V2.7 May 24, 2008 5:01:34 AM

Widget to search and display webcams all over the world.

This widget takes almost all of the functionality of the http://webcams.travel/ website and puts it in widget form. It has four main areas: Map, Tags, Details, and Favorites. You can search for webcams near a given location or by tag, and select one to view more information on the Details tab. You can also add it to your favorites, which allow you to view all of your favorite webcams on one screen.

*new in 2.5 - F12 toggles full map mode on and off.

v1.1 - Now remembers which tab you were looking at when you closed the widget. Also minor graphical update, code cleanup.
v1.2 - included all updated files in upload
v1.3 - fix some minor map issues.
v2.0 - integrated tags into widget.
v2.1 - added images to dynamically indicate if search results can be scrolled up or down.
v2.2 - css fixes, URLs 9.5 compatible, widget icon, check for latest version, hande no tag results.
v2.3 - bugfix
v2.5 - toggle map controls, full map view, handle other languages, other misc fixes.
v2.6 - map resumes from location when it was closed; mini mode; help has version number and link to download page.
v2.7 - some cosmetic and UI fixes, addressed most of the issues from HaJotKE below.

Ah, I understand. Unfortunately you can't see anything larger than that on webcam.travel's website either, you have to go to the source and see if they have a large image. I suppose you could blow that image up, but it'll look terrible with the low resolution.

ja002h, NO, I seem to have not understood...What I mean is to enlarge the window of a camera itself...It is rather difficult to discern anything in such a small window of a cam...

Venem, can't you basically do that manually by resizing the widget and then going to full map view?

many thanks!

This is cool but can you add the function of enlarging the picture to the size of full screen?

This is a great gajizmo for all you lonely road warriors and mobile types. Just bookmark your favorite webcam of say, San Francisco, or, Canton, Oh-hi-O....er...make that Canton, Georgia. Or, is it Canton, Kansas? Anyways...this free gajizmo is comforting, if not useful. You can just stare out in the bright NYC skyline courtesy of your favorite NYC webcam while you remind yourself that you have only twenty seven thousand lines of codes left to write and you can one day finally go back home to your SoHo loft and eat your month old pizza left over the day before you left. Enjoy!

I like this program

By comeprima , # Sep 4, 2008 11:48:31 AM

NO NO NO none of the cams are live its like 1998 all over again,with all the cams in the uk
updating onece every hour,and even all the ones around newyork,good idea but you could
have used the earthcam sites cams,http://webcams.travel/ sies cams just dont cut it,this
is 2008 and we want live streaming cams,not some JPEG updated every hour rubbish,I have
seen faster home cams on dial up than the ones on http://webcams.travel/ this company
needs to catch up,but having said that your widget is good its just the cams it links to that are
the problem.
