Is it possible to update the values of variables through web browser in listen mode?

[Anand]

hello,

I m using a soft-ap example from https://docs.particle.io/reference/firmware/photon/#softap-http-pages .
now, my question is that can i provide the values of variables from the same configuration page by adding few more text input fields ??

Please do help.

Thank you,
Anand
