You mean a live webcam, or just load a picture every time the page is refreshed. Either way it involves some server Side scripting ... although ... you could have the webcam put a picture at a specific place (always same name) and then use javascript to refresh page every so often. As for live stuff, you need some sort of plugin for that, a JavaApplet maybe, or maybe a RealMedia or QuickTime thingy

Is the refresh way easier? I have the code for that, but I just need the code to make the webcam visible.... I'm thinking that I'd probably do the refresh way, it would probably make the page load faster and everything... Do you know the code for it? THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THAT HELP!!!

Ok, say you named the document webcam.html

<html>
  <head>
    <title>
      Webcam
    </title>
    <meta http-equiv='refresh' content='15; url=webcam.html'>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div align='center'>
      <img src='location of picture made by webcam'>
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

this code should refresh the page every 15 seconds (value is adjusted with content)
All you have to do now is have the webcam take and store a picture every few seconds (in this case 15)

This is the easiest way I can think of, although if you want a real live webcam experience, you need some sort of streaming technology
