checkmodem12 Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 what i'm trying to do is display an item description with corresponding picture. right now i just have this code which displays all the items in "crafts" field. how would i display the picture? would i need to put the pictures in a separate database then call it or some say to just put a link to the picture but i imagine this being difficult if the description loops. please help. <?$username="";$password="";$database="";mysql_connect(localhost,$username,$password);@mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database");$query="SELECT * FROM table WHERE classification='crafts'";$result=mysql_query($query);$num=mysql_numrows($result);mysql_close();$i=0;while ($i < $num) {$id=mysql_result($result,$i,"id");$description=mysql_result($result,$i,"description");$price=mysql_result($result,$i,"price");$classification=mysql_result($result,$i,"classification");?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/14249-need-to-display-item-description-with-picture/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prismatic Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 In your table "table" create a field named "imageurl", this will contain the URL to the picture you wish to display, example: http://www.yoursite.com/images/image.jpgThis should get you going in the right direction...[code]<?php$username="";$password="";$database="";$link = @mysql_connect("localhost", $username, $password); if (!$link){ die( "Unable to connect to MySQL Server!");}$db_selected = mysql_select_db($database, $link);if (!$db_selected){ die( "Unable to select database");}$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE classification = 'crafts'");while($ResultArr = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ $id = $ResultArr['id']; $description = $ResultArr['description']; $price = $ResultArr['price']; $classification = $ResultArr['classification']; $imageurl = $ResultArr['imageurl']; echo "<center><img src='". $imageurl ."' alt='". $description ."'><br>". $description ."<br>Price: ". $price ."</center><hr>";}mysql_close();?>[/code] Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/14249-need-to-display-item-description-with-picture/#findComment-55960 Share on other sites More sharing options...
