Fix #70

[lurch]

Untested, but in #70 (comment) @dpgeorge says that this should work 😉

I tested this on a Pico W and it works well.

Might I also suggest the following changes, to make it more user friendly:

• change the led init line to led = Pin("LED"), so it actually turns the built-in LED on and off
• add these two lines to the HTML that it sends (after the <p>%s</p>):

        <button onclick="window.location='/light/off'">Turn off</button>
        <button onclick="window.location='/light/on'">Turn on</button>

That gives you buttons to turn on/off via navigation to the correct page.

Thank you! 👍

See #66 and #71

        <button onclick="window.location='/light/on'">Turn on</button>

That gives you buttons to turn on/off via navigation to the correct page.

Surely it's easier to just use a href links, rather than relying on buttons with javascript onclick handlers?
EDIT: Which I've just done 😉

Ah, right, thanks for reminding me!

Yes, simpler to use a href. It's just that buttons look better 😄 although you could use CSS for the hrefs.

Tested on a Pico W with Firefox. It works.

Our examples are deliberately kept simple and bare-bones. They're intended to demonstrate the functionality of the underlying code, not HTML styling 😉
