JavaScript - Webcam Chat
Similar TutorialsIm 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 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 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. 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! 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. 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? 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? Hey guys. Didnt know what forum to put this in, but i figured i would put it here. Basically im making an ajax chat client. I dont know if anyone here as ever looked at googles chat client code, but if anyone knows how to make one function the same way as it, I would love if you would help me figure it out. I tried making a chat client, but it ended up being slow, buggy, and you couldnt select text because the innerhtml was refresshing so much. So how can I make a good chat client like googles? Thanks! Hello. I'm currently playing with some projects, and one of them is creating a simple 2D chat, where users have an avatar, that they can move around and chat with. I want to do this with PHP and jQuery. Question here is, if I set it to auto-update the chat every 1 second, and get the new values in the database (if user has moved position), will it suck up too much bandwidth if there's 5 - 30 users online at the same time? I know there's other better ways of creating a 2D chat, but I'm just doing this for practice of my programming skills. I have developed one to one chat in asp.net. Now I wanted a gmail chat like feature in it. In left side of page, a list of online users should be available. When I click on a user, a new div should popup on right bottom corner with close and minimise buttons. When I click on another user , a second div should popup on right bottom corner of page but left to the first popup div. I want popping up of divs dynamically. The no of clicked users should decide the no of popped up divs. Also, for each division there should be a separate division ( inside the popped division ) whose innerhtml value is my chat text. And if three divs are popped up and if I close the second one, the third should get attach to first popup. Hope, you'll understand my requirements, and will provide a suitable code in javascript. Does anyone know of a good tutorial on how to make a good node.js chat? I need a chat that a decent VPS server can handle ~100 simultaneous users with and apparently I should be using node.js but have no experience with it. What should I look at? Thanks! So, I need help with a script that swaps out chatango chats and allows you to expand/shrink them. Here's the source: Code: <div id="chatWrap">
<div id="cbox"></div>
<div id="ccon">
<button onclick="switchChat();">Switch to <strong id="cnext">Chat Title</strong></button>
<button id="csize" onclick="resizeChat();">Expand</button>
</div>
</div><br />
<div id="chatNotice" style="display:none;">Note: When you switch chats, the expand/shrink button stops working until you reload the page. Hopefully this will be fixed soon. <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="javascript:get('chatNotice').style.display='none';">[Hide this Notice]</a></div>

There's also some CSS: Code: /* Chat Styling */
#chatWrap{
width: 235px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
#chat{
height: 300px;
width: 235px;
}
#ccon{display: none;}
#ccon a{
text-decoration: none;
display: block;
}
This is implemented at http://forums.dubhappy.com/ As you can see by the notice under the chatbox, after swapping out the chats, the expand/shrink button no longer works until you reload the page. Do you know how to fix this? I've spent way too much time trying to figure out why this was happening. Much thanks if you manage to figure out the problem. I want to make a chat-box so people can log in under a nickname and talk to eachother, anyone have any idea how i can go about doing this?
Hey guys. I made a chat client today (my first one and it's pretty sweet so far) I have a speed problem though http://xonicgames.com/hudson/chat.php Once there are ~20+ posts it starts getting slow (at least on my connection) It does an ajax request every 500 seconds (dont know if that should be slowed down or not) What can I do to speed it up? Thanks What is the most efficient type of chat to make? From what I see online most people use a database and limit the number of results they return, but I noticed that some chats, like google and facebook, for some reason are able to load the full chat and get results almost instantly. How do they do it? I would love to make a replica of a google chat and just redesign the way it looks. If anyone can help me with the javascript/php part of this, that would be great. thanks! Hi, I have a problem with max. memory usage, and I wonder what pingtime in a chat program is for, I imagine its to refresh to see if person is still there, but not sure, if anybody can explain. I have this on all pages where the chat is: serversession=1&pingtimes=15 I wonder if it makes any difference to change the pingtime, thanks Hello, I am very new to javascript, and I'm having a hard time finding a way to easily add some chat code to our website without manually adding it to every page. Here's the deal: I need to add this code to every page of our website: Code: <div id="cihfi9" style="z-index:100;position:absolute;"></div><div id="schfi9" style="display:inline;float:right;"></div><div id="sdhfi9" style="display:none"></div><script type="text/javascript">var sehfi9=document.createElement("script");sehfi9.type="text/javascript";var sehfi9s=(location.protocol.indexOf("https")==0?"https://secure.providesupport.com/image":"http://image.providesupport.com")+"/js/mrcuser/safe-standard.js?ps_h=hfi9\u0026ps_t="+new Date().getTime();setTimeout("sehfi9.src=sehfi9s;document.getElementById('sdhfi9').appendChild(sehfi9)",1)</script><noscript><div style="display:inline"><a href="http://www.providesupport.com?messenger=mrcuser">Live Support</a></div></noscript>
I would like the chat icon to appear at the top of each page next to our main menu links. Our main menu links are called from one javascript file. I would like to figure out a way to add this code to the javascript file, so I only have to add it once. The javascript file only has one line of code: document.write(all of our main menu links). Is there a way to add the chat code to the main menu javascript file so that the chat icon will appear on every page, or is this impossible? Thanks for your help! I have got a script for chat room from hotscripts however the author has left the site and I am not able to contact him. So if anyone here can guide me a bit? It is basically a php/ajax chat room script using javascript. It runs fine here is a demo: Code: http://sharinganuser.freeiz.com/Test/chat/ i have set it up properly and it is even using mysql database. My question is that I want to make log of what ever the chat is happening (even the private ones) as I am admin. I am very good at php and understand what he has done in php but I when it comes to javascript i am not a person for it. So if anyone can help me with javascript? Cause when I see the msg send button source code it shows onclick is javascript:void(0) means it is using a java script. And there are total of 4 js files used: Code: http://sharinganuser.freeiz.com/Test/chat/js/ Note: log saved in database only remains for 15 minutes or somewhat like that cause i checked the data the old conversation was gone so I am now trying to use PHP fwrite code. i know how to write and implement it but again it has to go in some js file where the send button is related and I am not sure which file and exactly where. So any help would be appreciated. Regards, Sorry if this post is very noobish, its because I am a noob. Ok, so I have a forum with Proboards and want to add a chat using the "headers/footers" but as Ive been having some trouble on my forum, I need the chat to have an admin panel (ban, warn, even see IP's if possible etc). I also need it to be streaming, not a refresh chat room. I cant seem to find a chat with this function anywhere, can anyone help? P.S I know you can have AddonChat with Proboards but that does not have the admin tools that I need and I cant afford to pay for these priveleges. If this is not possible, does anyone know any codes I could use with my AddonChat to at least give me some kind of admin control? Cheers xx Hi, Im not sure if this is in the right place, but anyway, what im trying to achieve is turning an x7 chat application into a paid to chat service, i know it can be done but im just not sure how to code it, what i was wanting to do is have an earnings bar that updates itself when a member types a line of chat and credits that user with the current line pot ie 0.01 per line written on the chat (example) Users current earnings 0.0001c current written line pot 0.0003 Hope this makes sense Can anyone help me please Thanks in advance Baz |
