I am loading records from mysql database to my site and i am trying to match an image on a web sever to each item but what i want to do is if no image show a default image i have tried many ways as follows but none work
****this shows me an image if one but blank if not*******************
<td class="<?php echo $style ?>"><a href=<?php echo "http://naturanauk.co.uk/photos/"?><?php echo str_replace("/","",htmlspecialchars($row["PROD/COL"])) ?><?php echo ".jpg"?>><img src = <?php echo "http://naturanauk.co.uk/photos/"?><?php echo str_replace("/","",htmlspecialchars($row["PROD/COL"])) ?><?php echo ".jpg"?> height="50", width="50", border=0></a></td>
******this completly messes up my website************************
if (file_exists(<?php echo "http://naturanauk.co.uk/photos/"?><?php echo str_replace("/","",htmlspecialchars($row["PROD/COL"])) ?><?php echo ".jpg"?>))
{
<td class="<?php echo $style ?>"><a href=<?php echo "http://naturanauk.co.uk/photos/"?><?php echo str_replace("/","",htmlspecialchars($row["PROD/COL"])) ?><?php echo ".jpg"?>><img src = <?php echo "http://naturanauk.co.uk/photos/"?><?php echo str_replace("/","",htmlspecialchars($row["PROD/COL"])) ?><?php echo ".jpg"?> height="50", width="50", border=0></a></td>
