Thanks to all, especially Gabriel. The base64 is a good idea, but you state a definite problem. I will look at your code at home (offline)...thank you very much! It looks like the kicker is this line here:
<img src='getpic.py?id=%d' alt='%s'>" % (picid, cgi.escape(title)) Now, why didn´t you share that before????? I can see how calling a separate script like that would work! Again, you should have shared that before. How was I to think of that clever trick from the bare information you gave me earlier?? Steve, thank you for all your help, but do overcome your temper :)) Victor On Sun, Apr 13, 2008 at 7:05 AM, Steve Holden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Jason Scheirer wrote: > [...] > > > > There _is_ a way to embed image data in HTML that is supported by > > every major browser.
