Chris,
(b) is the scenario I am looking for. I want to take a .gif file
located on the server and pass the image along with HTML back to the
browser. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Do you want to:
a) Merely display an image in an html page generated by a
servlet?
b) Take an image from the disk, read it into the servlet,
and have the servlet send the image as a response to
a request from a client?
c) Have the servlet actually generate the image on-the-fly
in-memory, and send that to the client in a response?
(eg, have the servlet generate a custom graph in response
to a user query)
The answer depends...
