Data--> Wi-Fi--> Web page

Hi,

My first post here, I would like to learn the basics of passing data via Wi-Fi to a web page.

I searched and found the tutorial on HID Control of a Web Page. https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/hi … a-web-page

Excellent tutorial, I would like to take this a step further and send and receive data via a Wi-Fi module to a web page.

Searched WiFi modules and there are plenty to choose from (almost too many).

I’m very comfortable with hardware development, but I would say very weak on the software side. Is there a reasonably easy way to get basic data to and from a web page via WiFi similar to the HID Control tutorial?

Can anyone suggest a WiFi module that comes with some level of support on the software side (some sort of pre-canned software that will expose the data in a way that will be easy to get into a webpage?

If I can get the data going to the PC, next step would be to do the same on an iPod.

All advice welcome

Thanks,
