Picture on background from internet?

[Letis]

Hi I have a background with external picture

$picture = GUICtrlCreatePic("C\:background.jpg",0,0,210,80)

Is there any way how to give into background the picture from internet?

example: something like this doesnt work why?

$picture = GUICtrlCreatePic("http://www.autoitscript.com/background.jpg",0,0,210,80)

Use Inetget to download the picture from the internet to the local machine and then use GUICtrlcreatePic with the local path... Check the documentation for more details...

As has sayed the Koshy John use the Inetget function:

$sURL = "http://www.autoitscript.com/images/autoit_6_240x100.jpg"
$sFilePic = @TempDir & "\pic.jpg"

If InetGet($sURL, $sFilePic, 1) = 0 Then Exit MsgBox(16, "Error", "Unable to download a file")

#include <GuiConstantsEx.au3>

$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 300, 200)

$cPic = GUICtrlCreatePic($sFilePic, 0, 0, 300, 200)
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_DISABLE)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

Do
Until GUIGetMsg() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
