Well thinking about it MORE, I really *do* need to write the images right out to the browser.
The sheer number of combinations of the data preclude pre-writing out the images to the file system - it would be a huge number of files. But I figured out my background issue. I'm just using a pair of divs, overlaid using z-index. One div, I toss the <cfimage> tag into - the other div (with a higher z-index), I do my other info overlay. Works like a champ. :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;203748912;27390454;j Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:307716 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
