You cant really check such things in html pages, if you are certain that this would be run on IE use custom ActiveX controls to do such things.

Jquery plugin API Check this link-

And if you want to use other browsers, investigate Java or Flash.

der is not an english word. PHP runs on the server and can perhaps check on the server end. HTML, which PHP generates, cannot interact with a webcam.
