You will need a web browser and a screen-grabber application. They will both
have to be scriptable so you can call them from your PHP script.

But how you do this really depends on what sort of operating system your
server is running. Try asking in a Windows/Unix/BSD/whatever newsgroup.

On a windows platform (not free - demo versions with warnings ont the
images):

http://www.html2jpg.com/download.htm (blackbox version)

On a Linux Platform with a graphical environment and a browser (free, see
licence) :
http://marginalhacks.com/Hacks/html2jpg/

I tried all of these and included them in an interface to manage links in
our intranet (php, mysql).
They can get a screenshot of the visible portion of the page (you set the
sizes) or get a screenshot of the whole document (which can be many
screens).

I would like to capture a picture of the active window on the screen to use in an error routine. Like the following, which captures the entire desktop: Dim objRectangle As Rectangle = Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds Dim objBitmap As New Bitmap(objRectangle.Right, objRectangle.Bottom) How can I isolate down to just the active window? Thanks,

I want to be able to capture a screenshot of a windows form that is hidden. My goal here is to create a form of any particular size (the size could be larger than the screen), get a screenshot, and save it to a image file. I know how to capture a screenshot of a form but unfortunately if part of the form is "off" the screen, then the area that is not on the screen is "black" in the file. Hope this makes sense.

Hello, I need some help please. I already know how to capture the full screen, because the .NET framework simplifies it a lot. Anyway, I was wondering, is it possible to capture a Window / Application? For Example, I want it to work like this: 1. User selects 'WINDOW Screenshot' Mode. 2. They select Capture Screenshot. 3. They have to then click the window they want to capture.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
