Solution Barand Posted February 9, 2015 Solution Share Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) This function $zodiacPictures($imgCounter) You need [..] for array indexes. (..) is for functions [edit] Using foreach() would be easier foreach ($zodiacPictures as $src){ echo '<img src="' . $src . '" />'; } and there are no </img> tags Edited February 9, 2015 by Barand 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberRobot Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Try changing this echo '<img src="' . $zodiacPictures($imgCounter) . '"></img>'; To this echo '<img src="' . $zodiacPictures[$imgCounter] . '"></img>'; Note the square brackets around $imgCounter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhmyers82 Posted February 9, 2015 Author Share Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) Thank you, PHP is making me want to throw my computer out the window... Its for homework so it has to be a "for". When Im done with this I get to change it to a "while". Im so excited Edited February 9, 2015 by dhmyers82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
