What I'm working on is a cgi script that is on a computer that has access to two subnets. The desired result is when the script is accessed from one side, it requests an image off of a remote device on one subnet and then displays it to the user who is on the other subnet. Right now, I'm having an issue with getting the output of the image to the users page. Here is a sample snippet if the output:
... kVRFMNI"*#VZHF$2TPWPRj{#8HRW Xj  L !.x + 2)C‹4Ts c"ىYv9+V 0VOi8>Z@)ki›nH& + ...
Below is the code.
#!/usr/bin/perl use CGI; use LWP; use LWP::Simple; use LWP::UserAgent; $ua = new LWP::UserAgent; $q = new CGI; $url = "http://10.50.1.1/pics/topbanner1.gif"; $req= HTTP::Request->new(GET => $url); $page = $ua->request($req); if ($page->is_success) { $pic=$page->content; print $q->header, $q->start_html('hello world'), $q->h1("<img src='$pic'>"), $q->end_html; } else { print $q->header, $q->start_html($page->error_as_HTML), $q->h1($error), $q->end_html; }
The question is does anyone know how to get the image to be relayed without having to be stored locally? I'm intentionally not using any scrict at the moment so that debugging is easier.
