Displaying a centered image without html

[Spyderman]

Hi all,

I'm looking for a way to display an image, centered, using only php. The reason it can't use html is the image I am displaying is a variable $path, and the image will display when I call a function. The code I have now is

<?
$path="imgs/image.jpg";
displayImage();
function displayImage()
{
echo"<img id="img_center" src=$path>";
}
?>

 

but when I am using the 'echo', I am unable to use the $path variable. Which is why I am trying to do it without using html. Thanks alot!

<?
$path="imgs/image.jpg";
displayImage();
function displayImage()
{
echo"<center><img id="img_center" src=".$path."></center>";
}
?>

 

Should work

Thanks for the response! Unfortunately that doesn't work =[.

 

When I do this, the .$path. doesn't register as a variable, but the path location itself.

echo'<center><img src=".$path."></center>';

 

Thank you so much for the help!

if what you are trying to do is get the <img> tag to be used for php display at a later date try enclosing the echo stuff in single quotes. That way the var wont extrapolate but will display literally.

echo"<center><img src=$path></center>"; everything is already a string no use breaking it up

Thanks for the help everyone! This is what ended up working for me

    $path="imgs/image.jpg";
    echo'<center><img src="'.$path.'"></center>';

as far as i know

 

echo "<img id=\"img_center\" src=\"$path\" />";

 

would also have worked
