hi,

webcam on a room, takes picture every now and then, php page refreshes, shows the new snapshot of the room?

any ideas for a video cam?

hope you could give me a start where to look at.

do i make the functions in c++? call windows APIs?

i do not have a webserver, my site is just being hosted..., which means, i can't upload the new file!

thanks,

Power toys for XP has some REALLY easy to use webcam software that sits in the background and takes a pic every few seconds(whatever u set it to) and saves the picture to the directory of your choice.
