I didn't have any luck getting this to work with dillio 0.8.6 and Firefox 3.5 on my WinXP machine via wireless. It seems that it launches from the programs directory on my SD card, but then just returns to the ContentLister without giving my PC browser any access to

Using a browser as gui and a web server as application was what I had I mind when toying with Xiliad. There was no scriptable gui then. It still is a viable approach with lots of possibilities...
Thanks for all the fresh ideas!

Hopefully, whatever approach you decide to take in the end (standalone app or browser/proxy server) it will work well for the latest firmware and wireless.
p.s. Actually the ideas are rather old (been floating around my head for over a year), it's just me whose "fresh" to the iLiad scene!
Oh, and as you make progress, I may have something to say about that too!
