At the 4D Road show a few years back Add or someone from 4D in California did a
presentation on using the camera and microphone from inside a 4D application.
It used a web area and some javascript code libraries that provided camera and
microphone access. You could take pictures, record video and record sound.
I would search the Knowledge Base for a Tech Note on this. Or possibly Tim
Penner will remember this and have a direct reference to where to find this
example code.
