This page demonstrates the use of TwainControlX with Javascript. When this page loaded, the trial version of TwainControlX was downloaded to the client machine on which this page is being viewed. Clicking the button will now run a Javascript function which calls TwainControlX commands to select a TWAIN device on the local machine, acquire an image from that device, and save the image to disk.



If this page is not working correctly for you, note that the two most common reasons for this are:

1. You are using a browser that does not support the use of ActiveX controls, e.g., FireFox.

2. The browser security settings are blocking the download and installation of the control. Unlike the full version of TwainControlX which is a digitally signed control, this trial version is unsigned and will be blocked by the default security settings of Internet Explorer.
