if he can't use createObject(), he almost certainly won't be allowed to
use CFEXECUTE either =)
Les - I realize that you don't have access to the CF Administrator,
CFX_Image. Not sure if that's too much java but I use it.

Who re-sizes images manually now days?
You can use CFX_OPENIMAGE to take care of these types of problems in the

Les, I understand your frustration with this situation. You can do
everything above and beond to show a client how to make the best use of
their website (meaning, take the time to touch up every image you put on
your site like your a MAXIM editor) but in the end, people don't have the

I'm trying to work out why you can't do this natively inline through Java -
If you have a look at javax.imageio.ImageIO you should be able to find
all you need.
Let me know if you have any problems.
