I am thinking of adding a live camera feed into my site that is built on GL.
Is this possible at this time? If not, how might that be done?

Thanks to all,

very simple. just add iframe code into either staticpage or block. Might need to add iframe to allowable html in config.php

I might have changed a config setting or something but on my site I can use any html in a block or static page no matter what the allowable html is.

Yes I am mental.

And I use a fairly simple method to put a webcam in a right-side block on my site, a cam that I actually grab from another site...but if it were a cam I ran, I could do the same thing, with the updated image uploaded to a statically-located JPG on my site.

I just figure out what the "http://www.whoever.com/whatever.jpg" URL is, then define a left- or right- block, and specify an IMG tag with a size that fits my right-side block. If I want a pop-up with a fullsize image, then great, I put it inside an "a href" tag with a targer= and re-specify the size. In this case I have a link under the image to the guy that lets me use his cam.

I don't know the procedure of how to set up a cam to "load" an image to a website-specific address, nor do I care because I'm using someone else's...the one I use is "updated" every hour via a cam-n-computer set up in a rural area, it opens a dial-up connection & uploads a new image once an hour.
