You are probably going to need flash or java to do this and I have never heard of anyone doing this, probably for the following reasons

A. Try writing your signature with your mouse. Kinda doesn't look anything like your pen signature does it.

B. Storing other people's signatures as images on your server sounds like a security liability on par with storing social security numbers.
