I'd be very interested to see how you went about doing that.

ok I uploaded the teddy bears.
Are you the same chap who was asking about how to do this months ago on here?
- ********0
nice teddies. go mets.
yeah, probably me...basically the images are loaded into flash, pulled from xml data created by a php script, which calls to a MySQL database. The database is populated by some PERL and PHP that check the email server every 10 seconds, grab the attachment, resize/rename it, ftp it and then add it to the database.
sorry that was kind of a backward explanation...

mate thats really nice and super quick - did you use perl instead of CRON
- ********0
perl. mi amigo sean s. did the perl and the php before it got to the db.
The email is checked every 5 seconds .
