When you are calling it in an image tag, your browser treats it as a completely separate HTTP request. So instead of thinking it as an include file, think of it as a separate request/instance altogether.

Excellent thanks, worked perfectly.

I used some url info on it as images to be displayed depends on member and member settings.

The include file called by the IMG tag is still after headers are already sent.

You are probably getting errors because you tried to send a header after sending output.

You do have to output the raw image data, and you need to have a separate script for that. Put that code in your original post in its own PHP file, and call it like it was an image from your main page:

<img src="http://www.example.com/path/to/script.php" />
