save webcam snapshot in mysql using php

I'm working on a members database using PHP and MySql. I would like to
be able to take a snapshot with a webcam directly from the members
registration pages and save it the MySql database.

The foto is going to be printed on a members card, so I need to be
able to zoom inn and out before taking the foto.

Is this posible? Can anyone point me in the direcction of a tutorial
or something that explain this?

I have not jet bought the webcam. Is there any spesific webcams that
is better for this than other or anyone that I must not by?

PHP is not the tool for the job. You want something that runs client-side.
