    Also I think you didn't get the full idea that I am working on..
    The keypad is wired into different circuit that is using it... I need to monitor this key pad and check which button was pressed... to get the idea please see this pseudocode to get the idea:

    The keypad is implemented this way: pin1 & 2 are the driving lines; pins 10 - 12 are sensing lines
          pin 1    pin 2
            |        |
    pin10--pwr------ |----
            |        |
    pin11--tUp-----tDwn--
            |        |
    pin12--fan-------|----
            |        |
    

    to detect which button is clicked I have to do this way:

    while(true){
          if (pin 1 == low){
            if(pin10 == low)
                pwr is clicked;
            else if(pin 11 == low)
                tUp is clicked;
            else if(pin 11 == low)
                fan is clicked;
          }
          else if (pin 2 == low){
            if(pin 11 == low)
                tDwn is clicked;
          }
    }

    @allObjects I don't think I get that
    take it easy.. I am still so new to the code (in fact I just found about it today). I don't know how the code structure and how it operates ! Though I am experienced with arduino...
    I don't know how the code loops! And how I can make a routine for my logic.. And whether it is possible to serve a web page and watch a hardware concurrently?!

    So can you please elaborate more?

    @Gordon
    is it possible to make a function that always loops? and whenever the user request the page it can answer with the page as well?

    The keys I am watching are implemented as keypad, and to monitor what key is pressed I need to watch the driving pins and which pin of the sensing pins has changed.. I have the logic and I can simply convert it to code. But is it possible to make an event listener for these changes and serve the web as well?

    P.S. I don't need to update the page while it is still open..

    I am trying to use the 8266 alone. It is ok to do some tests with the current firmware..

    No I don't need to update the page while it is still open. I just need to update the variables and once I refresh the page I see the new values

    Hello everyone...
    I am new to this forum, I hope I can add more value here.

    I have a question regarding a project I am working on.
    I am developing a remote controller using an ESP8266 and interfacing with some simple electronics to my hardware I want to control. I want to interface with the user using a webpage obviously.
    In the beginning I started to do the development using the esplorer tool and lua scripting. But that was very not helpful and can't give me all the features I wanted. Then I found this amazing javascript interpreter that may give me what I need. So I have some questions for you guys.

    I want to control a wall-mounted device that controls my AC. The device has some interfacing buttons (power, fan, tempUp and tempDown).
    I want to make the device controlled by the web interface as well as the device interface itself.
    developing the webpage is easy and I could follow the tutorials easily. But is it possible to update the content of the web interface when a button is clicked? I mean if someone turned on the AC, when I go to the webpage I can see the status as "ON" and if someone changed the temperature I can keep track of how many times he clicked the button and update the temp variable in the controller?

    To sum up, I want to make the variables for the webpage controlled by the hardware as well as the user from the PC.

    BTW I made all the interfacing hardware and I just need to program my 8266.

    Thanks
