Thank you Jaques1 with your help my code is now HTML-escaped...thanks again!.

Jaques, thank you!. Sorry about my late reply. And thank you for your code. Now I have somewhere to start from. The array idea is cool. is 'html_escape' a PHP function? I couldn't find out much about it.

Thank you guys. Looking at your answers I realize that I did not ask my question right. I am sorry about that. My case is a bit different I think. I think it is because I am trying to create the link from inside PHP. My code is $result_final .= "<a href=viewgallery.php?cname=$cname&pcaption=" . $caption_array[$next] . "><img src='/photos/assets/left.png' alt='left navigation'></a>"; So based on your answers ... I changed the links like this $result_final .= "<a href=\"viewgallery.php?cname=$cname&pcaption=" . $caption_array[$next] . "\"><img src='/photos/assets/left.png' alt='left navigation'></a>"; It really works. Thank you for the suggestions. No more errors.... ( for now ) Just out of curiosity, is this a bad way of creating links? Is this a hideous code? Thank you for helping me,....

Hi Everyone.. I am not sure if I should post this question here. I would like to fix this problem using PHP rather than HTML. I am new to PHP. This code is part of an old PHP gallery file. I am trying to validate my site but the site's links have some characters that makes the link throw errors in W3C Validator. So I tried to replace the characters with HTML characters for example ? are now replaced by ? so my original link before using valid HTML characters looked like www.awebsite.com/viewgallery.php?cname=Colorado-Fall&pcaption=Lost-In-The-art And now it looks like this ... www.awebsite.com/viewgallery.php?cname=Colorado-Fall&pcaption=Lost-In-The-art But now W3C Validator shows an error like this The ? for replacing ? seems to be the problem.The & is highlighted in red. What am I doing wrong? How can I validate this link? I tried to use single or double quotes around HTML characters but that breaks my links and they won't work after that. Any tips will be appreciated...

Thank you Mac_gyver, I will be the only one uploading. But I will learn how to report back the errors... thanks again...

Hi everyone... I am a beginner. For a gallery I have, I am trying to upload thumbnails and sharpen them using image convolution. I am not sure I am doing the right thing or not.

Thank you everyone..this is now is SOLVED...

Hi everyone... I have a thumbnail page that is putting out tables that are skewed and I am not able to use CSS properly because of that. Is there anyways I can change the PHP output? This is my code... I think the highlighted area is responsible for my tables? But it is mismatching the <tr> and <td> tags.... I really want it to show a structured table.. like <table> <tr> <td> </td> </tr> </table> // Thumbnail Listing else if( $cid && empty( $pid ) ) { $number_of_thumbs_in_row = 4; // If current page number, use it // if not, set one! if(!isset($_GET['page'])){ $page = 1; } else { $page = $_GET['page']; } // Define the number of results per page $max_results = 400; // Figure out the limit for the query based // on the current page number. $from = (($page * $max_results) - $max_results); $result = mysql_query(" SELECT photo_id , photo_caption , photo_filename , photo_category FROM gallery_photos WHERE photo_category='".addslashes($cid)."' LIMIT $from, $max_results "); $nr = mysql_num_rows( $result ); if( empty( $nr ) ) { $result_final = "\t<tr><td>No Photos found</td></tr>\n"; } else { while( $row = mysql_fetch_array( $result ) ) { $result_array[]= "<a href='viewgallery.php?cid=$cid&pid=".$row[0]."'><img src='".$images_dir."/tb_".$row[2]."' border='0' alt='".$row[1]."' class='img'/></a>"; } $result = mysql_query( "SELECT category_name FROM gallery_category WHERE category_id='".addslashes($cid)."'" ); list($category_name) = mysql_fetch_array( $result ); mysql_free_result( $result ); $result_final = "<tr>\n\t<td> <span class='navlinks'><a href=viewgallery.php>Albums</a></span><font color=#ff0000> >&gt </font> <span class='navlinks'><a href=viewgallery.php?cid=$cid>$category_name</a></span><br><br/><br/><br/></td>\n</tr>\n"; foreach($result_array as $thumbnail_link) { if($counter == $number_of_thumbs_in_row) { $counter = 1; [b][size=24pt][size=18pt][b]$result_final .= "\n</tr>\n<tr>\n";[/b][/size][/size][/b] } else $counter++; [b][size=18pt] $result_final .= "\t<td>".$thumbnail_link."</td>\n";[/size][/b] } if($counter) { And my HTML output shows the tables like this... <body> <table width='100%' border='0' align='center' style='width: 80%;'> <tr> <td> <span class='navlinks'><a href=viewgallery.php>Albums</a></span><font color=#ff0000> >&gt </font> <span class='navlinks'><a href=viewgallery.php?cid=1>Abstract</a></span><br><br/><br/><br/></td> </tr> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=240'><img src='photos/tb_240.jpg' border='0' alt='End Of Day' class='img'/></a></td> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=239'><img src='photos/tb_239.jpg' border='0' alt='A Photographer's Dream' class='img'/></a></td> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=238'><img src='photos/tb_238.jpg' border='0' alt='Heaven's View' class='img'/></a></td> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=237'><img src='photos/tb_237.jpg' border='0' alt='Colorful World ' class='img'/></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=241'><img src='photos/tb_241.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=242'><img src='photos/tb_242.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=243'><img src='photos/tb_243.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=244'><img src='photos/tb_244.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=245'><img src='photos/tb_245.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=246'><img src='photos/tb_246.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=247'><img src='photos/tb_247.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=248'><img src='photos/tb_248.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=249'><img src='photos/tb_249.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=250'><img src='photos/tb_250.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=251'><img src='photos/tb_251.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=252'><img src='photos/tb_252.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=253'><img src='photos/tb_253.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=254'><img src='photos/tb_254.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> <td><a href='viewgallery.php?cid=1&pid=255'><img src='photos/tb_255.jpg' border='0' alt='' class='img'/></a></td> </table> </body>

Cristian... It is not a website yet... But when you get the page you will see that the thumbnails are spread apart and I cannot change the space in between or the space from left to right.... thank you Cristian... http://www.rajeevthomas.com/viewgallery.php

Hello everyone, I am new here and new to the coding world! I am trying to position my tables for my thumbnail gallery and it looks very different between IE7 and Firefox. Margins really get messed up. I am adding my codes below...how can I add some CSS to my tables other than width? Width seems to be the only thing that works. When I use width it increases margin between the thumbnails so much. And it all look so different between browsers...

Hi everyone.... I have a simple search.php And I want to include that in my html output page. I tried using <?php include ('search.php'); ?> Below is my HTML code which is part of a php file...what am I doing wrong here? // Final Output echo <<<__HTML_END <html> <head> <title>Photography</title> </head> <body> <table width='100%' border='0' align='center' style='width: 100%;'> $result_final <?php include("search.php");?> </table> </body> </html> __HTML_END;

Thank you for your help and time... you are so kind...

Joel24 thank you very much..! From what you said I am very interested to know how I can modify it to bring links to the photos or photos? Can you gimme some directions Joel?

Mmmm..hope I am saying this right... in the database there are only image information. And the php file pulls the image based on the information. When I look at my database I only see image info not direct links to them. I hope that answers to your question...how do we do the search you have mentioned?

Hi everyone... I just came across http://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorial/simple-sql-search . And it works for me. But I am making a gallery. If I have a database with images, keywords, captions, how do I create a search box to search for images? Are there any tutorials? is it possible to make changes to this tutorial to bring up just images? Any directions will help...

Thank you .....from every post here I walk away with something that I learned... thank you ...your reply makes sense... thanks again...

That's awesome!! That did it.. that worked... you just showed that I have a lot to learn about PHP! Thank you very very much ...
