AndyB Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Let's think about the 'sandbox' security model for a moment. Do you think a program running on your server delivering code to my browser can control a peripheral connected to my computer? Can you imagine the chaos that would result if this were possible?

digitalgod Posted June 23, 2007 Author Share Posted June 23, 2007 well it's a private server that only employees would have access to but I see your point. There has to be something though....
