Images in Excel with CFContent

I'm trying to insert some gifs into an excel spreadheet created with cfcontent. The essence of the code is this...
<cfcontent type="application/msexcel">
<cfheader name="Content-Disposition" value="attachment; filename=myexcelfile.xls">
<table>
<tr>
     <td>
     <img src="https://www.mydomain.com/images/mypic.gif">
     </td>
</tr>
</table>
...so when the spreadsheet comes up, it shows the images, but they aren't saved in the spreadsheet itself - they're just linking to the image file online. So if I unplug my network cable, the images will disappear, despite the xls file being saved on my local machine.
Does anyone know how to embed the image files themselves into an excel file created through ColdFusion?

You might try creating a spreadsheet containing an image using the Microsoft Excel program then save it as HTML. Examining the HTML Excel generates may give you an idea how to structure your HTML to conform to Excel's format.

Inserting an Image in Excel with POI HSSF

Has anyone been successful creating an Excel document with an
embedded image using POI HSSF?
Create a nicely formatted Excel is no, problem - but I can't
seem to figure the image part out. I am not calling the loadPicture
correctly, which is confusing CF.
<cfset patriarch = newSheet.createDrawingPatriarch()/>
<cfset patriarch.createPicture(createObject("java",
"org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.HSSFClientAnchor").init(),
loadPicture("asset/images/logo_e2eA.png",
workSheet))/>

You did not mention which version of POI. Did you verify your
version supports the patriarch.createPicture method? If you are
using a really old version it might not.
> loadPicture("asset/images/logo_e2eA.png",
workSheet))/>
Does the code actually have access to a loadPicture() method
or function? I think loadPicture() is a private method in one of
the example classes: org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.examples.*. So
you may have to write your own version of it. Assuming you have not
done so already...

Send image to browser with cfcontent not download prompt

I'm sending an image to be downloaded using cfcontent
<cfheader name="Content-disposition" value="attachment;filename=#getit.file#">
<cfcontent type="image/jpg" file="#physicalpath#\#getit.file#">
Can I have the image sent to the browser instead of a download prompt?

If the image isn't accessible directly via HTTP, you can use CF to serve it. Your CF page would have the CFCONTENT tag as you showed in your original post, then you'd use IMG tags in other pages pointing to that CF page:
<img src="myimage.cfm?id=whatever"/>
You wouldn't need the CFHEADER to specify it as an attachment, though - that's only for when you want to prompt the user to download a file without having it handled natively by the browser.

Problem with images in XML with excel output

Hello:
I made an XML concurrent program, with excel output, but i am having a problem:
The rtf template has a logo (bmp image), but it is not showing in the excel (if i execute the concurrent in the oracle applications). However, if i create the xml in Oracle Reports in my computer, and then load that xml in the rdf template in word, i can see the logo in the excel preview. I don't know why is it not showing when i execute the program in applications.
If someone can help me with this, i will be very grateful.
Greetings

xml cP, will not give you a image in excel output,..
In RDF there is a placeholder for image, and the image is located in certain location, at runtime it picks and render the output with logo.
but xml CP, will get the data in xml type and merge with rtf to get the output you wanted..
if you have the rtf with logo embedded in it, if output is of pdf or rtf output , then it will display the logo ,.
in excel currently it is not possible to show the logo,..
excel you see could be xml-excel or csv-excel not the true binary excel.
to get the logo embedded ,for that you have to wait on tim for the excel template, which will be release in near future i guess..

Drawing an image in excel sheet using HSSF API

Hi All,
Can any one please help me.
I am facing an issue with excel sheet while drawing image using HSSF API.
I am doing autofit for all the cells i have added. But the image is stretching along with the expanded cells.
I want the autofit option to work but the image should not stretch. Image should be the same size as is but the cells must expand.
Thanks in advance

Hi Santosh
You can export the report to PDF
Else you can manually copy the logo\image to excel sheet.
Hope it will help.

Does HSSF support Excel with Picture?

The following code works fine if the Excel File "test.xls" does not contain picture.
It also runs without error after I have added a picture to the Excel sheet, but when I open the excel file "test.xls", I got an error message "Unable to read file".
Does HSSF support Excel with Picture?
POIFSFileSystem fs = new POIFSFileSystem(new FileInputStream("test.xls"));
HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook(fs);
HSSFSheet sheet = wb.getSheetAt(0);
int r = 10;
short c = 10;
HSSFRow row = sheet.getRow(r);
if (row != null)
if (row.getCell(c) != null)
row.getCell(c).setCellValue("testing");
else
row.createCell(c).setCellValue("testing");
FileOutputStream fileOut = new FileOutputStream("test.xls");
wb.write(fileOut);
fileOut.close();

If it must be dynamically embeded, you're SOL AFAIK. You can embed images in a template, then open that template and add data. POI will allow images and pivot tables to be in the original document and it will save them undamaged, however you cannot create images or pivot tables from within POI (HSSF).

How do I make 3GS email display images, PDFs, Excel, etc?

We have two identical iPhone 3GS and when an email from Outlook is sent to both, one will display images, PDFs, Excel, etc. while the other will not. Both have been updated to the latest software iOS 5.1.1 and Load Remote Images ON. iOS 5.1.1 has been reinstalled on non-performing phone with no improvement. How do I fix this?

Thanks SBerman for the explanation which works on a gmail, yahoo and one of two AOL accounts. In sending the same test message from Outlook to four different email addresses, all but the sending AOL address can view images on the 3GS. The second AOL email account which can open and view files & images is set up identically as the other AOL.Quirky but I can simply not send to that one non-working AOL address. Thanks again for your help.
