Hi, I have some images in a database -- I mean, the actual data. There are no files. I want to read Exif data for these images, but the read_exif_data() function wants a file. I suppose I could write the images to temp files, but that's a bit wasteful. And where would I write them? Is there a folder I can count on being allowed to write to? Thanks, Niels
