FlexSim Webserver Example

Attached is a simple PHP website that shows an example of how you can interact with a FlexSim webserver through a custom webpage instead of just using the default webserver html interface.

The website also demonstrates the job scheduling capabilities of the webserver instead of just directly interacting with running instances of FlexSim.

To set up this website, you'll need to use Apache or IIS. Personally, I used a Bitnami WAMP stack (https://bitnami.com/stack/wamp) to easily install and configure Apache, MySQL, and PHP on Windows.

Within the directory is a file called "create_database.sql" that has SQL commands that you need to execute on the database to create the database structure used by the website. (The Bitnami WAMP stack includes phpMyAdmin, which is a web interface where you can interact directly with the MySQL database and execute the SQL commands.)

Anyone is welcome to use any or all of this code to develop their own custom websites to interact with the FlexSim webserver.
