[Resolved] Using PHP with java and DHTML

Sayian

Ok , I need someone who is good with not only php , but javascript and DHTML as well.

Here's what im trying to do ...

I want to open images in a new layer ( DHTML Window) such as this site ..

www.cpixel.com , Click on any profile on the right hand side , then click on a thumbnailed image .. you see how that opens? Ok. I have the DHTML code to do that .. It's located at
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex4/thumbnail.htm

Now .. The code that i currently use in my php script to display images is.

$img_src  = $base_url."/image.php?id=" . $a_row["user_id"] . "&p=" . $a_row['total_file_count'];
            $imgsrc = "id=" . $a_row["user_id"] . "&p=" . $a_row['total_file_count'];
            $delete_url = $base_url . "/delete_image.php?id=" . $a_row['total_file_count'] . "&user=" . $a_row['user_id'];

        $return .= "<td width=\"33%\" align=\"center\"><a href=\"viewimage.php?$imgsrc\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"$img_src\" width=100 height=100 border=0 alt=\".: $array[username] :.\" title=\".: $array[username] :.\"></a>";

Please note.. the code that i just pasted MUST remain $return = , Please dont tell me to echo out the statement , its like this for a reason.

What this code does is build a table , Resize the Images to 100 x 100 (thumbnails) then onclick <a href=\"viewimage.php?$imgsrc\" target=\"_blank\">

It loads the image in a new browser window .. but i want it to load in my DHTML popup window ..

ive tried for days to code this differently and everything i do fails.

Could someone Please Help me?

Woops... just saw what I didn't before!!

Anyway, you have to add an onClick to the <a> tag so that it looks like:

$return .= "<td width=\"33%\" align=\"center\">
<a href=\"viewimage.php?$imgsrc\" onClick=\"return enlarge('viewimage.php?".$imgsrc."', event)\"><img src=\"$img_src\" width=100 height=100 border=0 alt=\".: $array[username] :.\" title=\".: $array[username] :.\">
</a>";

Is the javascript code on DynamicDrive.com included in the head of your page? If not, it won't work.

Yes it's included at the head of my document .. let me ask you somthing .. , ok the way the system is currently setup , when a user clicks a image it opens it in a new browser window right .. and that browser window is pulling the image from image1.php .. image1.php is the image file used to grab the image off the server and deliver it to a page.

Shouldnt i change the file viewimage.php to somthing like a javascript popup? for this to work .. i dont have any clue how to do that , but it just seems more realistic ..

for a javapopup, do this in the body:

<script type="text/javascript">

function openpopup(popurl){
var winpops=window.open(popurl,"","width=,height=,toolbar,location,status,scrollbars,menubar,resizable")
}
</script>

<a href="javascript:openpopup('http://www.site.com/page.php?x=home')">Click here</a>

Look, you have to stick with what you want. Do you want the DHTML working or not? If not, then do what sys said; otherwise, read my posts. viewimage.php should either create the image or display it to the browser. It shouldn't do anything else. I.e. it should have the line:
header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
in it, and that should be the first output of it, and then it sends the image to it.

It's as easy as that.

Ok whats easy to you , is hard to me. Im new to php , and i dont understand what your telling me. Ive tried to put the exact code that youve given me , it's not working for me. Ive even spent hours trying to figure it out myself , and i cant ..

Sayian

Ok , i finally got this to work , the box pops up .. but the image wont show.

The DHTML Script is working , but it just has a red x for where the images are supposed to be showed .. why is this?

sys4dm1n

it means that the image's path you provided (/img/image.gif) isnt where you say it is...so it cannot display it. make sure you have the correct path in your code.
