In other words, is there some way to get Ajax to push an image?
Is there some reason this just can't work? Or does it work already and my eyes skipped over it?
It would be nice, sometimes, to have RMagick or whatever generate an image on the fly and then write it to a part of the page. Think graphs based on database info. And so on.
Hmmm. I just thought of rendering a partial with a generated image tag. I guess an image could be given a temporary URL. I'd prefer to write it directly from memory, though.
