[Resolved] Displaying images

[spanishsteps]

Hello everyone,

I read in some tutorials that the best way of storing the images would be in the file(directory) rather than in the database.So, I made a directory called images and i placed all the images there.Fine, now in a table where i've the image column, I provided the link - like: /images/mypic.jpeg

When i view my page, it neither display the image nor the ugly red cross mark insted i get the path which i've written there.

Did I miss anything??I've this code so far........

$sql="SELECT image,telephone,email,description FROM tbl_personals ORDER BY id"; 

$mysql_result=mysql_query($sql,$connection); 
$num_rows=mysql_num_rows($mysql_result); 

while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($mysql_result)) 
{ 
$var_3=$row["image"]; 
$var_4=$row["telephone"]; 
$var_5=$row["email"]; 
$var_6=$row["description"]; 
echo " 
<table border='1' width='100%' bordercolor='#000000' bgcolor='#C0C0C0'>
    <tr>
    <td width='50%'>$var_5</td>
    <td width='50%' rowspan='4'>$var_6</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width='50%'>$var_3</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width='50%'>$var_4</td>
  </tr>
  </table>";

Thanks once again.

You need an <img> tag:
<td width='50%'><img src="$var_3"></td>

Mord,
missed it, so simple.Thanks it works now.

Ok, i'm gonna shoot with one more question.I'm trying to show the telephone number from the table.When I move my mouse on the telephone number i can see the number appearing in the task bar at the bottom and when i click on it, i see page cant be found.
I would like to have a small window popping up if there is a telephone number in the table.
How can i do that one?

<tr>
    <td width='50%'><a href='".$row[telephone]."'>Telephone number</a></td>
  </tr>

Thanks once again
