referring to a remote image

[MadCommando]

Is it possible to have a variable assigned to the location of a picture, and without displaying the image find it's dimensions. Ex.

<script>
picsrc="http://www.mysite.com/mypic.jpg"
picheight=img.picsrc.height
</script>

I know this is probably the wrong code, but is there a way to perform this sort of action?

I think its picsrc='url'
instead of "url"

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var image = new Image();
image.src = 'http://www.bettiepage.com/images/photos/bikini/bikini1.jpg';
alert (image.height + ' x ' + image.width);
// -->
</script>
