Hi
Is it possible to run a script that will minimise your browser and then allow you to do a screen capture of a rectangular area of you screen..
Thank You..
Not in javascript. And probably not in flash or Java either without extra permission. It would be a security risk if web pages could minimize your web browser and take screenshots.
in facebook, they using flash to capture video using webcam. since it can control hardware directly from webpage, maybe can make screen capture using flash?
Isn't webcam a special thing with flash? If you right click on a flash area and choose settings there is a tab for camera.
In Java you can sign a Java Applet so it get more rights. But if you don't pay a lot of money and get a trusted signature, the user will get a window that asks if he really wants to grant permission each time the applet loads. Maybe it's possible but probably not easy do.
I heared about that but i think is not possible to do with java script or flash. i am interesting about this ....
I will research Flash.. But if its running in the browser it may be locked in and will not be able to do a screen capture of another desktop app..
I may have to write a wee screen capture app that can FTP the screen shots to my server ..
Thank you..
