Some one please help me with this, this one is difficult to solve. I am trying to understand how chrome does it, but their context menu code is massive and complicated, especial for something simple like a context menu.

You can use CefURLRequest (or CefWebURLRequest depending on your CEF version) to download the image using the URL.

Marshall,
2 questions...
1. From the documentation i understand that CefURLRequest is "context-less", so how will CEF handle images in secured sites that require cookies? (facebook for example)
2. Doesn't CEF already have the image "in hand"? it's displayed on the screen... why download it again?

Thanks alot,
Amit

If you call CefRequest::SetFlags(UR_FLAG_ALLOW_CACHED_CREDENTIALS) before calling CefURLRequest::Create it will use cookies from the global cookie store.

There is no API currently for retrieving data from the cache. Also, not all images are cached (it depends on response headers, etc).
