What are you asking exactly? Do you want to control device from php? Your best route would probably be to use a desktop application take gets the barcode reader data, then connects to a db to retrieve or store necessary information. Then on the web site of the inventory system any data you would need will be in the db.

I see. By the way, anyone knows a desktop application to use in getting information using a barcode reader?

I am using Php and MySQL for my inventory system.

Thanks.

This is certainly not the best place to ask about desk top applications but I would probably start with something like this

I can also recommend this Barcode Reader SDK.

yes this is very helpful it worked for me

hi if it is a reader connected to the keyboard port(PS/2) then
without any drivers, you can use it directly, just place the curson on the text box of the web page and read the code using barcode reader, at last it will sent Enter(13) key also...
