in a nutshell, i'm displaying a base64 encoded image (that is being
parsed from a remote xml file) in the browser doing a simple header
output:
<?php
header('Content-Length: '.$length);
header('Content-Type: image/gif');
echo base64_decode($image);
?>
it will print fine with Firefox but nothing in IE (just a box with an x
in the corner). didn't realize that IE wouldn't print these. am i stuck
with having to save the image to the server for IE to be able to print
it? i didn't really want to have to save these images out as they are
temporary.
