You'll have to clarify a little more. Using standard HTML and
HTTP, it doesn't really make any sense to say "pass the image
along with the HTML", ref Kevin Mukhar's response in this thread.
If what Kevin's saying isn't clear, then I'd highly recommend
setting aside a day or so to read up on HTTP. It's impossible to
explain some of this stuff without assuming you have a certain
level of low-level knowledge about the protocols involved.
It sounds like what you really want to do is (a). Why do you want
the servlet to touch the image file at all unless you are going to
modify the image (or the generated html) in some way?
Normally I would be all "RTFA" (read the informative archives),
at this point, but the search link seems to be down again...
