Serving Image from controller (warning newbie alert)

[eluser]MattEth[/eluser]
[quote author="graf" date="1251778068"]did you try to echo out the file_get_contents after you sent the header type?

This should work ;-]

Code:

function serve_images {
  $imageString = file_get_contents('http://blah.com/myimage.gif');
  header("Content-Type: image/gif");
  echo $imageString;
}

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I did try this, however, the image is still broken (ie. the browser things the image is not valid). Anyone else have any ideas? Maybe there is a better way to do what I'm trying to do?

Thanks!
