    Hi,

    I need to develop a web application in asp.net which can detect a USB device and capture its

    events...
    For example when a person access the web page and connects the device to his machine he shld be

    able to detect the device and shld be able to read or write into it.
    I wrote a java program using jusb and called that in an applet..though it worked it needed lot

    of client side configurations.

    My requirement is that there should not be any configurations in client side and things shld

    work smoothly.
    I know some one had done this in asp and javascript. but i don't know how its done.

    Please help...

    Remember it shld work in both windows and Linux.

    expecting a help at the earliest....

    hi,

    asp runs server side so that can't access the client machine, and as far as I know javascript can't access the file system nowadays so that can't do it. An activex control or java applet would seem to be your only choices.

    regards
