Working on Restarting the WebCam

As I have moved office, the webcam that I had operated from there needed to shut down. However, thanks to our IT support I have gotten another PC and am setting up now the webcam at its old location. There appears to be a problem with missing DLLs; I am investigating and hope to have soon agian the cam up and running. Stay tuned1!

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.
