How can I edit image...

[Ather Ali Shaikh]

Hi all,
How can I edit an Image opened in the browsers and saves it with a new
name.

The scenario is that I received an email having some attached documents in
the image format.

I read that document but there is some problem in the scanning or
overwriting. So, I need to mark that place with a circle or write some
comments against that unreadable text on the same image. and replied back to
the sender.

How do I do this.

Regards

I take it that you read that "mail" in a browser (why else post here?)

If you want to change the image client-side in a browser, you need to use either
an ActiveX component, or a Java component.
A different option would be to use server-side imagemap functionality:
- user clicks somewhere on the image
- form gets posted back to the server, along with the click-coordinates
- you change the image on the server, to include some marking at that position
- the fresh page shows an updated image
- after a "done" command you send the updated image
(I skipped a few steps here to highlight the action on the image)

If you want to do this within some mail client, you should save the attachment
some place, fire up your image-editor-of-choice, edit the image and
send back that changed image in a reply.
