Images in XML with CSS
- Thread starter b4x0r
- Start date
XML has a tough time with binary data -- you usually end up storing it as base-64 encoded, and having that display (via a CSS or any other web technology) is difficult (you have to go through real code to do it).
There are two ways to do this:
1) Don't store the image in the XML, store the path to the image.
2) Store the image as base-64 encoded data in the XML, then write code to convert it back into a binary format, and append it to the HTML stream with the correct MIME encoding.
