Abstract

This paper describes a set of PHP based tools created to develop applications for instrumentation remote control through Web browsers. These tools include a PHP module for GPIB (general purpose interface bus) control in a Win32 platform and a set of PHP classes that make easier the creation of GUIs in Web browsers for instrument control and data visualization. The Web AJAX technology allows asynchronous data loading making it possible to have in the same browser view different panels that are able to interact and to be updated independently.
