Im receiving set of values from my xbee and I would like to make a simple page on the internet. However not a database that everyone can see. I want a simple page online that has these set of values shown there and that I can only access it. is it possible?
Can I store somewhere the values and get them uploaded on this page???
if you can access the .htaccess file you can add authentication. Also a php generated page could provide access using server variables for user/pass.
PHP can also store data to files & databases.
All depends on your server features and your coding ability ( HTML and/or php and / or javascript ).
I would have one php script that the arduino sends data to and the script simply appends a text file.
And you/users have a different php script to display the file contents.
any guidelines of how I can access the .htacess??? so you are saying on the program where Im receiving the xbee I should add the server to this php page ?? because I didnt understand that much. I'm sorry
PHP and htaccess files are all server related, nothing to do with the arduino or xbee.
PHP is a script that runs on the server,
htaccess files tell the server certain things about the directories that contain them.
any folder in your public_html or www folders can have permissions set by simply creating a **.**htaccess file. Google is littered with examples of stuff that can go in them.
Search for php authentication tutorial
or htaccess authentication.
Read up on the basics of how to use PHP and how it works, the syntax structure is similar to c++.
@nestafred: Do you mean that you want to serve your page from your Arduino? Or that you are serving the page from another machine and want to use data from the Arduino?
I have a loop which is reading values on a side with arduino , than these are sent on the other side to my laptop using xbees. now the ethernet shield is not working in any way possible i tried and tried and is giving me errors. so im thinking that these continous values that im receiving of saving them somewhere and upload them on a simple page, just to show these values on a simple page

On a side of what?

That is mot likely because you are doing something wrong.
i tried and tried and is giving me errors.
If you keep them, and the code, to yourself, you are the only one that can solve them. Share them, if you want help. The Ethernet shield can be made to work.
so im thinking that these continous values that im receiving of saving them somewhere and upload them on a simple page
First, you have to get the Ethernet shield working if you are going to upload data from the Arduino. If you are saving the values somewhere not on an Arduino, then you don't have an Arduino problem, so you are in the wrong place.
A "continuous stream of values" and a "simple page" really do not go together.
