I woulld like to try out motion detection using a webcam in PHP. Would it be possible to do it in Windows? I have already done a google search but the script available is for Unix

???

1) PHP is universal for all major OSs
2) Using PHP as a server language CANNOT process dynamic data! And if you don't want to use it as a server language, go for C++, Fortran or any BASIC-dialect.
3) if you really intend to do in in a browser, than have a look at the ActionScript API.
