Hi Guys,
 
I've been working on a remote control app to push xml to various phones on our network...
 
its working awesomely for 7970s..
 
im having some issues with 7960s and ip communicators...
 
the CGI/Screenshot returns different stuff as im sure you're aware...
 
the 60s return CIF file format which comes back in XML form looking like this...
 
<CiscoIPPhoneImage><LocationX>-1</LocationX><LocationY>-1</LocationY><Height>100</Height><Width>160</Width><Depth>2</Depth><Data>FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF and a load more Fs! and the closing XML bits..
 
how do i get this into a format i can chuck in a text box in VB.net?
 
I've tried for a while and now am trying to use the LoadCIPFromBuffer stuff in the Cisco SDK CIPImage Com objects but i'm having no luck with it.
 
the IP Communicators seem to return only the cisco error = 0 thing and nothing else... i dont know if they support the CGI/Screenshot method anyway? the previous version crashed when you sent that to it!
 
Please help! im really close to having something really useful for our engineers but 50% of our handsets are 60s so im a bit stuck!!!
 
Thanks!

Dan

Hi David
 
Thanks a lot for your response... the screenshot asp file is EXACTLY what i need...
 
unfortunately i cannot work out how to convert it from the file to vb...
 
i dont know if you know any vb or if any other helpful soul does...
 
i understand how this works as it is... but i'm having issues with getting the syntax right in VB
 
 var Inet1 = new ActiveXObject("CiscoURLProxy.URLGrabber");
 var cip = new ActiveXObject("CIPIMAGE.ImageProcessor.1");
 var rawdata = Inet1.GetURL("http://" + user + ":" + pass + "@" + phone + "/CGI/Screenshot", 0);
 cip.LoadCIPFromBuffer(rawdata);
 Response.ContentType = "image/gif";
 Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attached;filename=ScreenShot.gif;");
 Response.BinaryWrite(cip.SaveGIFToBuffer());
 }
