table output

[7724]

Hi all,

Very Quick one. In page I have a picture and picture caption echoed to my live site:

<TABLE BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="1" CELLPADDING="1" VSPACE="6" HSPACE="6" BGCOLOR="#CCCCCC" HEIGHT="36"><TR BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF"><TD HEIGHT="12"><?php
$story_id = (int)$_GET['story_id'];
$SQL = "select thumb_name from cms_pictures where story_id = $story_id"; 
$result = mysql_query($SQL) OR die(mysql_error()); 
$row = mysql_fetch_row($result);  

echo '<img src="../../pictures/big/'. $row[0] .'">';
?> </TD></TR><TR BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" ALIGN="CENTER"><TD><?php
$story_id = (int)$_GET['story_id'];
$SQL = "select pic_caption from cms_pictures where story_id = $story_id"; 
$result = mysql_query($SQL) OR die(mysql_error()); 
$row = mysql_fetch_row($result);  

echo "$pic_caption $row[0]";  

?></TD></TR></TABLE> 

Now this is fine, but the second query outputs the text and stretches the text box past the image, so it looks awkward like so:

Any suggestions please?

Thanks

Chris

Well this is actually an HTML question but you could either center the PIC or possibly add width and height attributes to the img tag.
center the image with

echo '<center><img src="../../pictures/big/'. $row[0] .'"></center>';

Thanks, but that just centres the image. Had a think and if I just give my actual table a set width then it solves the problem.

Many Thanks anyway!
