Re: [PHP] php and java applets

Nah... Maybe we're both confused. Is this a java app you wrote or one 
that you found somewhere? If you know how to control the camera from 
java and you know how to work in java, you could build yourself a quick 
and dirty command-line java application, then feed it commands from php 
using exec or something similar.

I'm not sure what you're getting at.
Do you mean writing the Java code in the php page? I didn't know php 
could compile the code on the fly, can it? Or do you mean something else?

Dear all knowing list,
I am trying to control the movement of a camera in real time from the 
web. But I also need to make sure that only the user I specify can 
have control.

What I though I could do was this: launch a java applet from a php 
page parsing the session id. Then when the user adjusts the controls 
on the applet, a php page is loaded by the applet, sets the user 
session with the session id, then sends the control details back to 
the server and on to the camera.

I've given this a go with no luck. When I try to set the session id 
on the php script that the Java applet loads I get a permissions 
error (the perms on /tmp are fine). I'm not 100% sure I understand 
sessions, is my method utterly implausible? Does anyone have any 
better suggestions?

Thanks,
