> > It uses Xvfb (an X virtual frame buffer - headless :)) > http://www.semicomplete.com/blog/geekery/xvfb-firefox.html There looks like there could be several traps using this method for Aarons needs. How do you unload the firefox page, or does it just get overwritten with the next page requested? How do you start firefox without chrome? How do you pipe the screenshot to Imagemagic? Does firefox squawk when the page is finished loading? How to get the screenshot? Is the full process less or more CPU/memory/time intensive than the other route? Dang - you must have solved a lot of questions ;) Way more than i've broached here! -- Michael All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well - Julian of Norwich 1342 - 1416 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ NZ PHP Users Group: http://groups.google.com/group/nzphpug To post, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe, send email to [email protected] -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
