Description

Returns the complete Data url for an image stored in a container field. This is very useful for displaying images in web pages. The function tries to make data urls from the images in the container field in the following order: Tiff, PNG, GIF, JPEG Unfortunately, FileMaker on Windows XP doesn't display image urls very well since it is based on Internet Explorer which doesn't like Image URLs.
