I should warn you that opening the port as /string may not always
be a good idea, since the browser could send you binary data with
a POST method (for example), and you will want to send images as
binary data. Of course you can use READ-IO and WRITE-IO to
read/write binary data on a /string port, but shouldn't we avoid
those functions if possible?
YARWeS always used /binary ports to communicate with the browser.

Gabriele.
