Re: Minor help with ESP-13 Webserver Serial Shield

Ok, I think I've made some positive progress. Sorry about earlier, I didn't realize that I needed to change boards. I completely removed IDE 1.6.9, all my libraries (copied them somewhere else) and the ArduinoI5 directory in the user profile directory. Then I did a fresh install of IDE, and a fresh install off the ESP8266 package.
Just including the ESP8266wifi file before would crash, and now it compiles with the Generic ESP8266 board selected. I think what I'm missing here is how do I have the ESP8266 grab the data that's coming from the Arduino? That's where I'm really confused with all this.
Also this shield doesn't have a USB port on it, can I write to it through the USB port on the Arduino if I move the dipswitches to off? Sorry for sounding like such a newb, I'm doing great with the Arduino side of things, but this thing is just confusing me.
