Jim's technique is crutch of it, but instead of actually putting an <img /> tag in your code, you can use something like: var oImgGateway = new Image(); oImgGateway.src = "someurl.cfm?passParam=here"; This will create an async event that will load the URL in the src property to the server. The caveat with this approach is that you have no way to really interact with the server--basically you can only use it to pass information to the server, you won't be able to retrieve information from the server using that technique. -Dan ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:231031 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
