    Hi all,

    I want to include a feature in a program in php whereby we can import images automatically from a document placed in a "Scanner".

    How can I interface the program with the Scanner so that it prompts the user to place the document in the scanner and finally imports it in the database or put it in new folder in the server.

    and if you have another idea to prompt the user to import documents.

    thanks for all.

    So just to be absolutely clear, this is a 'web app' you want to do, right? If so, it can't be done by PHP alone. In this instance, the PHP is a server side application that has no access to the client, basically.

    I would guess for this scenario, you're going to have to look at something like a Java applet or something.
