Hi, I'm in the same boat. I have a Firefox extension that allows a user to right-click on an image and send the image to an external application (paint, etc). Thing is, I can't figure out how to extract the image out of the cache. Ideally, I want the extension to just send the original URL and have my win32 app extract the image from the cache itself. Barring that, if I could somehow extract the image myself (in firefox) and pass the local path to the win32 app, it would work nicely too. I hope I explained this clearly. Any ideas? Thanks, Mike. _______________________________________________ Mozilla-netlib mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/mozilla-netlib
