Php and images

Sorry, let me clarify.

 

If i had it to where users could upload images to be used at another time. For instance, if i had them upload a logo to be used in a coupon template. How does php call that image to be used dynamically in different coupon templates? Hope that makes it a little more clear.

Got it.

 

When you upload the file, I would save the path to the file in the database. Then, when you want to use the image again, you pull the path from the database. Make sense?

 

For example, say the path to the file is "http://www.yourdomain.com/uploads/image.jpg" after you upload it. You would save that path into the database using a MySQL insert statement. When you want to display it, you would do something like this:

 

// get path from database using MySQL select, assign it to the $path variable

echo '<img src="'.$path.'" alt="alt attribute" />';

Thanks so much, I will definitely give that a try. Sounds like a great idea to me.
