Author Problem getting dimensions of an image in a Posting

Hello

I hope someone can help me with this.

I want to get the height and width of an image in a Posting. The image
is stored in an ImagePlaceholder, but it is not stored in the Resource
Gallery.

I have found a description in this group saying I must use an HTTP
request to get the image via the URL in the Src property. However,
when I try this I only get a 401 Unauthorized error.

Does anyone know a way to get around this?

Regards

Hi Nils,

the only way to achieve this is to do a HttpWebRequest to the URL of the
resource and consume the response stream in an Image object.
Then check the dimensions on the image object.

Cheers,
Stefan

Hello Chester,

This was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very much!

Just a follow-up question: What permissions do the user used in the
NetworkCredential need? I am thinking of creating a new user for this
use.

Hi Nils,

the user needs to have subscriber access to the image the URL points to.

Cheers,
Stefan
