| In latest Konqueror and FF2.0 works this::
|
| <html>
| <body>
| <p>
| <object type="image/jpeg"
data="data:image/jpeg;base64, ... base64 data
..."></object>
| </p>
| </body>
| </html>

with IM

Base 64 encoding is NOTHING to do with ImageMagick.
All it is, is a way to encode binary files using 64 ascii
characters in
a completely reversable way and which completely ignores
whitespace. It
is often used as part of MIME mail encodeing, as well as the
HTML and
HTTP protocols.
It is also very closely related to the even older
uuencode/uudecode
functions.
The old metamail program has options to encode/decode this
format.
It has been incorperated into the perl module MIME::Base64.
You can use
that module to encode your JPG file into base64 data.
Remember
white-space is ignored by this format, making it easier to
handle in
text editors.
