HTML and in-line images don't really work in a cross-browser compatible sort of way, and really mess with browser caching and page load times and are just such a Bad Idea that I didn't even consider that Ray might have meant "image inlined with HTML" I really (still) think Ray just meant: Cache and display the image in one operation without using a tempfile. Now that I think about it, you'd still want ob_start() if you want to cache and display the image inlined with HTML anyway, assuming you wanted to do something so foolish in the first place... -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
