Well, I don't know of any official command documentation from foscam, but you might find some on google. This is one of them: http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/Foscam[^]. A more detailed (and as I know most recent), but less comprehensive is this one: http://www.sistemasorp.es/blog/IPCAMCGISDKV2.1.pdf[^].
You simply have to issue http GET commands to the camera. If you don't want page reload, use ajax for that. If you encounter command compatibility issues, you can easily reverse engineer by using IE9 developer toolbar network profiler or a sniffer tool like Fiddler.

yes, on this site are good information, but i still don't know how I can embed to my page ?

You can not "embed" the commands. You have to make your own buttons or images, and issue the ajax calls to the camera on click event wit the desired command.

Any progress?

I understand what do you mean, but me experience with programing aren't very good and I don't know alone how do it ...

Well, than why do you want to do it at the first place?
For the start, look at the source code of the page, the embedded web serve is showing you (the page, who's screenshot you posted). In IE and Chrome you will find tool to trace network traffic and javascript code execution.
I can't do for you, because I have no such camera (yet), thus it is impossible for me to test. But you decided to do this, you have to do it.
Here is how you can make ajax GET calls: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.get/

BTW: accepting your own so-called answer, seems to me a little bit displeasing in this context...

Sorry. This is not the forum for doing jobs for somebody else. If you can't solve such a simple task based on the guidance I have already given, I can't see how you will be able to solve more complicated tasks in your project. Please try to do it on your own. Feel free to ask technical questions if you stuck - this is how we can help. But don't ask us to do it for you, because we won't.

And be so kind, and undo accepting your own comment, since until it is set as accepted answer I won't write a character more...
