Probably another basic question but its been annoying me for a while now...
I have a php file which is included on a php web page to bring in dynamic content from my mysql database.
Everything works fine with this except when i try get pictures to work and here is the problem.
I am using the code:
echo "<img src=fishery_images/$region/$url/$url1.jpg'/>";
All of which has been selected from the correct table and so on. an example of what i want this to resolve to is below:
fishery_images/fife/goldenloch/goldenloch1.jpg
However because i have the code:
$url1.jpg
and $url1 is not defined as anything then it resolves as the following:
fishery_images/fife/goldenloch/.jpg
i can have anything from goldenloch1.jpg all the way to goldenloch10.jpg so need to be able to say which image should be used.
how is it i say $url1.jpg without meaning $url1?
Really hope this makes sense... and thanks in advance
echo "<img src=fishery_images/{$region}/{$url}/{$url}1.jpg'/>";
You'll want to use curly braces to wrap your variable:
echo "<img src=fishery_images/$region/$url/{$url}1.jpg'/>";
