trq Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 PHP runs on the server, no hope of it taking a screenshot. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/105863-php-auto-screenshot/#findComment-542575 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerRobot Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Not entirely true - with PHP 5.2.2 and a windows environment, you could use the imagegrabscreen or imagegrabwindow functions. Never used them myself, so im unsure of the limitations - but it's worth a look.

GingerRobot Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 They take screenshots of the server. Indeed. But you can use the imagegrabwindow function to take a screenshot of what's in IE, for example. So it should be possible take a screenshot of the particular page the user is browsing.
