vbscript, deleting temp images

deleting temp images

minime23 #1 / 6	deleting temp images Hello all, I am using Shotgraph to dynamically generate images for my asp pages, and I'm trying to determine the most efficient way to delete the generated images after they are sent to the client. Ideally, I'd like to be able to delete each image right after they've been sent to the client. I've tried using the File System Object to delete the image, but I don't know of any way to implement the File System Object on the same asp page without deleting the file before it's sent to the client (and that includes turning the buffer off). I've also considered using a session variable to store the names of each image generated (the names are random strings) and delete those images at the end of the session, but if the client doesn't allow cookies that won't work (I am right there?!) I would really appreciate any tips or solutions on this issue. Thanks in advance, minime2323 The jolly green midget

Mikhail Tchikalo #3 / 6	deleting temp images You can write a small .VBS script performing such removing, for example, removing files older than 1 day. This script can easy be executed from schedule service ('at' command from command line) automatically once every day. Best regards, Mikhail.

Jacek Zarzyck #4 / 6	deleting temp images You can make an deleteFile.exe It will use Timer and remove files older then MyDate. Start deleteFile.exe as a service. Jacek :-) * Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com * Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!
