    Okay, one step back …
    Your data is stored in your mysql database, right? How is this data stored there? Did you program a script? Or are you using a script/system from the internet? Maybe there already is some kind of a backend you could use?

      Yes, correct

      It’s a couple of temperature sensors which are written to the MySQL DB via a .py script.

        serving it up via Apache/MySQL/PHP.

        I can help modify the scrip that servers up the data for viewing and instead of returning HTML it could easily return JSON. That would be step one. To help I would need to see your php files and know what url you are using to access the PHP page. either PM them to me, or point me at a repo.

        Step two would be writing a MM module that gets the JSON and displays it right. I may be able help here too.

          @izanbard Of course if you already have a webpage with exactly the right stuff on it, then you could use the iframe module.
