bump.

here's an example of the querystring. it appends the end of the .jpg. http://www.ephman.com/sites/default/files/shigurui.jpg?1254927881 any help with trying to remove that would be very much appreciated.

thanks,

see imagecache_create_url() the parameter is used to work around the browser caching. if we made it a named parameter would that be better? ?v=1232345245 or something like that?

#3

unfortunately still making it a named parameter would still not work for my needs. is there a way for me to disable the browser caching in the code?

Could you shed a little more light on what exactly are your needs? A query parameter is an essential part of a URL, and should never cause any problems.

sorry it's taken me a bit to respond, your help is very much apprciated. a friend of mine runs a company called http://www.mofuse.com that takes my rss feed out of drupal and converts it into a mobile site. very cool stuff if you're into mobile. they just released an upgrade that takes the image out of rss feed, and generates a thumbnail for the teaser. http//m.ephman.com the issue is that their system does not understand the querystring after the .jpg. in the past they tried to allow non standard looking image files but it messed up people's mobile sites. obviously i know you can't support their platform. but your module is essential to the function of my main site http://www.ephman.com

thanks,
