title: Is there any way to send http requests from JS by pushing button, to a C++
body: <p>I am currently designing a GUI for a piece of hardware. We want the GUI to be able to be accessed over a browser. The browser would be displaying a map generated from C++ code, but I also need to send some params to the code that generates the map from buttons on the JS front end? Is there anyway to accomplish this. I have done a little research so far and know about web sockets and AJAX, but I am not entirely sure it is what I am looking for. In an ideal world I would be able to just send UDP packets, but my research tells me that is not possible, not is TCP. Is this correct?</p>
  
  <p>Thank's in advance for any help!</p>
