using PWM outputs after setting the value, is there a way to read what was sent?

to make the page look pretty (The aggressive part)

I wasn't commenting on your use of Ajax etc to update part of the browser page - that's a good idea. (If you have some spare time maybe you could teach it to the Arduino Forum developers :))

this is off the subject of PWM reading and related to AJAX and arduino:
from my page code I posted earlier, you see this line. the web browser will be using the spot to put what my javascript/jquery code spits out.
client.println("

Place Holder
");

the following javascript would be loaded to the browser using:
client.println(""); // get javascript for my arduino
the website could be any website you can store files on. I own this domain but it could be located anywhere
so for the javascript:

$(function() { // jquery run this once the web page is loaded
    setInterval(ReloadData(), 5000); // retrieves  data from the arduino every 5 seconds
});

function ReloadData(){
     $("#start")..load( "$data #Data" , function() {  // this is all that is needed to load the data into the container using jquery
         // we now have the page from the arduino and only snagged the code between <div id='Data'>......</div> and stores data in the  in the <div id'start'>...</div>
         // the data in each of the div elements is now accessible with simple jquery actions like:
         // var x = $("#A1").text(); // this will store the Text based value for Analog sensor 1 into variable x for processing further with javascript
         // additional processing of the page happens here. The Cool Aggressive stuff I have been mentioning
    }
}
