Since when has .wbmp meant an image is a windows bitmap, it stands for Wireless Bitmap the only image format supported on WAP phones, which is currently is the only real thing that has GPRS capability, so I dont know where you got Windows Bitmap from, also .wbmp is not a proprietary format by any means it is part of the wap standards, I said all of this because your method assumes that the receiving client (in this case a WAP phone) definately supports the image format you are sending it, and if you are sending .png, .gif, or .jpg a WAP phone would be unable to support it, this is YAP (yet another problem) with your system. _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.jabber.org/listinfo/jdev
