JavaScript - Ajax Webcam?
Hello,
I am looking to created a login system where a user will take his/her photo via webcam in browser and that picture taken should be related to that user; under a specific timestamp, for example, if my user name is username and I logged In, the system will note my time and by taking a photo (either auto or by clicking a button in browser) and will store that picture in a folder under a unique name related to that customer and the time he logged in, I am stuck how to connect web cam to browser (desirable ajax etc not flash) and then photo taken and stored in a folder with unique name etc anybody did something like this before? help appreciated. Similar TutorialsHi all First post here. Hope someone can help. I have a webcam that is using ftp. I have a script that works for about 10 or less refreshes most of the time then stops. The page I have it uploading to is Here . The code is.... [CODE] <body> <script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript"> newImage = new Image(); function LoadNewImage() { var unique = new Date(); document.images.webcam.src = newImage.src; newImage.src = "http://www.qsl.net/2d0drm/cam_1.jpg?time=" + unique.getTime(); } function InitialImage() { var unique = new Date(); newImage.onload = LoadNewImage; newImage.src = "http://www.qsl.net/2d0drm/cam_1.jpg?time=" + unique.getTime(); document.images.webcam.onload="http://www.qsl.net/2d0drm/tmp_cam_1.jpg"; } </script> <img src="http://www.qsl.net/2d0drm/cam_1.jpg" name="webcam" onload="InitialImage()" width="320" height="240"> </body> [CODE] I wondered if someone could tell me why it does this? or even ammend any mistakes. I have tried other refresh scripts, but they seem to have refreshes where there are gaps, which is what i'm trying to avoid. I think it just goes out of sync with the uploading cam images. What I like about the script in the link above is(so I believe), it holds the last image until another uploads, so eliminating the gaps. Thanks if you can help Paul Hi. i was given a task to set up a simple website to display a picture send by IPcamera to survey a construction site. I found a sample code to do such thing, but there is one problem. IP camera sends pictures with different filenames. I would need some way to pass a filename of the newest .jpg picture to this script, or a way to simply show the newest .jpg in certain folder without defining a file name? Im not sure if this question should be in javascript forum or do i need php for this. Anyway thanks in advance, if someone is kind enough to give advice. Hey guys, I am new to this forum and not extremely experienced with javascript but I know the basics. Anyways, I am trying to create a site similar to this one: Internet Explorer 6 but instead of using an image file like the creator did I would like it to repeat live video from the computer's webcam. I was looking at some webcam plugins and the javascript GetUserMedia function but can't get them to work. Does anyone know if this is possible, and if so how to go about doing something like this? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! I was given this bit of code: Code: <img src="current.jpg" name="refresh" width="306" height="408">
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
image = "current.jpg" //name of the image
function Reload() {
tmp = new Date();
tmp = "?"+tmp.getTime()
document.images["refresh"].src = image+tmp
setTimeout("Reload()",1000)
}
Reload();
// -->
</script>
to refresh a webcam image. I want to know what it means--how often is it set to refresh? I don't know javascript so I can't tell. Is it set to refresh whenever the image is new? or what? I would like to move away from my meta-refresh page-in-an-iframe method of refreshing my webcam if I can. My cam uploads a new image every 5 seconds. I need code that would allow the new image to be seen. Will this code do it? I tried it and it doesn't seem to refresh that often. So what does it do, and can it be tweaked? Im not sure what type of script it is, but another site i saw had a webcam chat room that was a swf file. I know that flash, but where can i get a script for a Webcam chat room to set up on my site. Thanks Hi, I'm trying to get my webcam feed embeded as a flash object. I have the url to the swf generated by the webcam software. If I copy and paste the url into IE's address bar, the webcam shows. However, the same url embeded into html does not work. This directly in IE address bar works. But doesn't in any other browser: Code: http://ipaddresshere/axis-cgi/mjpg/video.swf?resolution=320x240&camera=1 I've looked through the code from the webcam (Axis) admin page and copied the code for the flash option. Here is the code: Code: <html>
<head></head>
<body>
<script language="Javascript">
var width = "320";
var height = "240";
var width_height = 'width="' + width + '" height="' + height + '"';
var view_NeedFlashPluginTxt = "You need a Shockwave Flash plugin, get it from:";
document.write('<EMBED src="http://ipaddresshere/axis-cgi/mjpg/video.swf?resolution=320x240'+'&camera=1" ' +
'quality=high bgcolor=#000000 ' + width_height +
' TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" swLiveConnect=TRUE' +
' PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash">' +
'</EMBED>' +
'<NOEMBED>' + view_NeedFlashPluginTxt +
'<a href="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/">Macromedia</a>.' +
'</NOEMBED><br>');
</script>
</body>
</html>
and this is the html the Javascript outputs: Code: <EMBED height=240 type=application/x-shockwave-flash pluginspage=http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash width=320 src=http://ipaddresshere/axis-cgi/mjpg/video.swf?resolution=320x240&camera=1 swLiveConnect="TRUE" bgcolor="#000000" quality="high"> </embed/> Can anyone spot anything wrong with the code or perhaps suggest why it isn't working? Hi, I am hoping I just need to be pointed in the right direction with this. I have Page1. When Page1 body onloads it uses Ajax to call PartA Within PartA I have a message board so members can write messages which will be sent to my database in PartA[1] and immediately posted for view on to PartA[2]. As I want to have my request to the server updating regularly I want to have PartA[2] on a timed loop to refresh - I do not need the content of PartA[1] to refresh. So the order of events would look like this: Page1 | onload call | v PartA / \ V V PartA[1] PartA[2] (loads once) (constantly refreshes) What I am not sure about is that I have <body> and <head> attributes in Page1 only. I have already used my body onload to call PartA (and can't use it to call PartA[2] before PartA has loaded anyway). I do not want the user to have to click a button or do anything to call up PartA[2]. So my question is how would I get PartA[2] to automatically load within PartA? I hope I have made this clear, but if I haven't let me know and I will try again. hi; This is my first post and am abit stuck. I used JQuery AJAX to get data from a different page and show it in my div. This all works fine but now i want the page collected by AJAX to execute a Javascript function which is in the page which request the AJAX page. I have this so far but its not working. This is in the AJAX-ed page. Code: <a href="#" onClick="change_postcode(prompt('Please Enter Your Postcode', 'SW10')");
)">SW10</a>
And the page which requested the AJAX page. Code: <script type="text/javascript">
function change_postcode(postcode){
$('#view8').html('<p><img src="http://www.MySite.com/images/loading.gif"/><br />Loading! Please Wait...</p>');
$('#view8').load("http://www.mywebsite.com/include.php?inc=Events&when=&postcode="+postcode);
}</script>
I though about using top but that didn't work. Code: <a href="#" onClick="top.change_postcode(prompt('Please Enter Your Postcode', 'SW10')");
)">SW10</a>
How can i get my AJAX page to execute a Javascript function which is in the page which contains the the AJAX page. Thankyou all for reading my post Paul P.S Am very sorry for my way with words. i have a html wich i am working on .. Code: <html>

now my problem is the password is not sent to the perl script i basicly modified an ajax from another form to do this form. when the "go" is pressed the username is sent and a string is recived and devided into the form inputs.. all i need to do now is send the password along with the username the username variable is "u" i would like the password variable to be "p" any ideas I need some help with some javascript I am trying to put on an IF forum. http://s7.invisionfree.com/AJAXTEST/index.php At the very top, you will see a link called "on this link". It is an ajax code. If you click on it, a blank alert box comes up. However, if you go he http://commx.info/will/test.html and click on the same link, the alert box has the text I am looking for. It uses the exact same code, so I can't figure out why it works on a plain page and not on an IF forum. Does anyone have any ideas? The code is Code: <html><head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"><script>
function callback(serverData, serverStatus) {
alert(serverData);
}
function ajaxRequest() {
var AJAX = null;
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
AJAX=new XMLHttpRequest();
} else {
AJAX=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
if (AJAX==null) {
alert("Your browser doesn't support AJAX.");
return false
}
AJAX.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (AJAX.readyState==4 || AJAX.readyState=="complete") {
callback(AJAX.responseText, AJAX.status);
}
}
AJAX.open("GET",'http://commx.info/accounts/codes/shout/ipb13/getChatData.php?lastID=0', true);
AJAX.send(null);
}
</script>
</head><body><a href="javascript:ajaxRequest()">on this link</a></body></html>
I was wondering if someone would have the time to talk and help explain some Ajax things to me... slowly. I'm trying to make my web sites more dynamic. Like I just need someone I can bounce ideas off and they can walk me through step by step on how to do them. Thanks Shelby Hello everyone. I was working on a ajax function and I can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong here. I'm kinda new with the prototype method I was wondering if I could get some help figuring out what I'm doing wrong here exactly and how I can fix this. Any help on this would be wonderful. Thanks, Jon W Code: function createAjax() {
if(!this.http && window.ActiveXObject) {
try {
this.http = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP" || "Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
catch(e1) {
this.http = false;
}
}
if(!this.http && window.XMLHttpRequest) {
try {
this.http = new XMLHttpRequest();
}
catch(e2) {
alert("Sorry we was unable to make a request between your browser.");
}
}
}
createAjax.prototype.request = function(url) {
var rmd = Math.random();
this.http.open('get', url+"&rmd="+rmd, true);
this.http.send(null);
this.http.onreadystatechange = this.responseHandler;
}
createAjax.prototype.responseHandler = function(obj) {
if(this.http.readyState == 4) {
document.getElementById(obj).innerHTML = this.responseText;
}
}
function ajax(url, obj) {
a = new createAjax();
a.request(url);
a.responseHandler(obj);
}
var doAjax = new ajax('ajax.php?name=jon','content');
Right for day's i've searching for a jQuery/js/ajax script that opens like facebooks box where you can delete things update posts and so on... But i don't want that facebox thing i want a tut where i can buy things that will insert into the database and delete things and sooo on... I've made the box i just want the script for it.... I'm not good with js/jQuery/ajax.... Thanks. hello all, I am trying to see if the w3schools example works on my site with a collapsible panel. here is what I have: Code: <script type="text/javascript">
function getXMLcontent() {
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
}
else
{
xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
document.getElementById('CollapsiblePanel1').style.visibility = 'visible';
document.getElementById("CollapsiblePanelContent").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
xmlhttp.open("GET","showfunction.php?fname=" + document.getElementById('functions').value, true);
xmlhttp.send();
alert("showfunction.php?fname=" + document.getElementById('functions').value);
}
</script>
the panel shows up as a thin grey line because no text is being thrown into it from the 'responsetext' property. I don't really know anything about what I'm doing. Just trying to copy and paste what the website example is. is there anything else I should know about what I'm doing, that would at least tell me why I'm not getting the data back out of the server like I should be? the 'functions' element on the page is a dropdown box, but it is not inside of a form tag. does that make a difference since I am using 'GET'?? thanks! Hello, I am using javascript/ajax to get an adsense script from my server. The script is returned from the server inside <script> tags so it isn't quite as easy as throwing the script into the div after an eval(). I could parse out the <script> tags but it seems to me that there is an easier way to place this code into the DIV without having to do this. Any suggestions? hi everyone.. i am using ajax to change the banner background while pressing on refresh Note:it must be a background image because i will display data from database... http://www.graphicano.com/isis/nile_crown2.php please look at this link... my problem is: when i press refresh button in Firefox browser it changes the background and on pressing refresh again the background will change but in internet explorer 8.0 it changes the background only for the first time and on pressing refresh again the background will not change. how i can fix this problem ?? i want the user to press refresh at any time and the background will change.. not only for the first time? at the same time it must be a background image because i will display text from database... I was wondering if there's a quick and simple way to notify a user if an ajax connection is broken, for example you're calling a file, but due to your internet connection, the file cannot be relayed back to you, so the existed javascript code on the initial page you're on, notifys you of the problem. Any ideas? Hello all, I'm trying to use AJAX for password validation. I've used AJAX before successfully to read and write data back and forth from Javascript and php, but not at the same time. I seem to be coming to the conclusion that the XMLHTTPRequest object is not letting me send data to my php file with the open method and receive data from it with the responseText attribute at the same time. Am I correct? What can I do to get around this? Here's the Javascript function: Code: function pwTest()
{
var pwInput = document.getElementById("removalPassword").value;
var ajaxRequest;
try
{
// Opera 8.0+, Firefox, Safari
ajaxRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
}
catch (e)
{
// Internet Explorer Browsers
try
{
ajaxRequest = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
}
catch (e)
{
try
{
ajaxRequest = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
catch (e)
{
// Something went wrong
alert("Your browser broke!");
return false;
}
}
}
// Create a function that will receive data sent from the server
ajaxRequest.onreadystatechange = function()
{
if(ajaxRequest.readyState == 4)
{
pwGood = ajaxRequest.responseText;
}
ajaxRequest.open("GET", "pwtest.php?pw=" + pwInput, true);
ajaxRequest.send(null);
}
}
And here's the php code: Code: <?php
$string = "blam!";
$input = $_GET["pw"];
if ($string == $input)
{
echo "1";
}
else
{
echo "0";
}
?>
Thank you. Also, I realize that this isn't very secure, but it's only going to be on a local server and I'll encrypt the password once I have it working. |
