I can tell you this much, .cfm is ColdFusion. And CF is somewhat similar to PHP in it's embedded-in style of scripting.
It could be similar to how you can build a PDF. They could just take your HTML and then use that to build a .JPG. I'm sure it's a very *expensive* process (server & CPU -wise) though. -M -----Original Message----- From: Jake McHenry [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 09, 2004 1:11 PM To: 'Ryan A' Cc: 'Php-general' Subject: RE: [PHP] picturing webpage > -----Original Message----- > From: Ryan A [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, January 09, 2004 12:55 PM > To: David T-G > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [PHP] picturing webpage > > > Hey, > These sons of bitches at top--sites have done this, I call them that > coz I regularly get spam from them. > > Try this URL: http://top--sites.com/update.htm?d=spamcop.com&e=p > > change spamcop to any other url... > > Cheers, > -Ryan > > > > On 1/9/2004 4:28:33 PM, David T-G ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: > > Eli -- > > > > ...and then Eli Hen said... > > % > > % Hello All, > > > > Hi! > > > > > > % > > % I wanted to know if it is possible to picture a webpage > via PHP. % > > By "picturing" I mean that the program can generate a > picture, a view, > > out > > > > Hmmm...

They're using a script, pic.cfm on a windows box which somehow grabs a screenshot of the url. Any clues how this is done?
