Hi all,
I have the following jscript code to acquire images from a camera in ie7. It works fine but stores images in bmp format. Can anyone tell me how to get it to store jpeg format changing the filename in MyPic.Transfer to ".jpg" doesn't do the trick. It will just save Nothing!
thanx in advance
objWia = new ActiveXObject("Wia.Script");
MyDevice = objWia.Create(null);
AllPics = MyDevice.GetItemsFromUI(0,0);
MyPic = AllPics(0);
MyPic.Transfer("pic.bmp",false);
delete objWia;
wia image format

Thanks...
I 've searched a lot before I posted my question here and found a lot of examples in vb and vc but none on a scripting language.
Does anybody know of any other way to get a picture from a camera in IE and store it in jpeg

I messed with some WIA stuff before. Here is a good vb reference but I'm not sure how you would implement it in Javascript
Item item = device.Execute
Dim item As Item = device.ExecuteCommand(CommandID.wiaCommandTakePicture)
For Each format As String In item.Formats
If (format = jpegGuid) Then
Dim imagefile As WIA.ImageFile = CType(item.Transfer(format),WIA.ImageFile)
filename = GetFreeFileName
If (String.IsNullOrEmpty(filename) = false) Then
imagefile.SaveFile(filename)
End If
Me.picLastImage.Load(filename)
Return filename
End If
Next
