[Image-SIG] Unable to load dynamic image into browser

[Marshintprop]

I do not seem to have success in generating a dynamic image into Internet
Explorer through CGI.  If I save the file and then load it, it works but
when I try to keep the generated image dynamic.  I am using Python 2.6.5 and
the corresponding PIL library.

 

f = cStringIO.StringIO()

img.save(f, "PNG")

 

print "Content-type: image/png\n"

f.seek(0)

print f.read()

 

The above will just generate a screen filled with ascii characters and
symbols.  I have also tried JPEG to no avail.

 

Below generates a blank image:

 

sys.stdout.write('Status: 200 OK\r\n')

sys.stdout.write('Content-type: image/png\r\n\n')

sys.stdout.write('%s' % f.getvalue())

sys.stdout.write('\r\n')

 

Can someone point out my error here?  Writing to file in a cgi environment
is not a great thing to be doing.  Img.sav('test.png') is valid.
