not upon each visit to the page as is currently the case. This setting is specified in the Create
Dynamic Image dialog.
Click the New button on the Dynamic Images tab of the Resource Manager dialog to access the
Create Dynamic Image dialog. The options in this dialog allow you to name and define dynamic
image resources to add to your Project. The options in this dialog include:
 Name: Enter a name for the dynamic image resource.
 Connection: Use these options to specify the protocol and URL information.
To allow other users to access the files via FTP without password protection, leave
the User and Password fields blank. The user must type either "Anonymous" or
"Guest" to access the specified FTP site.
