Getting a Web Image

[developer155]

I need to get an image from the web (I know url) and use Java to create HTML file and display that image. So what I am doing is establishing the connection to the Web in the program and connecting to the image URL. Now I guess I would need to get the source for that image into a buffer I guess. Is there any way to do this? Also, is there a better way to copy an image from web page when I know the url?

thanks

hi

i don't know is there any special method to get image from url.

you may try to find image src from url.

int i = htmlInYourUrl.indexOf("src"); //gives index of first src found in html

and read the image just like a file you read from your local disc.
or like how you read html text from url.

hi

this may help you

URL url = new URL(strUrl);
URLConnection uc = url.openConnection();
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(uc.getInputStream()));
String strInputLine = new String();
while ((strInputLine = in.readLine()) != null){
  strRetVal = strRetVal + strInputLine;
}
in.close();
return strRetVal;
