Re: How can I use a CGI script to return an image?

You people make everything so damn hard. I think hes basically looking for...

#!/usr/bin/perl
use CGI img;
print img{src =>"blah.gif", #or whatever the path is...
    height=>"400", #or whatever the height is..
    width=>"200", #or whatever the width is...
    border=>"0", #or whatever you want your border to be...
};

And if you want that neat litte page.pl?image2 thing going then go with what xjar said, that seems to be the best.

I disagree. Re-read his question. He's wanting to put a CGI script as the `<img src="...">`. Thus, his CGI script needs to output a valid binary image instead of the usual text/html.	[reply] [d/l]
