images in mysql db and the red cross of ie

[kev wood]

i have a cms built where the user is able to upload an image to go with a story if they want to.  the problem that i am hving is that if they choose not to upload an image i get a red cross can stop this from happening

[AdRock]

I would do something like

 

<?php
   if(!empty($row['image'])) {
        echo '<img src="images/'.$row['image'].'">';
   }
?>

 

that way if the field hasn't got an image title in the field don't do the img src

 

btw are you uploading and putting the filename is the database cos this is how it would work?

[kev wood]

yes the upload works by storing the file on the server and witting the path to it to a db.

 

thank for the reply anyway.

[AdRock]

did you get it to work?

EDIT:

Sorry, missed the original question.

 

You can assign a "no-image" picture to it that is a valid image. That way something is displayed. 

 

EDIT: EDIT:

 

And if you tried AdRock's code, please explain why that did not solve the issue, if you would like further help.
