Re: drawImage returns false for Microsoft Java

Thank you for replying.
You are correct. It is JAVA 1.1 but documentation is very vague on this
one something like "supported format such as GIF or JPEG" so I was
wondering if PNG was there. Do you actually know if there is a list of
supported formats for 1.1 to put this issue to rest?

And more importantly if I have bytes containing PNG image and a have to
get them displayed under java 1.1 what are my options?

Read the javadoc of class java.net.ContentHandler, how you can extend the set of supported image formats. It involves developing a ContentHandler for the MIME-type "image/png".
To get the built-in set of supported image formats, look into the main zip/jar file(s) of your Java runtime and see what class files are in package "sun.net.www.content.image". In Java 1.4 I find:
gif, jpeg, png, x_bitmap, x_pixmap.
In Java 1.1 there are probably less than those.
