Hello,

i was wondering if there a script out there,
that can do the following.

You sign your signature in a sqaure box when you submit the form it saves as a image.

I searched on google didn't came up with anything i could use.

you need a art pen that connects to the computer and almost no-body has them so its pointless.

on top of that atm no website coding language can really do what your asking (i think)

EDIT:
LOL forget that html5 canvas can do (i think) but i dont think it will save the image.

Here is a simple paint canvas done in javascript and HTML:
Web Speaks: Create Simple Paint Canvas using JavaScript
If this isn't exactly what you want, or you seek alternatives, try googling simple paint in javascript.

As for saving it from a javascript/html display to a server... that may be a bit tricky, as Javascript and HTML are client-side code, but a server (obviously) uses server-side code, like PHP.

There are almost always workarounds, though; especially when there are other scripts that do it ;).

After a few minutes of research...
Server-side Javascript library (I did not read much in to this at all, no idea if it will prove useful):
http://ejohn.org/blog/server-side-javascript-with-jaxer/

You could also try using CGI, ASP, or Flash instead of Javascript. The script you posted: http://www.pendo.nl/demos/handtekening/index.html is written in Shockwave, which is essentially Flash. (I don't want to get in to the gritty differences, heh...)

But, why not just buy the script you posted? It's just under 11Euros. You would probably be saving a lot more time, and thus money. (Do you want to spend 20 hours finding/building one, or one to two hours money's worth on a nicely built product?)

mm Strange but ok, I dont think this has been done enough to just be laying around on the web but guessing this is for a website, I think JavaScript would be the best way like timebomb said.
