    Hi,
    I've seen some sites doing this, but have absolutely no idea how to do it.
    What I want is:
    Someone is accessing my website, and if they turn on their webcam, they can see themselves on my website in a video/whatever frame.
    I know this is being done (live webcam or something), but I don't know how.

    If you know please post a link to some tutorial, some code, or anything.
    If I need to install something on my server, please let me know
    Thanks :)

    Most likely java or flash.

    Both can do this (as long as the users flash settings are set to allow webcam access)

    The best place to learn Flash stuff is Actionscript.org . There is a big added benefit in that their profile links are highly valuable for backlinks.

    Just don't spam them and don't add your signature/profile links until you have contributed a minimum of posts.

    You will find the info you need for webcam recording there, but you need to be prepared to learn Flash/actionscript OR pay someone there to do it for you.

    Nothing is free of both price AND effort:)

    visit: cr-c.org or jabbercam.com (as I understand you're looking for similar but less complex, cr-c.org might have it)
