NYCPHP Meetup

[Michael J Lee]

Hey All,
I've got a mySQL/php question here . .

I want to create a photo album using a php script that will call a sql query
to help populate the page now the first question is:

What would be the best way to store the images in the database?  Links to
the images?  Can you store the actual images? (I'm guessing that would not
be recommended . . )

I figure I would run a for loop that runs the total number of items returned
and echo the path into the img tag.
ie: <img src=<?php echo 'results of query function' ?> border=0> or
something to this effect.

Anyone do anything like this?  Suggestions?

Thanks!

Mike Lee

Good luck, buddy.
Perhaps if you told us what exactly this ColdFusion code did, some of us (in
our free time) could help you write some code... I'm always willing to help
in my spare time.
Let me know,
