well thanks for the LARGE volume of replies lol, i figured out a way of doing it its kinda a work around but anyway all i did was whack a text area on the page and echo the code into that looks something like this:

FYI-

Code:

<?php

echo htmlentities('<img src="http://www.domain.com/image.jpg" />');

?>

?>

<img src="http://www.domain.com/image.jpg" />

That wouldn't do what he needs though conrad, that would still display the image. DJ_Jester's code works a treat.

Sorry for my ignorance, didn't read the thread properly, never make assumptions :|.

Well you could try putting it in a text box, and then onclick it highlights it all

Like this:

Code:

<?php

//* Image Uploader Stuff *//

$code = //* generate image url code (including tags if needed) *//

echo'<input type="text" name="code" size="60" onfocus="this.select()" value="' . $code  . '">';

?>

Thanks...

Lol, i saw that I was just offering, what seemed to me, a better solution.

Dj_Jestar · 17 Feb 2006 at 14:11

Your solution still requires the use of htmlentities()

Conrad11 · 17 Feb 2006 at 14:13

If what I have already done is concidered htmlentities(), then ok........otherwise....nope it doesn't, at least not for me it doesn't. Works perfectly as it is

Thanks...

[edit]

wait ok, i understnad what you mean.....it's just when i form $code I put it in the correct format there......sorry
