Dynamic img from database to Gallery

[blocktshirts]

Hi,
I'm new to the forum,
My site uploads images from my data base, http://www.blockdesigns.co.uk/Product.php?Sku=20075

I want to have two thumb nails under the main image and for it to swap like this: http://www.glow.co.uk/glow-t-shirt-glowstick.html

I know how to do this when I put the image address in but as it's a dynamic site I need to put a variable $image into the coding.

Any ideas please? whats the best way to do this at the moment I have done a Jquery that goes to an external php program but I then lose my GET variable.

Hope this is making sense as I seem to be waffling.

Not sure how much control you have over the code that retrieves the $image from your database.

but if you can change the code that retrieves the $image variable and instead of returning a single string your return an array with the two images you could have something like this:

Code: Select all

<img src="<?php echo $image[0] ?>" alt="" />
<img class="hidden" src="<?php echo $image[1] ?>" alt="" />


Then the two img tags above can be manipulated using jQuery.

In this case you have to make a thumbnail image which links to a full sized image. So that it will reduce you page loading time and loading of web page will be fast. For this we have to use PHP Dynamic thumbnail creation

Code: Select all

<img  src="http://www.webinfopedia.com/classes/thumbnail.php?file=http://www.webinfopedia.com/images/image-thumbnail-in-php.jpg&width=100&height=80&amp;maxw=102&amp;maxh=82">

I have explained this in one article here http://www.webinfopedia.com/create-thumbnail-image-dynamically-using-PHP.html
Thank You

cheers for that people,
I will have a play with this code today and let you know how I get on.

HI guys,
I have managed to sort it now.
I've probably not explained it very well but all I needed to do was carry the $image names across with the Jquery function.

cheers for the advice
