Images can be imported into CopySafe
Web and processed in batches of up 1,000 at a time. The
limiting criteria is governed by the file size of the
images and the available memory on the computer running
the software.
Once you have your encrypted images
they can also be delivered on the fly using templates to
display the database results. Most of the applet
parameters may apply to all images within a category or
folder and can be static parameters in your templates. The
important parameters that will vary between images can be
image name, with and height.
To enhance database delivery CopySafe
Web now saves encrypted images with a new name that
includes the width and height for the applet/image. For
example: Your_image0300-0200_C.class. For assistance in
creating such templates that extract these details, please
email for support.
It's now possible to use both programs from the same codebase. Each program uses different class files and the image.class file names are also different. CopySafe images end with ****_C.class
With previous versions, to display encrypted images in
a security applet, the governing parameters such as applet
size and image file size had to be recorded additional to
just using an image name.
If your image is named as
'Sunset_over_Darwin.jpg' and it is then encrypted and
renamed as Sunset_over_Darwin_0320_0280_C.class. by using
<%= artisImageName %> you can display "Sunset
over Darwin" anywhere on the page for a title or menu
link.
The ASP code to check if class file
and get size details for example:
testImageName = rs.Fields("ItemImage")
Function RemoveLeadingZeroes(ByVal str)
Dim tempStr
tempStr = str
While Left(tempStr,1) = "0" AND tempStr <> ""
tempStr = Right(tempStr,Len(tempStr)-1)
Wend
RemoveLeadingZeroes = tempStr
End Function
If Right(testImageName,6) = ".class" then
removeFileExt = Replace(testImageName,".class","")
artisFileType= "class"
tempSizeString = split(removeFileExt, "_")
artisImageEncrypt = Right(removeFileExt,1)
tempSizeAll = Right(removeFileExt,11)
tempStripSize = split(tempSizeAll, "_")
tempSizeHeight = tempStripSize(1)
tempSizeWidth = tempStripSize(0)
tempImageName = Replace(removeFileExt,tempSizeAll,"")
artisImageName = Replace(tempImageName,"_"," ")
artisImageWidth = RemoveLeadingZeroes(tempSizeWidth)
artisImageHeight = RemoveLeadingZeroes(tempSizeHeight)
end if
The above script will strip portions
of the file name giving several parameters that can be
used to configure the security applet on the fly.
Image = <%= rs.Fields("ItemImage")%>
Template = <%= artisImageTemplate %>
Image width = <%= artisImageWidth %>
Image height = <%= artisImageHeight %>
File type = <%= artisFileType %>
Image Encrypt = <%= artisImageEncrypt %>
Image name = <%= artisImageName %>
If the image is in fact .class
artisImageTemplate will return either 'C' for CopySafe
or 'S' for Secure Image which can be used to determine
which template to use for the applet (Secure Image applets
are different).
if artisImageEncrypt = "S" AND
artisFileType = "class" then
artisImageTemplate = "secimage"
elseif artisImageEncrypt = "C" AND artisFileType = "class"
then
artisImageTemplate = "copysafe"
else
artisImageTemplate = "normal"
end if
The above code was prepared for a
custom catalogue where the client can add products using a
web form and select various display options to apply to
items within the same category or grouping. For example
one product may be displayed as a normal jpg, while
another might use a Secure Image or CopySafe Web encrypted
image. All images are uploaded to the same folder which
serves as the codebase for the entire catalogue.
