Hi plp.
I have my canvas where I show an image (it's 400x400px, but I resize it to 100x100 in code), and I want to let my users double-click it in order to view the image in fullsize. The problem is that I don't want them to see the full path of the image, and with my current method (I just execute an instance of IE with the path of the file as parameter) that's not possible. Is there any method to do that with Forms?

Thanks a lot for your help!

See u

Hi,
I believe the Oracle corp answer would be...store the images in the database.


Best Regards,
Lars

I tried to put a double-click trigger in my image element, and then execute WEBUTIL_HOST.NONBLOCKING to launch a new instance of iexplore with the path of the image. The problem is that iexplore doesn't appear. I tried with other exes, like notepad, and everything is ok. Why is notepad being executed successfully and iexplore fails?

webutil_host.nonblocking('cmd /c notepad'); --> this works
webutil_host.nonblocking('cmd /c iexplore'); --> this doesn't work, the command windows appears a few seconds and nothing more

If I execute a cmd command and write 'iexplore', it works. Umm, I'm a bit confused with that, any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I did a search for 'webutil_host' and found http://www.orafaq.com/forum/m/178821/67467/?srch=webutil_host#msg_178821

Does this help?

The problem was that I musn't write 'cmd /c iexplore', only 'iexplore'. Thanks a lot.
