Boo bloatware! Don't even mention those... heheh.. I even turn off most the services on my system to keep things clean.. But thats another story..
Going off your thoughts that I'm asking to do something outside the realm of the readers here, is there a better place to ask this kind of oddball stuff? I've looked around and haven't been able to find any support for XML-RPC (might be a good sign to drop it and move to something else?) I'm on the win32 list, and python-list, but I mostly just read those since in my mind most of what I have questions about are noobish things since I'm still trying to get a handle on this language...

Personally, I'd rather understand more of the "how I know it > works" One reason may be that you are doing something unusual. Like sending images directly from memory over an XMLRPC connection. It should be possible but its not likely something many perople on this list will have actually done. So you only get suggestions of how they *might* do it ifd they had to. Because of the reliability issues with XMLRPC I'd always save image data to a file and send the file. (As I said earlier I'd try to avoid sending the file via RPC but thats another story that we've covered') But the advantages of having a file mean that the whole process is much more repeatable and resilient particularly if the object you are trying to send is subject to change - like a screen shot. If you have to resend because of RPC errors then the new screen grab might be different to the original. The alternative involves holding the screen image in RAM for a longish time which makes your program into a resource hog which is also bad practice... although with PCs having hundreds of Meg of RAM nowadays its sadly becoming more common! Bloatware rules :-( But I suspect the main reason you aren't getting working examples is simply that you are trying to do something that is outside normal programming experience on this list. But I may be wrong! ;-) -- Alan Gauld Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.freenetpages.co.uk/hp/alan.gauld _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
