getExpression

Returns the expression information - the personalized icons, sounds, and background images - for an AIM user. This routine supports two extra format parameters, both of which require the type= parameter to be set:

  • native - Return the binary data directly. For example with buddy icons can be used to embedded the image using a img tag. The type parameter is required.
  • redirect - Similiar to native, except use a redirect to fetch the binary data. This will eventually allow the browser to cache better. The type parameter is required.
