I have been trying to set up my server with some kinda software that can help me to give it a command from command line through my php page and it can take a screenshot.
for this i tried firefox pluging pagesaver but this is just not working
i tried this command
firefox -savepng [google.com...]
it saves the image but blank without anything just blank image.
I also tried to use webthumb but that also that doesn't seem to work.
I wonder if someone could guide me to make some system to use my php page with dedicated server to generate screenshot of webpages.
I will be really really thankful, I have been messing my head with this for the last 48 hours but no success
I have centos 4.4 , XVFB installed.
I have already read the other similar threads on this forum but they are not very helpful or in other words not working for me.. What I want to know is any such software or extension that I can install on my server and then from php shell_exec() i can pass it a command with the URL and it can generate a screenshot of that URL and save on my server.
thanks
Try a search at phpclasses.org to see if anything else comes up. I am not sure what is wrong with your syntax that is making it not work. Maybe you want to check the documentation on the executable that you are using to see if you are missing something.
Good luck!
