Retrieve more than one image on a page along with other contents using http handler (ashx)

Hi everyone,

Let me explain the scenario.

I have to display a page which will show user's personal information along with his profile picture and signature (after log-in).
The profile picture and signature are stored in database.
I am using 2 Image control on the web page. I am retrieving the image using http handler.

<asp:Image ID="imgUserImage" runat="server" AlternateText="User Photo" Height="130px" Width="150px" />
<br /> <asp:Image ID="imgUserSign" runat="server" AlternateText="User Signature"
Height="40px" Width="150px" />

Now the user id will be obtained at runtime. So I am assigning the url to the image at runtime like this:

//show user image
imgUserImage.ImageUrl = "showUserImage.ashx?imgtype=photo&id=" + empid;
//show user signature
imgUserImage.ImageUrl = "showUserImage.ashx?imgtype=sig&id=" + empid;

Based on the imgtype querystring, the handler is processing the request and will display corresponding image.

Now the problem is, the ProcessRequest method is called only once (after Page_Load of aspx) which I think is correct.
Is there a way I can show both the images on the page using the handler.
I couldn't find a solution on the web. :(

Thanks!
