[RESOLVED] Image from database

SoulAssassin

I manage to upload the image to the directory, and have info in a database.
It shows when I don't have the sizes in the src, but as soon as I want to size the images, it doesn't show. It must be a syntax error.
Can anyone help please.

//Outputs the image and other data
echo "<img src=http://localhost/images/".$info['photo']."width=\"150\" height=\"100\"><br>";
echo "<b>Name:</b> ".$info['name'] . "<br> ";
echo "<b>Email:</b> ".$info['email'] . " <br>";
echo "<b>Phone:</b> ".$info['phone'] . " <hr>";

Thanks

Error in code posted here. Please look at my next post instead.

Thanks for your reply.

I've tried your method, and it still doesn't show my image.

I have now tried the syntax in a couple of other methods, but still nothing.

It show how ever when I don't put in the width and height.

Ops, wrong place for the first " sign. It should be like this:

echo "<img src=\"http://localhost/images/".$info['photo']."\" width=\"150\" height=\"100\" /><br />";

If it still does not work please post the source from the browser, there it might be possible to see things that is hard to spot here.

I have got it sorted out like this:


echo "<img height=150 width=200
src=http://localhost/images/".$info['photo']."><br>";

Thanks for your help

You really should use " or ' signs in the HTML to make it XML and XHTML compatible. It will solve you lots of job in the future.

SoulAssassin

I agree, it's funny that it work,
But in this case it seems like the only method that works.

Piranha

it defenetley is not. This would work, but use single quotes instead of double quotes in the HTML:

echo "<img height='150' width='200' src='http://localhost/images/".$info['photo']."' /><br />";

Or this will work with double quotes in the HTML but single quotes in PHP:

echo '<img height="150" width="200" src="http://localhost/images/'.$info['photo'].'" /><br />';

Notice that I added a / in the end of img and br tags as well, that is also for XML/XHTML.
