barcode & web development

[hardigunawan]

I was thinking of creating a simple web applications which can get its data from a barcode scanner.

But I can't think of how to, since when a barcode is entered, there is no way to proceed to the next page unless the user presses submit button.

Is there any other way to automate such that I can scan a few barcodes and have all the data to be put into mysql database, without having to press any key or click any button?

Use javascript that will submit the form, when the onchange method is used.
