texte = I posted a message earlier about problems with http upload. After some help from Bob Minor, we determined that the problem was this . . .IF you use [fileinfo ....path] to get the [imagewidth] or the [imageheight] for a file, and the file you are getting this information for is named xxxx.gif, BUT it is really is a jpeg file (or vise-versa) some hooey things can happen to the information that is returned within the [fileinfo] tags.So, if webCatalog 4.0 can extract width and height information from the binary data of jpeg and gif files, it should be very easy to also tell if the image is compressed using jpeg or gif compression. Thus a [filetype] tag would be very useful. Is there anyway that anyone can think of or knows of to use WebDNA look at a file and tell what type it REALLY is without looking at the extension on the filename? Thanks!
