Greetings from California! I'm currently at Mike Poindexter's, and this evening we worked on printing out high quality 17x22 posters on glossy photo paper. I have a slight problem, which I just can't place. I'm planning on giving Suzanne Rich a call (...) (25 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.events) !

(...) yup, you could do that, easy... also (cooler, imo): /space/viper and have it call the "space" script with the viper arg :) Look at: (URL) it's subdirectories... :) Dan (25 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) I figured that much. Does this mean I could also just format it like this: /space/space.shtml?viper since I'll prolly only have the one variable? Could I also name the ssi file index.shtml and call it like this: /space/?viper Thanks for the (...) (25 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) not that easily - it's a "get" form, so it'll all be on the commandline, I think, but you'll still have to decode it (?xxx=yyy&aaa=bbb etc) also decode stuff like %20 to spaces... much easier to use the CGI module to parse it all for you an (...)

Hi all you HTML/SSI/etc savvy people, I'm looking into making my website easy to update. What I'd like to do is create a template using Server Side Includes, and then have the URL be something like: /space.shtml?model=viper The page would then (...)

(...) Agreed. Further, in your example, you're going from 640x480 to 320x240 (2:1)in your reduced image. Consider getting more aggressive in your size reduction, the point of a thumbnail is to have lots and lots of them on a page and then follow (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.publish)

(...) Right. The width tag isn't really meant for scaling. It exists so that the page layout engine can know how big a graphic is going to be before loading it. Making separate thumbnail images is The Right Way. (25 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.publish)

(...) If you want to save downloading time for the page-viewer, then that is the best way to do it. Some people use the 'width' attribute to show a thumbnailed image, but it still downloads the full image and scales it down to match the width. So if (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.publish)

Hi, Is there a "proper" way to create thumbnails? Basically, what I do is transfer the 640x480 image from my camera to my computer. Then I create another version of the image (say, 50% of the original 320x240). Finally, on my page I'll have the (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.publish)
