To fataly and Volly: Please accept my apologies. Im sorry i was harsh and rude.

Im glad the nudge helped! So have you now resolved your problem? If not then it would be helpful if you were to post your script.

1) On the Acer and Dell laptops available to me, the only element which prevents PixelGetColor from working is the BIOS placing the hardware into suspend, sleep, or hardware hibernation. 2) The event of the screen being on or off does NOT effect the running of any script or program. If anyone knows otherwise PLEASE let me know, as I have yet to discover otherwise. 3) try leaving the screen on....

Most laptops have the option in BIOS to have the hardware place the system into sleep, suspend, or hibernate (well, my Dell does...). you will need to go into the BIOS, and have a bit of a play. My advice is to make 1 change at a time, that way if something goes awry it is easy to correct. Make sure that you power settings in control panel are also set to not interfere with your script with the lid closed - again have a look, and make the adjustment that fit your requirements, and try it with the lid down. I do find it strange that you are using VNC but ask advice regarding the BIOS!

IF you insist on NOT searching the help files and the forum you are likely to remain stuck with your problem. Im not even going to give a lead in my reply since it appears you require some practice with trying new approaches to your problem. Please post back when you can demonstrate that you have tried another way of solving this problem...

My suggestion: prevent the user from opening the other child window......

Once you have made the required changes to your BIOS settings your script will work. Why are you monitoring pixels with the lid down? This sounds like some form of 'stealth' thing to me...

You seem to have good idea of how to achieve your goal. Please search through the example scripts threads and you will find that there is a lot of functions and UDFs which will assist you.

I assume you have used the help file and searched for send?

Make your life easier: Drop vista!

In general network switches generate such webpages from a small chip,in real time, and that explains the formatting. I'd advise you to examine what the page sends back to the switch in the address bar. I attempted to visit the address you've provided but (as one would hope) no page downloaded! Who makes the netswitch? What hints are in the user manual? EDIT:removed the massive quote.

Sorry but i didnt see a single use of stringinstr in the code sample in your post.If you post the code in which you are using stringinstr then it will help your quest. As for counters and the such, well im suprised you ask since you appear to have a grasp of C++, but, anyhow, the only way to learn is to play and experiment, make sure you save your snippets as you go, and you'll be able to refer back to it when needed.

[HINT] search the help file for stringinstr and file handling.[/HINT]

Perhaps it would help if the site your link points to has more than just adverts and a flash plugin!Sorry, but you can collect what information isnt there!

Seeing as there is no mention of any brand/make/model of webcam in your post, the reply above is aimed at ALL webcams.There is NO magic solution, aside from the VLC stream re-direction available in VLC.

Just my 2c worth: others are more likely to post a more complete solution based upon their actual experience of this. First find the DLL used by the webcam driver package, and use DLL call(look in help file of Scite) to collect the stream for diverting to your webserver. Expect to be using the FTP.au3 include file - search for forum for details of this as it is VERY handy - to send the stream over tcp/udp. 2nd, look at the media player extentions (or add-ons/plugins) as I know for XP there is one that is meant for this task so you can have your own internet radio station (have a search around the microsoft site - i would if i had the time).I dont recall if this is free or a purchase. OR have a look at VLC media player for Ubuntu Linux which does audio and video stream re-direction (inc. DVD!) straight out of the box (apt-get install VLC). I am looking at doing something similar for a bluetooth security system so feel free to PM me if your interested in collaboration. All the best, SIone

Hi Folks, Does anyone have any pointers on how to convert scripts for AutoIt into the Python based Dogtail script recorder for Ubuntu? Any help gratefully recieved, Thanks, SIone

I suggest you read each line into an array. If you use the search function of this forum you will find a lot of pointers. Hope this helps, SIone

Thanks for the the link- its a big help. I need DTMF for a remote security device which sends the DTMF tones over PMR, and with your help so far so good! Cheers, SIone

i suggest you download and install the beta (requires the alpha) and try again as other reasons for this not working may be nebulus

i do but since your having an issue with your program it will be easyier to help you if you can post your code

Are you using the beta version? do you run into this problem when using ANSI to complile your script? does your script run correctly when using scite?

I think your on the right track there- in one program i wrote i had to deal with a realtime issue while updating an output file. The best workaround was to use a timer interupted function to poll for the results from the realtime feed to avoid similar problems you describe.

Hello, I have an ongoing pet project with requires DTMF code recognition; a PMR radio is connected to a mic socket and needs to recognise a sequence of 8 tones. Does anyone know how this can be done either with AutoIt itself (have i missed something in the help files?), or of anyother way I can do this.
