stockton Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Please tell me if it is possible to access client side peripherals, such as magstripe/smartcard readers, using JavaScript? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nogray Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 The magstripe/smartcard readere should operate as an input device (keyboard) if it's connect through usb (I think). Try to make a textarea and focus on it, than slid the card. Also, this might come in handy http://www.acmetech.com/blog/magnetic-track-data-parsers/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stockton Posted June 20, 2007 Author Share Posted June 20, 2007 Thank you. The trick, of course, is if the reader is not a keyboard wedge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
