Last week I tried a couple of ways of doing this under EmbperlObject.
That is, from somepage.html try to ignore the output of base.html and
set the headers and content manually, while still having access to
things bound to the request object $req.
Is that even possible? I ended up configuring a /cgi-bin and creating a
CGI.pm script to dump out my binary data.
init.html:
[- $req = shift; $req->{dbh} = DBI ...; -]
base.html:
<html>
[- Execute ('*') -]
</html>
somepage.html:
[-
$req = shift;
$dbh = $req->{dbh};
$http_headers_out{'Content-Type'} = "image/gif";
print OUT $dbh->selectrow_array("select imageblob from images where
id=234");
-]
