Vegar Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Well, I'm making a list of all my movies, using php. I've got some problems when it comes to displaying the cover, I've located the "bug", but i don't know what the problem is. This doesn't work. <img border="0" alt="300" title="300" src="http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV5BMTM1NDU1MTIxMF5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwOTcwMjI2MQ@@._V1._SX100_SY127_.jpg" /> This doesn't work. <img border="0" alt="300" title="300" src="http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV5BMTM1NDU1MTIxMF5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwOTcwMjI2MQ@@._V1._SX100_SY127_.jpg" /> This works: <img border="0" alt="300" title="300" src="http://i28.tinypic.com/219qww5.jpg" /> What's wrong? P.S. I'm all new to php/HTML, so all help appreciated.

haku Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 By 'doesn't work' do you mean the image doesn't display? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/165102-images-wont-show-and-i-have-no-clue-why/#findComment-870702 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vegar Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 I can't see any edit buttons here, so ill just make a new reply; This is just a test code, and how it looks in the browser. (the black around the images is not shown in the browser, ofc. ) Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/165102-images-wont-show-and-i-have-no-clue-why/#findComment-870897 Share on other sites More sharing options...
haku Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Got me. Both links look fine, and worked here when I tested them. Whatever the problem is, it's not the link syntax. Could be that they have hotlinking blocked, and you got blocked. But that's entirely speculation.

Vegar Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 Okay, thats too bad :/ Do you know of any image hosting service where i can upload multiple images at once, and accepts links? Then ill just make a list of all the image links and upload them there Or, any way i can download all the images myself (using php) and then upload them to a desired site which allows uploading multiple files. Also it's important that the images don't get deleted from the site Thanks in advance.

Also it's important that the images don't get deleted from the site Important or not, what you are proposing is most likely illegal, assuming the images aren't free for public use. You can use them off the owner's server, but to take them and put them on your server is theft.

haku Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 If by not for public use, you mean that it would be password protected or something, I believe it's still illegal, it's just a lot less likely that you would be found out. But if you want to find out, yes, I would recommend contacting the site directly and asking them.

Vegar Posted July 9, 2009 Author Share Posted July 9, 2009 By not public i mean that it's made for me + 3 mates. We use it to decide what movie to watch etc Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/165102-images-wont-show-and-i-have-no-clue-why/#findComment-872406 Share on other sites More sharing options...
haku Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 If it's on the internet, it's public. But if you password protect it so no one can get inside, the odds of anyone ever finding out are pretty low.
