    Good afternoon everyone,

    Being a novice programmer (if you can even call it that) I would like to know if the following is possible.

    I would like to record 60 seconds of video from any webcam direct onto my server through a webpage.

    So essentially, a surfer could visit my page and if there webcam is connected, they would see themself on the page, then they could click a button "record" and record whatever they're doing to the server in a folder /users/webcam1.wmv or something.

    Is this possible? Can it be done in PHP? Any estimation on costs?

    Thanks.

    That's the base of cam chatting :rolleyes: :D . Nothing is impossible although I believe it would be alot easier to use Java to do it, not javascript :p .

    Hope I helped.
