Dimitar,
You could try something like the following, which requires two steps. The
first page uses a .cfm file as the source of an image, passing it the user's
'uid' value. The second page (the one that queries the LDAP server) uses
CFCONTENT and the query result to form the proper MIME type of 'image/jpeg'
that gets returned to Page1.cfm.
As a note, some jpegs use the image/pjpeg MIME type (photoshop).
Page1.cfm:
<img src="ldap.cfm?uid=#userid#">
Ldap.cfm:
<cfldap action="QUERY" name="Test" attributes="uid,
mail,guradiusprofile,jpegphoto" start="ou=Specials, o=University.EDU,c=US"
scope="SUBTREE" filter="(uid=#url.uid#)" server="ldap.university.edu">
<cfcontent type="image/jpeg">
#Test.jpegphoto#
