asp_web_howto thread: Displaying an image from table


Message #1 by "Kennan Ingalsbe" <kingals@k...> on Wed, 26 Sep 2001 19:42:12
Hello,

  I have a table that contains the path of an image that I want displayed 

when a certain value is picked from a select box.  For instance, I want to 

display the image of a Penguin when "Penguin" is selected from my select 

box.  Can I store the source path of the image on my table, and then 

retrieve it when a certain value is selected, and display that image on my 

page?  And how would I execute this from my select box?

         Any ideas would be great.

          KJI

Ok...

Yes you can store the path to your image in a table.

Yes you can retrieve that path from the table

Yes you can display that Image after getting the path.

You will have to display the image in a picture box.



select pathname from tableImages where imagename = 'Penguin'

image1.name = "Penguin"

image1.path(?I think?) = recordset("pathname")



now, to do the select box, you can add this action into the On_Click event

of your list box.



Mike
