Scanners are just keyboard interfaces.
Scan the barcode, it types those characters, no special active X or anything, just any input field. It could do ajax to check and populate member info, or even refresh.

Is that something special or do all of them do that? Here is what I have: - CF app on remote server that maintains a membership database - Clients at several locations - Clients have the scanners attached to their computer, they connect to the server via a browser and internet connection If I can just get a form populated through the scanner that would be great, just can't imagine how that works, is there an ActiveX or Java Applet that connects the scanner with the HTML form?

Is that what you mean? (I got caught out with this. The alignment of the strip must exactly match what the scanner was designed for.) > Date: Sun, 10 Jan 2010 22:59:46 -0800 > Subject: [cfaussie] Membership Card Scanning Hardware > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > > I'm looking for a Membership Card Scanning Hardware solution to hook > into CF > > Not sure how that would work, I guess it would have to be connected to > the server?
