Embed images in your application

[marcus@localhorst]

Hi,
I stumbled again about this nice thing (I found that years ago). It's not new and more or less useful, but if you ever look for a smart way to write single file applications without any additional files in directory structure (mostly images), then this could be useful for you:

it makes mostly sense to embed icons in your application, let's say a simple filebrowser/manager in php or what ever.

greetings

edit: this works just in firefox and opera
