Hi all

If I use this code

?>
<td align="left\"><font color="black\" face="arial\" size="-1"> <a href=http://<? $row["map"] ?>> <?= $row["map"] ?>
</a></td>
<?

How can I have on the page a graphc file which the user can click on and habe that graphic file pick up the URL in the above code.

I should know how to do this but I don't

Any help

Thanks in advance

Using HTML, you would do:

?> 
<td align="left">
<font color="black" face="arial" size="-1"> 
<a href="http:<? echo $row["map"]; ?>">
<img src="<? echo $row["map"]; ?>">
</a>
</td> 
<? 

Although you may have to think about the $row[map], as currently, you are trying to output the link address, and image address from the same field in your database.

didn't get the why for the font element, a click opening a image that's already on a page sounds odd... but :

?> 
<td align="left">
  <a href="http://<?= $row["map"]?>">
    <img src="<?= $row["map"]?>" border="0">
  </a>
</td> 
<?

Font element only in cos i copied his code.

Was trying to make the point that he can use PHP to echo out the image into the <img> tag in his HTML, and how he can use the image as his link.
