You usually have to put them in a cgi area. Now that said, I'm assuming you want to generate some imagery through web interactions? If so, the problem is that there is substantial start up time of the IDV (a java thing) so it probably won't work well in that context. We will be doing some work this spring to allow for the IDV to run all of the time in the background to overcome this limitation. -Jeff Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: CAM-696417 Department: Support IDV Priority: Normal Status: Closed
