You need to generate the image on a separate request. Inside your template, there should be an <img> tag with a src parameter referencing your servlet For example: <IMG SRC="http://www.server.com/webapp/servlet?mode=image";>
The servlet should then return an image as a binary stream if it sees the "mode=image" parameter. There is no way to output both HTML and an image to the browser on the same request, as HTML doesn't provide a mechanism to "embed" images in the document, only to reference them. -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Owens [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 16, 2003 1:26 PM To: Velocity Users List Subject: Multipart template Does Velocity provide some way of utilizing a multipart content-type template? In other words: I have a servlet generating data for a Velocity template. Along with text such as name and address, I want a picture to be embedded within the web page. HOWEVER, the picture is coming as binary data - NOT a <img> link or anything like that. Limitations: 1. The picture is not stored as a file, it will come from the servlet as binary data. 2. The picture must be embedded within a velocity template somehow. 3. The template I need the picture to go in is already a very nice Velocity template - I'm not interested in generating the page html myself or switching to some other templating system. (I would generate just the portion of the html for the picture - if I can embed it in the template somehow) Thanks for your help, Jeff Owens --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
