Thank you _agx_ and Randhawa for the response.
it is cf 11 server on a Unix box
looks like this is a permissions issue on the server. Is there a way we could do this without writing to any location? Like an in memory.

I am willing to try Jquery sol too, if you could suggest.

id you tried my code @dan

Why not just apply the appropriate permissions? If that's the problem, fixing them would resolve the issue and allow you to use cfimage action="writeToBrowser"?
f_image/.. ..
Possible alternatives are:
A) It could be done without writing to a file, but would require 2 pages:
1. First page reads the image into a variable, resizes it and returns the binary using <cfcontent> and ImageGetBlob(imageVariable )
2. Second page would call 1st page via an image tag, ie
<img src="pageThatDoesResize.cf m?params=x xx&.....">
B) Read the image into a variable. Do the resize. Then use ImageWrite() to save the image file to a directory with the right permissions and. Then display the saved file with a standard <img> tag.
Having said all that, image manipulation is resource intensive. If possible, it is better to resize only once rather than doing it on the fly - on every page load.

Thank you for help
Welcome. So how did you finally solve the problem? Fix permissions?
Open in new window
to read the image before you resize, that code is not in your snippet, i hope you are doing it, but not sure, so i added it
