Something like this:
<action name="personImage"
class="com.secmgmt.struts2.actions.getpic.StreamImageAction">
<result name="success" type="stream">
<param name="contentType">image/jpeg</param>
<param name="inputName">inputStream</param>
<param
name="contentDisposition">filename="image.jpg"</param>
<param name="bufferSize">1024</param>
</result>
</action>
And you do your HREF like this:
<img width="200" src="<s:url action='personImage'><s:param name='id'
value='person.id'/></s:url>" alt="No Image Found"/>
Just have your SteamImageAction increment some sort of counter, or record
the request, and have a getInputStream() method that returns an open input
stream with the image file on the other end...

Hi Hassan
I would never have thought to create a servlet that returns the image. This
is a great idea.
Thanks
