Hello,
I have kind of a unique problem in that I want to interface a webcam to a webpage, and the webcam's interface is through the serial port. The camera's functions are controlled via com1, and the camera's mount via com2; I am creating an application that will allow you to move the camera and look around our office. To do this, I just need to be able to send a few plain text strings (IE "a10", "b60", "zmt", etc.) down the server's serial ports. Can this be done? should I look for an alternative language? can I embed another type of language in the ASP to do this? (I know you can embed SQL, but how about other types of code?). Any information will be greatly appreciated.
