Question

I would like to create a jpeg on the fly given some data from a database. The data is an array containing values which should be translated into a colour.

A asp.net mvc controller method should return a jpeg on the fly given one parameter.

This should be fairly straight forward. Could someone please point me to some existing code?

Thanks.

If you want this in pure mvc you can do this

Another way is to create a HttpHandler that does that for you

hope this helps
