RE: [PHP] Streaming a jpg

Say your image is called 12345.jpg... showimage.php: <?php if(is_file("/your_www_dir/images/$imageid.jpg")) header("Location: /images/$imageid.jpg"); else header("Location: /images/notfound.jpg"); ?> notfound.jpg can be a "Image Not Found" graphic or something similar. In your HTML, just call that script... <IMG SRC="showimage.php?imageid=12345"> -----Original Message----- From: Todd Cary [mailto:todd@aristesoftware.com] Sent: Sunday, August 12, 2001 11:04 AM To: Don Read Cc: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP] Streaming a jpg Don - What I am trying to do is avoid having the location of the JPEG available to the surfer. An idea I have is to pass a parameter to the image. For example: showimage.php?imageid=12345 My PHP script will get the location of the image and "read" it into memory. Then my HTML page will "somehow" use the image in memory rather than the usual <IMG...> tag. This currently works: <IMG alt="" border=0 src="http://209.204.172.137/CANADA_RIDE_2001/Flag.jpg"> Is there a way to replace the SRC property with a memory image?
