@_SAVE

Syntax @_SAVEimages/myimage.gif@_PWpassword

Description This command directs PopChart Server to save the generated image to the specified location. The image will still be returned to the browser.

After an image has been saved, you can use @_LOAD command to load it. This keeps you from having to generate it again. Using @_SAVE and @_LOAD can greatly improve PopChart Server's performance if it is serving the same image over and over again.

For security reasons, you will need to specify a password using the @_PW command in order to use the @_SAVE command. Or, if you don't want to specify a password, you can set the - nopwforsave configuration setting.

Important: Make sure that your path.xml file gives PopChart Server permission to save to the location you specify. Otherwise, PopChart Server will not be able to save the file. By default, PopChart Server can only save to the images folder of its document root (see "Setting Path Permissions" in Chapter 3 of the PopChart Server User Guide).

The argument to this command is the file to which you want to save the image. The file name is relative to PopChart Server's document root directory. Alternatively, you can specify an absolute path.
