Ken,
That's exactly what I want and it works beautifully! I wish I had asked this question a long time ago since, in the past, I have been creating the files and wind up with a bunch of image files hanging around. When building this new site I thought there must be a better way!
Thanks!
Floyd

Is it possible to generate the image and send the data back and make the browser think it's loading an image file? I know this can be done by sending the proper headers back for an entire page, but I just want to do basically the same thing for just part of the page.
