Think a multiplayer game, except this is tracking multiple mouse cursor positions on the page.
www.doodlenow.com is an excellent example of something I want to accomplish.
When a user logs on to my page, I want his mouse position to be visible to every other user on the site, and I’m not expecting more than 5 people on the site at a time.
Anyways, does anyone have any tips or tutorials or just a push in the right direction of how to accomplish this, or can provide a simple demo of even tracking one other persons mouse position?
Also, will I need any special server technology to do this? I know php and mysql will be used to track the user names and such, but other than that, tracking the actual mouse positions and displaying them to other users…
Any help out here?
I’d really appreciate it.
