Camera Stopped

This afternoon, 15:38, the software for capturing the continuous image from my web cam stopped operating. My PC did have some trouble around that time, applications running sluggish. But I noticed the web cam failure just now... so am rebooting now, the camera should be up in a few minutes again.

How to embed the live webcam image in your web site

The following code shows how to put the web camera image onto your own site. Copy and paste the code below, and replace the parameters as needed:


<iframe src='http://creativetech.inn.leedsmet.ac.uk/_LiveCam/index.php?w=320&h=240' width='100%' height='360' scrolling='no' frameborder=0 > 

</ iframe >

Parameters:
w: image width,
h: image height,
height: frame height of the surrounding area, allowing space for a caption.

The picture will update itself automatically and dynamically as long as the web site page is displayed.
