<?php
   echo '<img src="URL">';
?>

If u told what u want to do then u could get some more help. A pretty simple example using the GD library:

 

$imagePath = 'myimage.jpg';
$img = imagecreatefromjpeg(); //create the image resource from the file
header('Content-type: image/jpeg'); //set the header so it outputs the image
imagejpeg($img); //output the image

 

It actually does nothing, just gets an existing image and outputs it to the browser. Look for GD at the php manual and you'll find a lot u can do with images.

Hi, I have a row of pictures (emoticons) at the top of the web page. And I want to output a story from my sql database underneath these pictures. Then I would like another row of the same pictures followed by another story from the database. Then I would like to continue repeating this sequence until all of the stories from the database are on this web page. How can I do this using php codes? I would be grateful for any help. Thank you.

$connect = mysql_connect('hostname', 'username', 'password');
mysql_select_db('myDB');
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM stories");
while($values = mysql_fetch_array($query)){
      echo "<img src=\"emoticons.jpg\" /><br />";
      echo $values['story'];
      echo "<br /><br />";
}
mysql_close($connect);

 

If u know some simple database handling u shouldnt have problems with what u want.

Hi GuiltyGear, thank you for your reply. However, you showed me how to output one pictures, but how would I output several pictures in a row? Thank you.

In the same way

 

echo "<img src=\"emoticon1.jpg\" /><img src=\"emoticon2.jpg\" /><br />";

Thank you very much. I will try it now.  :)

Nah the above code will output images below each other. U can use an html table for simply hanging this out:

 

echo "<table>
 <tr>
   <td><img scr=\"emoticon1.jpg\" /></td>
   <td><img scr=\"emoticon2.jpg\" /></td>
   <td><img scr=\"emoticon3.jpg\" /></td>
 </tr>
</table>";
