[_] export to jpg at runtime

hi 
i looked in to this a while ago without much joy im afraid
the three options i was left with were 

1 go the get pixel route and have a wapping set of variables to send to php (to actually write the jpg||png||gif)
[sounds like you dont fancy this much either]
2 put the swf in a .dcr(director) shell and let director do the image writing
3 (and this was pretty specific to the project i had in hand)if flash is creating the image file in the first place then  and you want to view the images at a later date using flash, store the info you would need to recreate that image and access the info again later when you need to recreate the image

hope one of these solutions is useful to you or you find a better one
cheers

    Is it possible to export a .swf to a .jpg || .png || .gif at run time?

    I've been looking for a while an' can only find a getPixel() solution.

    Merci,
