Folks,

This is aimed at people who know the vagaries of the headless cgi mode
of old.

I am trying to set an image in a headless stack and then get its
imagedata. In other words, setting it to "http://blurf.com/myremote.jpg";

It does not appear to be working. Is this because the stack had no
access to http?

I think it's because CGIs do not load the graphical interface, so they don't
load or draw any images. I'm not sure there's a way around that, unless you
can read in the raw binary file and work with it that way.

I'm not sure about CGI mode, but I have had some experience (scars) with headless mode (as you can tell, I'm not sure if there's a difference). I think you can process images in headless mode - but you may have to do some trial and error to get past the various other hurdles of that mode.
