The following works: put "http://fake.com/fake.jpg" into k set the filename of img 1 to k
To get the correct dimensions I guess you would have to find the dimensions of the online jpg, then make you img the same dimensions. Just a thought.

I have a page with a image control I know how to SELECT the imagepath info and bring it into a variable, but how do I then load that image into the image control (with proper proportions)? I tried the obvious ways and nothing worked for me. The image control is named imgCandidatePic (just a small 140x140 square). A sample path would be http://www.server.com/userfiles/bear_harry/mypic.jpg for example I need to get that picture into the image control when the card loads (so in the card script using opencard). Thanks for your help everyone.
