Ok I am testing out yawcam on a home server website. I am running WAMP in an XP machine. I used frontpage to make the page just to test it out. but when I go to the site it says "OFFLINE". But if I just go to the webcam url it works. any ideas what I am doing wrong? besides using WAMP and frontpage.

Here is the URL I am trying to get working.
http://unclesampc.com/webcam/

in your yawcam page, the one where you specified the address and port of the webcam, it seems to me like you forgot a "/" at the end so when it tries to connect to the camera, it sends this link to the server : http://unclesam.com:777images.jpg and it's missing the "/" hence why it can't connect.

Nope still not working, Oh well I will just use the link rather then try to embed it into a site.

Use an iframe to include Yawcam's page into your page.
Search for iframe in the forum.

I still see the "/" missing in the page, are you sure you put it properly?

you can take a look at my working Iframes here : http://z3rc000l12.com/yawcam/index.html and a diffrent way to code your iframes in http://z3r0c00l12.com/yawcam/thomas3.html

Note : All cams will be offline... This is normal, they are not pointed to the right IP:Port
