Hey Ken,

Not entirely sure what you want from Webform Builder. Are you asking if you can get a webform to have an option to upload a picture.

If so then the answer is yes you can add an upload element to it. You will be limited by size.

Trigger the webcam. Take the picture and then send it along with information to a mySql database and then print out a badge. Guessing that this will be a custom HTML element with custom loaded javascript.

Hi Ken,
Would you post what you did so others that may have the same need can implement you code.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

I'm saving a photo to a directory, creating a thumbnail, and then saving the url of both to my database but I used a custom myformname.php to do mine.

I take the picture with the webcam, store it in a mysql database, then use it to print out a badge on a label printer (through the windows printer interface) - done by manually adding in an html element and javascript for the webcam
