texte = I am attempting to serve an image in place of a tpl file, but am not having any success. I have set the Content-Type mime header to image/gif, and am including the file through an [include] tag with "&raw=T" set. However, only about the first 7 bytes are served. Thinking that perhaps WebDNA just cannot serve a .gif file, I tried using a shell script to pull the file using "cat". However, instead of the file expected, I am getting the contents of a WebStar XML preferences file from elsewhere on the server (the paths to the two files couldn't be more different). However, when using this command, the Content-Length is exact at 1025 bytes. But the file served is wrong. Is there any way I can achieve my goal? I am attempting to track an image loaded through other sources. I am attempting to take a request for a specific image file (in this case "view.gif"), and use WebStar's modify rules to serve view.tpl in its place. Once all code is rendered on view.tpl, I wanted to include the view.gif file, so that what was requested is what was served. But, I cannot seem to get WebDNA to serve the image file. Any suggestions or assistance would be appreciated.
