di_READ()
Replacement READ command issues a read/submit to multiple device types
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax

    di_READ([<cMethod>],[<cAction>],[<cCaption>]) --> nSuccessList

Arguments

    <cMethod> is the HTML Form method, i.e. POST/GET

    <cAction> is the URL of CGI, i.e. http://myhost.com/cgi-bin/myapp

    <cCaption> is the caption to appear on the HTML "submit" button

Returns

    nSuccessList is the sum of the devices handles successfully
    written to.  Only devices currently set to output are addressed;
    therefore, nSuccessList is always less than or equal to the current
    return value from di_setOutput().

Description

    Issues a READ to all devices enabled for output and returns a list
    of devices successfully implementing the READ.  For the screen
    device, use a standard READ; for HTML devices create a FORM around
    the GETLIST.  Specification of the METHOD, ACTION and submit CAPTION
    can be optionally specified as arguments for output to HTML devices.
    Other devices disregard the arguments.

    See the examples listed under the Examples menu heading
