what is usr/local? is it ur home directory?
i dont get ur question, u have the path of the file, why dont u use <img> tag?

/usr/local is the base directory/installation path of my php 4.3.0 and apache 2.0.40 on my redhat7.3 machine.

<img> tag? where can i find a reference for these.., i'm sorry, i'm new to html,php and linux..

 

[vbkris]

the html tag for displaying an image is the img tag

<img source=&quot;path&quot;></img>

if u wan to give the picture as a link do this

<a href=&quot;page.html&quot;><img source=&quot;path&quot;></img></a>

The attribute is [tt]src[/tt], short for source. So the tag would be [tt]<img src=&quot;/path/to/image&quot; alt=&quot;Some text&quot; />[/tt]. Also note that there is a HTML forum here on Tek-Tips. //Daniel
