I decided that there was no reason I couldn't continue work on the software as I waited for the hardware to show up. There is now a simple timer that runs each zone for 10 or 15 minutes, depending on the selection. This will probably be the first edition actually in use, unless I can get the next part figured out in a week and a half. While that is neat, the real excitement is in what I am working through now.
The issue previously was the ability to push the whole webpage from the esp to the browser. I have managed to put the html file in my Dropbox, and call for it as an html object, and have the full page available. The problem is that as an object, it has it's own window inside the browser, and I can't manage to set the height to 100%. Width sets no problem. So I have a 400 pixel tall box from one side of the browser to the other, with a scroll bar on the side. I found some reference to the fact that the <html> tag needs to be set to 100% with css, but I have not managed to make it work yet. Input is welcome.
Related; I don't know if the button responses will report to the esp from an object hosted elsewhere. May be another hurdle.
