Re: linking to an image with document_root

Hi,

You cannot use document_root to get the paths for images. You can write a
function to get the images url in your application.

function imageServer()
{
      return "/images/";
}

An image source is the URL to that image.

The server document root is the local location of that file (eg
/home/user/file.gif) - which is never going to work as a URL.
