Hi All,

I need to implement a functionality where i need to store the snapshot of the form in html format along with the form values into the database.

How can i synchronize the process of taking the snapshot of the screen and then uploading that along with the form values.Is there any API's for getting the snapshot and storing in a temporary location and then uploading it just like an attachment.

I am not sure either this topic is correct in this forum.

If you have any idea on this,please help

Thanks in advance

Suresh

Browsers do not have the capability of either taking a snapshot of the screen, or uploading the source of the HTML page. Applets can do both, but it seems an odd thing to do. What is the purpose of that?

It sounds like someone who understands web programming needs to get together with your client to redefine the requirements for your project.

It's not unusual to want to track user activity and there are plenty of ways to go about it. I'm sure it wouldn't take long to come up with something that is both possible and acceptable to your client.
