The world that revolves around Caity Ross
Well, since I set up the webcam using the default page that EasyFreeWebCam provided, I thought I’d clag the picture on a page that fits in with the rest of my website (other than my blog of course, which has always been different. One day, it will all be the same. Maybe.
The original page of instructions I looked at (WebCamWorld) had a link to get this super-duper-sounding JavaCam Applet which seemed to do exactly what I wanted easily. However, I couldn’t get it to work even after following the instructions! Sod this, I thought, and looked on the Internet for summat else. I found this page, which said it uses EasyFreeWebCam and that there are problems with the JavaCam, but with help from http://www/irt.org, he worked out how to do it without using JavaCam, but just using a simple bit of JavaScript and posted the relevant code here. I copied and pasted and edited it (to make it valid Transitional XHTML) and now I have this page to show for my efforts.
I’ll probably take the default EasyFreeWebCam page offline eventually, but for now, it can sit there looking incongruous.
