Jefferis Peterson,

For this you should better not use relative link. Use the absolute path to store in your database.

It is ok, if you planned to have thumbnails folder under each and every other folders.

Once you retrieve the value from the SQL to recordset, use

if it is an image to be displayed on browser,
Response.write "<img src='" & rs.Fieldname & "'>"...............

if it is a URL to be displayed as a link
Response.write "<a href='" & rs.Fieldname & "'>" & rs.fieldname & "</a>"............

Cheers!!!

How do you code it so the image displays on the page rather than the url
text when the field is called from the database?
