[PHP] Barcode info anyone...

2004-08-05 Thread Dave Carrera
Hi List,

I know I can generate & print barcodes in php for my app :-)

But can I read the generated barcode into my php application and select the
associated item and if so what do you have to do to get it working.

I think that maybe the mouse cursor would be in a form field, scan the
barcode and the data from the barcode reader would go into the form field of
which I can issue a OnChange instruction, but I might be completely wrong.

Any pointers, urls, advice, hardware suggestions (UK Based) very much
welcome

Thank you in advance for any help

Dave Carrera

the input field should have the focus 
(cursor must in the field, this can made with javascript)
a barcode read is programable, if you scan an barcode 
the reader converts the barcode into digits (EAN13 2012345678905)
this code is writen in the input field. if the scanner is programmed to
automatically add a enter (char 13 i think)  you have your submit.

i have scanners from Metrologic Orbit

you easy test open notepad or under linux kwrite 
and scan
