Hi Ben
It's a bit late, but I just wanted to say thanks, I just (long story
why) implemented that and it all seems good. Just about to test it with
Browsercam.
Which brings up an issue. I perceive Browsercam as being less and less
reliable (right now I have: Server Error in '/' Application.
Object reference not set to an instance of an object. Description: An
unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web
request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the
error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details:
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance
of an object).
Do others perceive that too and is there an alternative?
Cheers
