Reading image outside webapp contextpath??

I'm making a project that makes a picture gallery that has to be accessible throw web, wap, webdav and file sharing. The project consisting of a ejb backend and struts frontend(using velocity as presentation).
I have made the EJB backend so that each dir with pictures in has a xml file contaning all the pictures file address, thumbnail file address, a wapnail file address and a name.
Now my problem is in the sturts frontend, when I what to show the gallery. Tomcat will not show the picture because it is outside me webapp contextpath.
How do I make tomcat look in this "shared" dir where I got me pic?
Or do I have to do it in a other way?
This is my html:
<img src="C:/ProjectGallery/web/testGallery/webthumb/T_billed4.jpeg" alt="C:/ProjectGallery/web/testGallery/webthumb/T_billed4.jpeg" > If this is the wrong forum then pls let me know so that I can post in the right place.
Thank you all very much ;-)
/Marc

try this instead
<img src="testGallery/webthumb/T_billed4.jpeg" alt="C:/ProjectGallery/web/testGallery/webthumb/T_billed4.jpeg" >
for further details, call me on at......[email protected]

Access images outside of tomcat

Hi,
Is it possible to have a servlet access image files from a cd or external hard drive? I keep most photos within the webapp but due to size limitations some of the photos need to be moved to external media. I wan't to be able to read and report from either a DVD or an external hard drive but I'm not sure if it is possible for tomcat to read files outside of the tomcat directories.
Thanks

I have a servlet called ReportController and it outputs HTML.
response.setContentType("text/html");
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
on my desktop i setup tomcat and i just had to do the following to display an image:
out.println("<img src="c:/photos/"+photo_name+" height="+height+" width="+width+">");
now that i added tomcat to my laptop and set everything up the same the images don't show up. Is there a security issue I am missing? Or something else?
Thanks

Anchored images outside of button frame

Hi Experts
I am trying to find a way of getting an image to become visible on rollover on a button I've created, without having the image positioned within the button frame. The images are large & I have several small buttons on the page, each linked to text frames with anchored text objects (the images.) Anchoring the images outside the text frame is no problem, but visibility is limited to the button frame.How do I link large images to small buttons that only activate on rollover? Any ideas? PLEASE help!

Convert that image you want to appear to separate button, and attach show/hide buttons action to your real button. Use rollover as trigger for showing your image, and rollout for hiding it again....

Problems while accessing images outside the web document-root folder

This is one of the least satisfactory aspects of site management in Dreamweaver, and several developers, including myself, have been pressuring the Dreamweaver team for some years to improve this. Who knows? They might eventually take notice.
The only way to do this at the moment is to create two site definitions, one nested inside the other. Set up the site definition normally based on htdocs as your site root. Then create a new site definition based on site. Dreamweaver will nag you that it can cause problems, but it won't actually stop you from doing it. The only potential problem is with site synchronization.
The problem with using site as the only basis for your site definition is that Dreamweaver automatically puts things like the Connections, Scripts, and other folders in the site root. So, everything ends up at the wrong level of the site hierarchy. Quite frankly, the whole thing is a bit of a pain. Dynamic site development was added to Dreamweaver only in version 6 (Dreamweaver MX), and no one had really thought through the need to store files outside the site root.

Hmm, that was my best shot.
1) Do you have all of the latest updates applied?
2) Did you try all of the work-arounds listed in the comments. Granted some of them are definite hacks
3) Just to cover all the bases, do you get the same result with both ImageResize() and ImageScaleToFit()?
If all else fails, you could always go the java route and try some java code to do the resize. Obviously not the ideal, but it is worth a shot. IIRC there is a thread around here somewhere with the cf/java code. But that was from before the switch in forums and I will be darned if I can find it right now!
Update: I will play around the sample image you posted tomorrow. Just to see if I can come up with anything.

Write/read image to avi file, VI works incorrectly from the second run

Hi everybody, in my labview I write image from IMAQ USB to avi file and read image from avi file, the VI runs correctly at the first run then after that it goes wrong, I can write/read only one frame and it terminates automatically. Does anybody know why and how to solve this?
Thanks a lot,
Hannah

Without seeing your code I can't comment specifically, but if it runs correctly the first time and then stops be looking for something that is not getting reinitialized correctly. Also what exactly do you have to do to get it to work again? Close and reopen the VI? Restart LV? Restart the computer?

Cannot read image file in oracle 10g forms, getting error frm-47100

I'm unable to read the image from the file location. But If I do re-save via MS-Paint the same image then I'm able to load successfully. I want to load image directly instead of re-save. Error getting like "frm-47100 Cannot read image file".
Need your co-operation to solve this issue.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Sindhu,
By default any operating system file extension starts after the dot. So in this case when it says 2 dots it will think there is something wrong.

Read image metadata

Hi All,
Question: Can we read image meta data from CS extension code by any way ?
I tried it with xmp core library and passed a jpeg file to xmpMeta object which expect a String, a XML or Byte Array as argument:
private function getImageMetadata(jpeg:File):void
                              var meta:XMPMeta = new XMPMeta(jpeg);
                              var packet:XML = meta.serializeToXML();
                              var photoshop:Namespace = XMPConst.photoshop;
                              var value:String = meta.photoshop::AuthorsPosition;
If I was able to convert jpeg file to Byte Array, I my guess to be work but I'm not able to find it workable.
Can someone help me to complete the task?
Thanks
Mac

Read image raw data without creating image

Is there any way to read image raw data into an array from a file but not creating an image ? I looked through ImageIO. It seems that every time an image reader is called , a bufferediamge is created or reused ?
Tanks fro any advice.

Read Image File Error

When I read image with Read_Image_File procedure i got an error in specified files 'FRM-47100 can not read image c:\abc.jpg'
i think it is on high resolution please promply resolve it. its very urgent
best regards
R E H AN M I R Z A

Hello,
Found this on Metalink:
Problem Description
You are trying to use READ_IMAGE_FILE in forms to read a JPG image,
but you receive the following error:
FRM-47100: Cannot read image file <file name>
You checked the following:
o You are able to open the image file from Netscape or Internet Explorer and
see your image correctly.
o You are also sure that the file exists under the location mentioned in the
first parameter to READ_IMAGE_FILE built-in.
o You tried other JPG files that are located in the demo directory of the
Developer home and you can see the image loaded in the image item.
Solution Description
There are many JPEG formats. The only JPEG format supported in Forms is the
JPEG File Interchange Format (JFIF) which is the baseline sequential DCT JPEG.
Progressive JPEG (as well as Lossless JPEG and Hierarchical JPEG),
are not currently supported.
Possibly your image file is stored using one of the non-supported formats.
As a workaround, you can convert progressive JPEG format to and from baseline
JPEG. There is a free set of programs provided by the Independent JPEG Group
that allows this.
The Independent JPEG Group home page is: http://www.ijg.org/

Read-image-file show jpeg photo cause error

I use read-image-file to show a jpeg photo (edited by ACDSEE) cause frm-47100. I know that Oracle may not support the Jpeg format of ACDSee. But, anyone know how to solve this problem. (I have to keep using ACDSee)

If you remove the metadata from a JPEG it should usually do the trick. I don't know how to do that in ACDSee, though.
