If you were to "include" the special page, with parameters, then you'd
end up including the image. Aevar's extension sends a Location header
if it finds the image.
Slapping in
http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Filepath/Fitz_Roy_1.…
as the SRC attribute of an IMG tag gives that photo, for instance, so
usage would be quite flexible.
Just a brief note: Please *don't* use this method to include a lot of
image from Wikimedia wikis or the Commons. As it happens, Erik Moeller
and I have conversed a mite on the subject of something which *would*
allow any wiki, anywhere, to transparently use our images while
caching them locally. And in fact, I reckon this extension could be a
useful springboard for that, so I think I'll go email him now...

Thanks, this works. But, the problem is that I would
like to use a lot of
Images in another website.
From the database the only information I can get
is the name of the images:
For example:
2006_Olympics_Opening_Ceremony.jpg
Now I would like to know the directory information of the images. In this
case: 5/5a.

For example. This is the Image:

I only have this information:
Image:2006_Olympics_Opening_Ceremony.jpg
How can I get the directory structure: 5/5a?
