Hi, I think you are trying to load some sort of tracking gif of an outside provider right? In that case, just load the gif through the exact url you have been given. So if the url mentioned said "bla.asp?a=5&b=7&c=8" etc, use that in your load function. The external provider will make sure it is a gif being returned.

" !? when someone asked you to load the gif bye applying the mentioned url excactly the same person has to make sure, that you will get a gif in return. maybe he meant you should send the name of the gif you want to load via variables like: loadMovie("http://www.server.com/page.asp?var1=1x1.gif"); ?
