The camera should come with a prog to take a snapshot. Write a batch file that takes a snapshot, then uploads it to your web server. Write a batch file that calls the first batch file every 55 seconds, OR make it a timed job via cron. Add javascript to the web page to call the new graphic every 60 seconds and swap it in after it is finished loading. The five-second difference is to ensure that small delays will not cause the same picture to be reloaded again. If you have loads of space, you could keep an archive; otherwise I suggest overwriting the existing image each time or maybe alternating between two names. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
