Hi Rasmus and Others,

  Thanks for your info I will look into those link you have provided.

  How do you think yahoo is able to do it so beautifully.  When i click web
cam in Yahoo Chat it opens a pop up window and says connecting to the server
and then it shows up web cam picture and it is pretty good.  Can I achieve
something like that in my web site.

  Regards,

karthikeyan.
