Hi,

 

I wanted to know how to php include a .gif image, when i do it like this

<?php include (images/index_01.gif); ?>

i get this error;

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '/' in /home/price7/public_html/index.php on line 46

add single (or double) quotes to the location so

 

<?php include ('images/index_01.gif'); ?>

 

See if that works.

Your parse error is because you need some quotes around the path/file to make it a string that the include() function expects.

 

However, you cannot include an image on a web page. You can only put images on a web page using an <img src="url_of_the_image" alt=""> tag. Read this - http://w3schools.com/html/html_images.asp

I was told on another forum that i could use a cache (php include) to stop my sliced images from photoshop from loading aafter every click

 

???

 

Thanks
