Hi all, I am new to web programming. I have code to add pictures to a MYSQL database. Now I can't seem to figure out how to get them back out ! so we can see them. The MySQL doesn't seem to be a problem (yet), also I'm trying to learn PHP. What I usually do is to load the images in a folder "img" and then the name of the pic (i.e. "myphoto.jpg") in the database, so i retrieve the name of the pic with: Code: <?php $connex = MySQL_connect(server,login,password); $sql_query = "select picname from photos where..."; $result = MySQL_query($sql_query,$connex); $row = MySQL_fetch_array($result); ?> and then: Code: echo "<img src=".$row['photoFileName']." alt='photo'>"; but I can't see the photo Any pointers or code samples will be greatly appreciated... --------------------------------- Bored stiff?
