totallytech Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Hey Guys, I'm building a site to view images on, basically the image detail is stored in a database, the site is then accessed and a standard select query is used. I then get the image name etc pulled from the database. Is there a way to save that image name into a variable and get it to display on a form that is run from a function - completely independent to my viewing code... Some sort of global variable, but that could change each time I viewed a different photo - and wouldn't have any effect on anyone else browsing the site etc - so the correct image name would always be passed?

requinix Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 The answer is yes, but whether you should actually do that depends on what you're trying to describe. You say "viewing code", which leads me to believe you are talking about using this global variable thing in multiple places in code that all run during the same page request. That last part is what matters most. Maybe it'll be easier to understand your intentions if you post your code? Everything between the "viewing code" and the place where you would want to use this variable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
