Reading images from URL without knowing the format

I have an image url like this: http://example.com/image.php?id=5605. How do I get the actual image from such an URL? I have tried using ImageIO.read and loading the url directly into an ImageIcon without success.

yeah,
I knew a little about linearization and but the idea was to help quick loading the very first page of a document while the rest of the data still is arriving. Not exactly what I needed here.
Anyway, you have just confirmed my fears, I will have to know the document size, where exactly it ends on my stream, in order to correctly load it.
I appreciate your help sir. Thanks for your time.
Best regards.

How to insert cropped images from photoshop without the white background

Basically all I want to do is take a peice of writing from a video and insert it into another video. To do this I've took a screenshot of the font from the video and imported it into photoshop. I've then cropped/cut/took the the peice of writing I want, letter by letter. I want to be able to insert it into another video, but whenever I attempt to do it, I have the default white background of photoshop. Is there anyway to insert an image from photoshop, without taking the background with it, or even insert a layer from photoshop straight into final cut pro? Sorry if this is confusing.

I don't think so. I cropped the letters, put them each an individual file, removed the background, saved them as a TIF then tried to import them onto Final Cut Pro, but a white background still appeared in the TIF file. Basically I just want to make the background transparent I believe.

If I donwload e-books from various e-book retailers and want to back them up on an external hard drive without losing the format, do I need a special hard drive?

If I download e-books from various e-book retailers and want to back them up on an external hard drive without losing the format, do I need to know anything special?

I just looked into this as I was moving my iPad to a new computer for synching. With no thanks to Kobo for any really useful information on their help site (this discussion was the most useful info I found), I think the following may address your issue with respect to Kobo.
1. There is not easy or official way to back up Kobo books from your iPad.
2. Kobo keep track of your personal library. Go to the Kobo website (Kobo.com) and sign in to your account. On the very top line is "My Library". That contains (or at least Kobo says it does) everything you have ever bought from Kobo. Kobo say that you may download any of this content to other devices you own at no charge.
3. I synched my iPad to the new computer. According to Apple, that will delete all my data as the apps are re-installed from the new compute. While all my apps got moved around from the order I previously had (many thanks Apple), all my books are still there together with my bookmarks etc. Looks like this did nothing to change any Kobo data.
While I do not like the idea that I cannot create a backup on my main computer, it is probably safer in the long run that there is a backup at Kobo. After all, I could lose all my equipment in a fire or something, and then personal backups would be of little use.

Hi Allen,

Can we send a request without knowing the actual url..

Tomcat is running at the back.
I know the port no on which the server is running now.
Can we send a request to the server even if we dont know the exact url
for example I developed a form which authenticates the user, after authenticating the url will be some thing like this
http://localhost:8090/temp/AdminRegister?uname=user?pass=user123now can the user login even without knowing the exact username and password by manipulating the url..

it is your own risk to your applets to communicate with DBs because nobody suggests that. I agree with the Javascript story and the frames. It can be done but i thought he wanted to do that in one single page. And finally, i dont trust frames that much. I have seen many times the 404 error found on pages and because i use dynamic pages i have to make connection for each frame. and with throusands users being online it is bad for my server (traffic).

Good Afternoon irish357,
I know the importance of saving and updating your contacts. What type of phone do you have? If you are using Backup Assistant, you have the ability to sync the contacts between your laptop and phone. You will also be able to see if all your contacts are stored on the online portion of the application versus the phone itself. The contacts should be the same for both online and the phone.
I have attached a link below for your reference.

I hope this information is helpful in resolving your concerns.

Read images from external jar file (Sun's Java L&F Graphics repository)

Hi!
I don't know how to read images from an external jar file. Sun has a Java Look and Feel graphics repository that contains a lot of good images that can be used on buttons and so on. This repository is delivered as a jar file, containing only images, and I want to read the image files from that jar file directly without including them inside my application jar file. The application and image jar files will be in the same directory.
I have absolutely no clue how to solve this. Is it necessary to include the images inside my application jar file or is it possible to have them separate as I want.
Would really appreciate some help!
Best regards
Lars

Hi,
There is two ways :
1) Add your jarfile to the classpath.
Use the class loader :
URL url = ClassLoader.getSystemResource("your/package/image.gif");
Image im = (new ImageIcon(url)).getImage();
or
Image im = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(url);2)If you don't want to add the jar to the classpath you can use this (under jdk 1.4):
import java.util.*;
import java.util.jar.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.awt.image.*;
import javax.imageio.*;
public class ImageUtilities {
     public static Image getImage(String jarFileName, String fileName) {
          BufferedImage image = null;
          try {
               JarFile jar = new JarFile(new File(jarFileName), false, JarFile.OPEN_READ);
               JarEntry entry = jar.getJarEntry(fileName);
               BufferedInputStream stream = new BufferedInputStream(jar.getInputStream(entry));
               image = ImageIO.read(stream) ;
          catch (Exception ex) {
               System.out.println(ex);
          return(image);
}I hope this helps,

Unable to read WSDL from URL

This is my first web service. I thought I read that the
service registers itself when first run, but it's just not jumping
for me. I'd try registering it, but I'm not sure how to fill in all
the blanks in the CF Administrator's Register Web Service form.
I believe I'm doing this pretty plain and simple. Any ideas
why this won't work? Tried both methods, both give the same error
-- "Unable to read WSDL from URL"
Calling URL:
http://prod.trollsoftware.com/echotest.cfm
Is looking at:
http://prod.trollsoftware.com/trollws.cfc?wsdl
which looks fine to me, but what do I know? This is my
first....
RLS

I found this wonderful forum post
{HERE}">http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=7&threadid=881689[/S
and have been tyring to get it to run without removing the "/"
mapping in case that would "break" something on my production
server. I've tried hard to get Approach #2 to work as listed in
that item, but to no avail. I can almost always see the XML code,
but CF never wants to find it as an object reference.
To answer your questions -- and thank you for your help on
this! --
1. Yes. I can see the XML code just fine.
2. No. I get unknown host, connection failure, status not
available.
3. Doesn't work with IP, but that was expected as there are
many domains on this server, not just this one.
So, to continue, I thought I'd back up and try it on my CF7
server. The program runs from here [
http://www.saphea.com/echotest.cfm
against the WSDL/CFC file here [
http://components.findaportal.com/wsdl/trollws.cfc?wsdl
I can see the XML file just fine, but the echotest does not work
(code attached).
I created a mapping of "/wsdl" to
"d:\clients\components\wsdl" in trying to emulate Approach #2, and
created a web subdomain of
http://components.findaportal.com
to "d:\clients\components", but no dice. Approach #2 may have to be
abandoned.
Why would it work for you and not me? That's the weird part.

Download image from URL with applescript

I want to download an image from an website (and internal IP address) using applescript,
now I have found a script that works (Download jpeg image to folder with AppleScript from URL).
But, the web page requires a username and password...
When I convert the downloaded JPEG into a HTML by simply changing the extension, quick look displays the webpage's 401 unauthorized error page...
Does someone know how to make the applescript input the username and password?

The answer depends on how the authentication is managed.
There are two common ways of implementing authentication in web browsers and knowing which one is used here is essential to scripting the request. One is also significantly harder than the other.
The first (easy) way is that the username and password can be submitted with the request. This is the original model and is easy to script - if you're using the curl model then it's just a matter of adding the -user switch to the command line:
       -u, --user <user:password>
              Specify the user name and password to use for server authentica-
              tion. Overrides -n, --netrc and --netrc-optional.
This model is a little less secure, though, but might still be used on internal sites since it's easy to implement.
The other option is that the site uses cookies - you log in via a web form and the server gives your cookie which you then send with subsequent requests and are used to validate your access. This is a more secure, but is harder to implement because there is a multi-step process - login via the web form, capture the cookie, submit the cookie with the download request.
If you're not familiar with the different methods it can sometimes be hard to tell which one you need, and since it's an internal site there's no way anyone else can check... so you'll need to describe how you login to the site (or are prompted for authentication) before anyone can provide a direct answer.

How do I erase all images from a card in the Cannon Rebel t3

how do I erase all images from a card in the Cannon Rebel t3

Hello debrusso,
I would just like to give some quick advice that you all may already know but I was just told this countless of times that I thought you all would like to know. \
I have been told by numerous of photography professors that it is always best to try to format your camera every now and then. Because your memory card is not really deleting the photos but rather hiding it somewhere. This is a problem because it still takes space from your card. The solution to this is to FORMAT because it is one of the safest ways for your camera to erase images. It also sets up properly for your camera like new. But make sure to save your images before doing formatting. I have had many silly accidents this way. Lol.

Can not read file from URL

I have this code for loadbitmap() function:
String s = getCodeBase()+sdir+sfile;
System.out.println("codeBase is=" + s);
URL url = new URL(s);
InputStream fs = url.openStream();
BufferedInputStream bs = new BufferedInputStream(fs);
And the file is a .bmp file, so I go on decoding this etc. It works fine within VisualCafe.
When I created a virtual directory in IIS and run this applet from
http://localhost/ImageApplet/ImageApplet.html address:
I get in 1.3.1 Plug-in this error:
codeBase is=http://localhost/ImageApplet/duke/some1.BMP
Caught exception in loadbitmap!java.io.FileNotFoundException: http://localhost/ImageApplet/duke/some1.BMP
If a type this as address in browser, it shows the image.
Could any one tell me what I am doing wrong here?

You can try this, even though it is not supposed to be different from your original code:
URL url = new URL(getCodeBase(), sdir+sfile);
System.out.println("getting image from " + url);
InputStream fs = url.openStream();
BufferedInputStream bs = new BufferedInputStream(fs);
I could understand a SecurityException but a FileNotFoundException... A FileNotFoundException... You are reading from a stream originating from a URL, not a file!!!
Which line causes the exception?

But how do I create a new iTunes backup password without knowing the previous one?

In case anyone keeps track of such things, I'm among those folks who really doesn't recall ever being asked to create an iTunes backup password, but that's irrelevant to my question.
I'm not in any bind. I don't need my backup files to restore anything. I will shed no tears as they are moved to the Recycle Bin (indeed, I will gladly do the deed myself).
That said, it appears impossible to create a new backup password without knowing the previous one.
If the only "solution" is to wipe my iPhone's memory and start from scratch, I will be a sad camper.
Any help? Are backups to iCloud encrypted?
Cheers...

Additionally:
Be super critical & meticulous (and whatever other synonym I missed) when you get a new password:
Write it onto your bedroom wall, or someplace off of a computer that you will always find.
If you active 2-step verification, the key is VERY important. Lose it & you may be toast.
If you don’t 2 step verify, & use the Security Question instead --> do not lose, or forget the answers.
Very nearly the same outcome!!!!!: Bad experience.
If you add a 2nd email address, make sure its a RESCUE address not just an alternate address.
If you lose these, you lose access to your 3rd party purchases via Appstore for future upgrade. That will make you VEWY, VEWY UNHAPPY. Apple new OS versions do update, but add a new device & likely you will be unable to use your content on that device. It will never load if the ID locks up.
