I'm creating a file manager application, from which I want the user to be able to edit/view files. On the text side of things, it's pretty easy, however from the image side of things, I'm not sure how to allow the user to view files outside of the web folder. Doing a "readfile ($file_location)" outputs the binary... can someone point me in the direction of being able to translate that binary into a viewable image file? Cheers Nunners img src="showimage.php?location=\path\to\image.gif"
showimage.php : readfile("location"); something like that -- Smileys rule (cX.x)C --o(^_^o) Dance for me! ^(^_^)o (o^_^)o o(^_^)^ o(^_^o)
