So I'm guessing that several iframes could be styled to look just like frames, but at least there would be <body></body> tags. http://www.w3schools.com/Html/html_iframe.asp

I always hated websites with frames, and I thought that the usage of frames was dying out, but I keep seeing people using them. What is the story? Are frames dead, despised, and obsolete? Thanks.

Has anyone here used the Microsoft documented webcam features that are listed here? I am looking at some Logitech webcam information and was referenced to this material. http://msdn.microsof...y/ff567802.aspx or http://msdn.microsof...y/dd389145.aspx The Logitech document was: http://www.filedropper.com/logitechuvcdriverpublicpropertysets

Well, I want to learn about the communication options that are available between a program running on a home pc and a webpage. I would like to have them pinging each other periodically with data requests and transfers possible in both directions. (my webpage does not have a fixed IP and of course neither does my cable modem) For the data interface I hope to use something that I happened to purchase recently: http://www.mccdaq.co...208-Series.aspx

Well, I can see that, but for a proof-of-concept programming exercise I wanted to write code that would provide automatic file transfers between a webpage and a home pc. The ip cameras seem appealing but are totally independent of the home pc and some of them seem to include complete software solutions (with bugs included). I want to also get other info from the pc -- such as discrete data (i.e. is the garage door open or closed, etc...).

The ip camera is probably the ideal solution -- but they are all much more expensive and add network issues which can really be a problem on a home network.

There are a variety of low-cost webcams but they are all intended for indoor desktop use. I'm sure the included software bundle is probably aimed at voip video-phone and YouTube. The CCTV video cameras can feed 100ft+ cables but need a video grabber/converter and are limited to 420 line television resolution. Maybe I should experiment with one of each? I'm not familiar with Flash/Actionscript. Another thought: inexpensive USB extenders claim to be able to support 100ft+ using Cat5 cable.

I am interested in getting a webcam working on my home computer and then writing some code to upload periodic images to my webpage. Has anyone here done that? I wish I could just get a camera and USB driver and write the rest of the code, but I'm afraid I will get stuck using some absurd "do-everything" software-bundle that comes with the camera. Ideally the camera would be located outdoors, however that creates several issues since USB is limited to a few meters of length and CCTV type cameras have lower resolution. I don't trust wireless. Opinions? Thanks.

I think Photoshop questions are more likely to get answers in the actual Adobe forum: http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop/general?view=discussions

Thanks, I will try to search through this thread. I tried going to... http://www.bbb.org/u...ted-businesses/ ...but they foolishly can only search by specific locations, and a name search for "Go Daddy" turned up nothing. I don't care where a web host is located as long as they are inside the USA. Edit-- Actually the web seems to be increasingly flooded with "fake" or obviously manufactured review sites.

"Host and DNS Discussion. All here and nowhere else"Here meaning this thread?So if I want to ask if there is a reputable "Consumer Reports" or BBB for web hosting companies is this where I ask the question? Where would I find this? Thanks.
