I will be setting one up next week so should have more for you then. But there really isn't much for PHP to do here. Basically you need something like camstream to regularly create an image somewhere and then a little meta-refresh page that reloads that image. You are unlikely to be able to stream out the video feed in any sort of realtime fashion unless you have a whole lot of bandwidth going into this daycare. The best you can do is most likely to update the image every couple of seconds.
You can find camstream here: http://www.smcc.demon.nl/camstream/index.html I am assuming you have the right kernel driver for your webcam? Assuming a USB cam, see: http://www.smcc.demon.nl/webcam/ -Rasmus On Sun, 3 Mar 2002, karthikeyan wrote: > Hi All, > > I am trying to develop a web site for daycare and would like to support > web cam where users(parents) can login and see what their child is doing. > > I have PHP, Apache, Linux Setup.
