But after much messing around there does not appear to be a way in WebDNA to decode a Base64 image and either write it to disk or serve it out. So I guess this approach (i.e including the image directly in the WebDNA code) is not going to work. Just to clarify, I am trying to improve our web bug (i.e. tracking pixel) code - so I can add something like: to an email, add stuff to a log file when the image is accessed, and then serve back a 1x1 px blank image. I'm trying to avoid a situation where the 1x1 blank image is not available on the local site. I'll try a different approach to check for the existence locally of the blank image and then use [tcpconnect] to pull the image down off a remote site and write locally if it doesn't exist.
