feature is somewhat problematic.  It is important to understand that each camera requires its own Port on the HTTP server.  Even though the web page creation wizard allows selection of multiple cameras, the Broadcasting settings are unique to each camera and each must have a unique port set.  If the user sets all ports to the same, the default camera will broadcast for all cameras on the web page.HTML "Stills" page:HTML page on local web server that refreshes still images.  Utilizes JavaScript.  The following code is embedded in the HTML page by the creation wizard.  This is the minimal code necessary to create the refreshing.1.
