Hi Gurus,
Within the PHP application running on a mobile browser, is it possible to use the phone camera to scan the barcode located on the machine and save it within my database?
Thanks.

Saving it as a picture - yes. Scanning it and saving as a number - this requires a separate phone app and I don't know how you can pass this value back to your phone's web browser.

Hi Admin,
Currently, we scan the bar code with the iPhone by using a barcode app downloaded free from the AppStore.
Also come across something at https://serratus.github.io/quaggaJS/ , but seems that Safari does not allow such access...
My customer is asking the app to incorporate such features.
Thanks.

I guess your only choice for now is to build a native app that has access to the camera.
