Hi,![]()
I've been working on a webcam of my drive way at home. (Can't link you to the scripts for privacy, sorry!) At the moment the webpage with the images simply loads the image (eg. /webcam2.jpg) and then refreshes the image ONLY every 5 seconds. (the image only changes when the webcam detects motion) This works fine - except that if I have the webcam page open in the background while other things are happening I don't realize that the image has changed. Is there anyway using Javascript (or PHP) to have a noize played (a beep or something) everytime the image changes?I thought an easy way to do it would be to have the javascript watch the filesize of the image and when the filesize changes for it to play a beep.mid - I've searched the internet and I can't find any way to do this, not even if I use a Java applet for the webcam. Can anyone offer me any help? I'm surprised none of the webcam systems I've looked at have incorporated this feature.
Thanks in advance!![]()
