Assuming you "own" the web server that the images are being served from, AND that all of the images are in the same directory (or in the same directory branch area), why not just establish a new "higher" virtual directory in the web server
For example, if you currently serve images from a windows machine with base directory of c:\inetpub and your url now looks something horrible like http://mysite.com/base/application/xyzOrWhatever/userdata/inventory/bigimages/catalog/jpegs You could setup a new virtual directory of http://mysite.com/i (for example) that pointed to c:\inetpub\base\application\xyzOrWhatever\userdata\inventory\bigimages\catalog\jpegs to reduce the URL length by eliminating the higher level "constant clutter" Ross Ferris Stamina Software Visage > Better by Design! -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of John Fenlon Sent: Friday, 9 September 2011 9:29 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: jbase5211 : opening a browser from jbase Ken, You could use something like tinyURL to shorten the existing ones.

Connection to jbase via Putty. We currently open browsers (to jpg links) using hyperlinks in putty, but limited to 80 char urls. Is there a jbase function that will read a url from a jbase file and open the link on the remote users session? Any suggestions would be welcomed.
