Thumbs up Files in urls!!!


This maybe geek & latin to a layman… so anyone who doesn’t understand @least some html, please don’t stress ur brain in this.

A recent travel thru the LifeHacker brought me to a method to incorporate a file into a link. Using this method, we can convert and encode a binary file into a web-link which can be understood and displayed correctly by a browser. This is done using a URI called data: used in this way data:image/jpeg;base64,base_64_encodedfilecomeshere

Uses? Lots actually… for a beginning, u don’t need to upload ur pics to any other site, u can directly add them to the url(or in this matter uri) as text data! Which means data storage within a web page or blog entry! Post images or files to forums that allow url posting, sneak attachments past grumpy email filters…

A sample of my previous avatar

Original source here

Make sample data uri's here

@koolbluez, was that a pun or a spelling mistake?

"geek and latin to a layman" should have been "gReek and latin to a layman"

Tnx guyz for the rep...

Another use I got of the method

Check out the answer of the question itself coded into the page, instead of me uploading a different file online as solution.

I love this hack, maan....
