What do I do if I have a dynamic IP address?

Normally, you would need to copy and paste the new IP address each time you connect to the Webcam after the IP changes. A quick solution for this without having to recreate your page each time would be to use a Dynamic DNS server. This is a separate company that holds your domain and changes the DNS to match your new IP on the system. You can find many available online at http://www.google.com/search?q=dynamic+dns&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a.

Essentially, a small application runs on your machine that communicates to the Dynamic DNS server and updates it with the new IP each time. The DNS server then updates its IP to match that for your system, allowing you to keep the same code within your HTML.
