Using images with database apps

[Anon]

Hi -

I have set up a database for my users to select a series of options which is then automatically displayed and reflects their choices for other users to see.

However instead of having the site write 'YES' or 'NO' i would prefer to use say gif ticks or crosses etc. I have tried imagegifcreate but I get "not available in this build".

Can someone guide me through what I need to do!?

Thanks

Hi,

It would be easier to just upload an image of the tick and cross, then all you need to do is add the image tag in HTML as you would add a normal image.

Im assuming that this data is stored in a database and is a tick when $user_choice = 1 and a cross when $user_choice = 0.

($user_choice is the selected option of the user which is retrived from the database.

If this is the case then try this code..

<?php
If ($user_choice == '1')
{
?>
<IMG SRC="tick.gif">
<?php
}
else
{
?>
<IMG SRC="cross.gif">
<?php } ?>

You will have to make sure that tick.gif and cross.gif are uploaded to you site and also the paths are correct.
