Create a cache dir in /img (off webroot) then create an ImgController with a cache() function (or a diferently named controller/function and set up a Route).
When a file is not found in /img/cache the ImgController->cache function is called where you can create the image and place it in your /img/cache directory. If successful, redirect back to the original image or pipe the image straight back. This works extremely well for me, so I hope the functionality doesn't go away :) HTH ~GreyCells On Apr 5, 1:11 am, "rtconner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It seems I'm going to have to work with a few dynamic images.
