title: can you set an image.src attribute to point to another image's bitmap data?
body: <p>In html is there a way to set an image's src directly from another image's data, rather than using the url (ie NOT <code>image1.src = image2.src</code>)</p>
  
  <p>cheers.</p>
  
  <p>UPDATE
  After looking at the restrictions of data uri s I have decided that its not the way forward.
  I will probably have to draw onto a canvas instead.</p>
  
  <p>thanks for all your help</p>
