ASP changes Big JPG -> Small JPG

[Yannick]

Hey everybody,

Do you know if ASP can change a JPG file in a smaller defined size JPG.
Do you have an exemple of it.
Imagine the JPG is on the C: drive of my server and called PIC.JPG.

Thanks in advance.

You can just set the width and height values of your img tag to what you
want the size to be, as one option. If you want to physically manipulate
the file on the server, you'll need to use a third party component or do
this using asp.net. I believe that asp.net has some image manipulation
built into it.

Thanks Ray for the info, but I need to manipulate the photo. Resizing can
look good but the time to download the page will be the same.

Any other idea to resize the JPG from ASP ?

Thanks

If you want to physically manipulate
Search aspfaq.com for image component solutions, i.e.

We use a component from LeadTools for image manipulation. It's probably
got more features than you need, with a corresponding cost, but it works
well for us.

There's no other idea - if you want to do it in ASP you need a third-party
component.
