Irv, That was the first thing I tried. Because STDOUT is opened as ascii "w" as opposed to "wb" it doesn't send the data correctly. Ho-hum...I guess I'll just have to do things the way I am (or write a small .so/dll to write binary (is anyone using a function called "write" may as well use the 'c' function name.:-p)) later, Allen You can send an image to a browser, via STDOUT, if it has the proper mime content headers to identify itself to the browser. Without looking it up, I think it goes something like: puts(1,"Content-type: image/gif\n\n") -- must have two linefeeds. change the gif to jpeg, if appropriate.
