NewbieBryan Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Hi All, I am extremely new to php (and this forum) and am hoping to get some assistance. If this is not the right place to ask this question, if not; MODs please move the post to the correct section and apologies What I am trying to do: create a form that asks for an image name and then display that image on the next page. Sounded easy when I thought about it .... but, doesnt appear so. ??? All the images I want to display are in the folder where the code is. Code: Input page <html> <body> <form action="display.php" method="post"> Name: <input type="text" name="imagename" /> <input type="submit" /> </form> </body> </html> Code: display.php page <?php $Image = "$_POST[imagename]"; //to check my variable from the form echo $Image; ?> <html> <head> <title>Test image output page</title> <A href="test.php">Go back to submit again</A>. </head> <body> <img src="<$_POST["company"]>" width="200" height="200" </body> Now .... Clearly this doesn't work - I have triend putting the <imgscr> in the php section but that just bombs .... I have spent the last 5 hours on this (searching the net / trial and error / etc) and am going around in circles .... Any help would be appretiated.
