Ok, I understand what you're saying. So one more question and I'll get to coding..when you say the server just send it back as raw data wrapped with an http response header - is that raw data in string format..hmm, could of just answered my own question.
thanks for the wireshark idea, i just installed it. Steve ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The browser itself just requests a specific resource (an image file, in this case). The server just sends it back as raw data wrapped with an HTTP response header.
