link in a textbox

[edevil]

Look at the code snipet below:

echo " HTML: <img src=".$thefile." /> ";

The $thefile is a link to a image. I want it to show it like this:
<img src="/link/to/image.jpg" />

but the code is showing the image instead. so i've decided to paste the link in a textbox.

echo "<input size='54' name='the file'>";

i just want to paste the link to the image inside that textbox. Its pretty simple but i cant do it 😛

I hope you've got it.

Thanks in advance.
