Hi,

How do you know which users are involved in a conference call?
On my web page I can tell if I initiate the call but how will I find out
this information for the receiver?
(I am storing my user details in a MS Access)

Also, how could you tell who initiated the call?
I was thinking of using the onClick of my make call button but it is already
used to make the call - its there any other way?

Thanks
Suzanne

I don't think there is any way from a script to do this,

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/EN-US/netmeet/nm3s_67hl.asp?frame=true
has info on the scripting interface.

I am not sure what you mean -- you can know that the user using the web
interface initiated the call from the web interface and not much else.

I am not sure what you mean here -- the onClick function can do anything you
want i(that is possible from client side javascript) in addition to
initiating the call. What do you want it to do.

I was going to set a flag when the user intitiates a call - ie. when the
press the call button.
Then check is the flag is set to tell if they initiated the call or not.
But I wasn't sure as I was already using the onClick of the call button as
it already has the value
onClick=NetMeeting.CallTo(CallToAddress.value)

Hope this makes more sense!

Well you probably should create a JS function to perform your actions and
make the call ( at least that is what I would do).

Depending on the browser you could probably do a hidden post to your
webserver to log the call details - javascript is not 'exclusive' in
that when you run one function you may also run many functions
sequentially ! So you would do

<a href="callto:ipaddress" onclick="makehiddenpost(); return
true">Call</a>

And the hidden post function might post a form within an iframe (IE) ,
or it might use xmlhttp (IE or Mozilla) to post the data, neither of
which require a page request to refresh the page, and they can be
achieved asynchronously to the call (ie, the functions are
non-blocking).

Returning true (not a string of "true" but the javascript binary value
true ) allows the next handler in this case "callto:" attached to the
href, to proceed.

Finally set up a receiver say an asp page which logs the call
initiation to the database (although Access will fall over with more
than 10 simultaneous requests btw - use MySQL ;-)

You might want to do all this by setting hidden form variables using
javascript, then use an embedded netmeeting object (which you can
script) test the 'isInConference' property after a timeout - if it's
true then the user is in a call, you know their IP address and the
callee's IP address so you can log those as well as the call start
time, knowing that the call connected.

HTH
