Hello Again,

I posted before about this subject and recently require urgent help to solve this problem once and for all. The problem is saving an a movie clip from the stage (webcam capture) to a server via php.

What I have is basically this…

[http://www.flashcomguru.com/index.cfm/2005/8/26/Taking-video-snapshots-from-a-live-webcam-feed](http://www.flashcomguru.com/index.cfm/2005/8/26/Taking-video-snapshots-from-a-live-webcam-feed)

But when a user clicks on the snapshot button I want it to be able to save to my server (No FMS) via a php script of some sort.

Im pretty good with php, but i dont understand how I can get the image data from the stage, to the script where it will be saved on the server.

ANY help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!!!
