Julien: you and me have "at the end" the same problem. Java Web applets are passing away and we are looking for alternatives.
If you are just talking about "scanning", there 3 options AFAIK to do that: - From web invoke 127.0.0.1:port application(service) which listens on port X and do all the job with the twain scanner - From the Web invoke myscan:// application protocol (look for registering protocols on system at Google) and although you'll get a warning dialog, the application could twain-scan and send result to a server - Forget about twain. The trust-chain of scanning is broken, but you can scan over network and the upload JPG to your webform :P If you are somehow worried about security (ie: "certified scanning") then we are both "on the same problem". Developing your own twain driver for network scanners will be -probably- much more expensive that using xane or buying a USB new one. You still have the scanner-web issue, but that can be solved easily (using option #1+random number/token) -- dev-tech-crypto mailing list dev-tech-crypto@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto
