I am new in Arduino Prograaming and I am trying to upload sensor data onto Emoncms website . I uploading data using GSM shield , EmonTx V2 Shield and Arduino duemilanove.  Im trying to send sensor readings from my CT sensor to the Emoncms web application in order to visualise my energy usage, ive got the correct readings appearing on my serial monitor but for some reason the live feed isnt appearing in the Emoncms application. Please if somebody could help in GSM shield Syntax for data uploading
