Javascript webcam capture and upload to server with PHP

i have one page with a success image upload form canvas using a javascript and PHP upload file. the second page has a successful webcam capture to canvas and displays correctly. i am trying to adapt the image upload script with the cam capture the live css object does nothing... the html is: snap 

    <div id="upContent">
    <div class="upload-wrapper">
      <span id="upCanvas">Upload This Canvas</span>
    </div>
    <div class="return-data"></div>
</div>  

    <script src="js/interactioncam.js"></script> 
    <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"></script>
    <script src="js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
    <!--script src="js/holder.js"></script-->

and the java script is: 

//interactioncam.js - grab a pic
(function() {

  var data;
  var dataURL;

  var streaming = false,
      video        = document.querySelector('#video'),
      cover        = document.querySelector('#cover'),
      canvas       = document.querySelector('#canvas'),
      photo        = document.querySelector('#photo'),
      startbutton  = document.querySelector('#startbutton'),
      width = 320,
      height = 240;

  navigator.getMedia = ( navigator.getUserMedia || 
                         navigator.webkitGetUserMedia ||
                         navigator.mozGetUserMedia ||
                         navigator.msGetUserMedia);

  navigator.getMedia(
    { 
      video: true, 
      audio: false 
    },
    function(stream) {
      if (navigator.mozGetUserMedia) { 
        video.mozSrcObject = stream;
      } else {
        var vendorURL = window.URL || window.webkitURL;
        video.src = vendorURL ? vendorURL.createObjectURL(stream) : stream;
      }
      video.play();
    },
    function(err) {
      console.log("An error occured! " + err);
    }
  );

  video.addEventListener('canplay', function(ev){
    if (!streaming) {
      height = video.videoHeight / (video.videoWidth/width);
      video.setAttribute('width', width);
      video.setAttribute('height', height);
      canvas.setAttribute('width', width);
      canvas.setAttribute('height', height);
      streaming = true;
    }
  }, false);

  function takepicture() {
    canvas.width = width;
    canvas.height = height;
    canvas.getContext('2d').drawImage(video, 0, 0, width, height);
    var data = canvas.toDataURL('image/png');
    var dataURL = canvas.toDataURL();
    photo.setAttribute('src', data);
  };

  startbutton.addEventListener('click', function(ev){
      takepicture();
    ev.preventDefault();
  }, false);

  // Convert DataURL to Blob object
  function dataURLtoBlob(dataURL) {
    // Decode the dataURL
    var dataURL = canvas.toDataURL();    
    var binary = atob(dataURL.split(',')[1]);
    // Create 8-bit unsigned array
    var array = [];
    for(var i = 0; i < binary.length; i++) {
        array.push(binary.charCodeAt(i));
    }
    // Return our Blob object
    return new Blob([new Uint8Array(array)], {type: 'image/png'});
  }

  // Send IT
  $("#upCanvas").live("click", function(){
    $("#upCanvas").html("<img src='img/load.gif' alt='load'>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Uploading ..");
    // Convert Canvas DataURL
    var dataURL= canvas.toDataURL();

    // Get Our File
    var file= dataURLtoBlob(dataURL);

    // Create new form data
    var fd = new FormData();

    // Append our image
    fd.append("imageNameHere", file);

    $.ajax({
       url: "uploadFile.php",
       type: "POST",
       data: fd,
       processData: false,
       contentType: false,
    }).done(function(respond){
      $("#upCanvas").html("Upload This Canvas");
        $(".return-data").html("Uploaded Canvas image link: <a href="+respond+">"+respond+"</a>").hide().fadeIn("fast");
    });
  });

})();

the php upload is:

<?php
$allowedExts = array("gif", "jpeg", "jpg", "png");
$temp = explode(".", $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
$extension = end($temp);
if ((($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/gif")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpeg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/pjpeg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/x-png")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/png"))
&& ($_FILES["file"]["size"] < 20000)
&& in_array($extension, $allowedExts))
  {
  if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0)
    {
    echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br>";
    }
  else
    {
    echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file"]["name"] . "<br>";
    echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file"]["type"] . "<br>";
    echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["file"]["size"] / 1024) . " kB<br>";
    echo "Temp file: " . $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] . "<br>";

    if (file_exists("upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]))
  {
      echo $_FILES["file"]["name"] . " already exists. ";
      }
    else
      {
      move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],
      "upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
      echo "Stored in: " . "upimg/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"];
      }
    }
  }
else
  {
  echo "Invalid file";
  }
?>

any suggestions as to why i cannot get the canvas converted to a file and the upload script to work?

You need to post the captured image to php, for that you can use jquery .ajax(), here's a complete example:

upload.php

<?php
$img = !empty($_REQUEST['imgBase64']) ? $_REQUEST['imgBase64'] : die("No image was posted");
$imgName = $_REQUEST['imgName'];
$img = str_replace('data:image/png;base64,', '', $img);
$img = str_replace(' ', '+', $img);
$fileData = base64_decode($img);
//saving
file_put_contents($imgName, $fileData);

Now the js/jquery, css and html:

(function() {
    // The width and height of the captured photo. We will set the
    // width to the value defined here, but the height will be
    // calculated based on the aspect ratio of the input stream.

    var width = 320; // We will scale the photo width to this
    var height = 0; // This will be computed based on the input stream

    // |streaming| indicates whether or not we're currently streaming
    // video from the camera. Obviously, we start at false.

    var streaming = false;

    // The various HTML elements we need to configure or control. These
    // will be set by the startup() function.

    var video = null;
    var canvas = null;
    var photo = null;
    var startbutton = null;

    function startup() {
        video = document.getElementById('video');
        canvas = document.getElementById('canvas');
        photo = document.getElementById('photo');
        startbutton = document.getElementById('startbutton');

        navigator.getMedia = (navigator.getUserMedia ||
            navigator.webkitGetUserMedia ||
            navigator.mozGetUserMedia ||
            navigator.msGetUserMedia);

        navigator.getMedia({
                video: true,
                audio: false
            },
            function(stream) {
                if (navigator.mozGetUserMedia) {
                    video.mozSrcObject = stream;
                } else {
                    var vendorURL = window.URL || window.webkitURL;
                    video.src = vendorURL.createObjectURL(stream);
                }
                video.play();
            },
            function(err) {
                console.log("An error occured! " + err);
            }
        );

        video.addEventListener('canplay', function(ev) {
            if (!streaming) {
                height = video.videoHeight / (video.videoWidth / width);

                // Firefox currently has a bug where the height can't be read from
                // the video, so we will make assumptions if this happens.

                if (isNaN(height)) {
                    height = width / (4 / 3);
                }

                video.setAttribute('width', width);
                video.setAttribute('height', height);
                canvas.setAttribute('width', width);
                canvas.setAttribute('height', height);
                streaming = true;
            }
        }, false);

        startbutton.addEventListener('click', function(ev) {
            takepicture();
            ev.preventDefault();
        }, false);

        clearphoto();
    }

    // Fill the photo with an indication that none has been
    // captured.

    function clearphoto() {
        var context = canvas.getContext('2d');
        context.fillStyle = "#AAA";
        context.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);

        var data = canvas.toDataURL('image/png');
        photo.setAttribute('src', data);
    }

    // Capture a photo by fetching the current contents of the video
    // and drawing it into a canvas, then converting that to a PNG
    // format data URL. By drawing it on an offscreen canvas and then
    // drawing that to the screen, we can change its size and/or apply
    // other changes before drawing it.

    function takepicture() {
        var context = canvas.getContext('2d');
        if (width && height) {
            canvas.width = width;
            canvas.height = height;
            context.drawImage(video, 0, 0, width, height);

            var data = canvas.toDataURL('image/png');
            photo.setAttribute('src', data);

            $.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                url: "upload.php",
                data: {
                    imgBase64: data,
                    imgName: "webcam.png"
                }
            }).done(function(o) {
                console.log('saved');
            });
        } else {
            clearphoto();
        }
    }

    // Set up our event listener to run the startup process
    // once loading is complete.
    window.addEventListener('load', startup, false);
})();

The FILES Upload name is imageNameHere not file. To access the data you should replace imageNameHere with file or change the php code. Otherwise the dataUrl on uploading may not in base64?
