Can someone help with how to get image

from a database into a display page using Dreamweaver?
I have a page with a recordset and a database with text and images. The image field only has a link to the folder and image as in images/image1.jpg including size.
The thumbnail I want to display on a master display page is in the database using varchar and with a link as images/image1.jpg
When someone wants to view the master page they click on a link and everything that has been input shows from the database. At least everything but the image.  Right now it just shows images/image1.jpg
I don't know how to call the images from the database.
Thanks for the help and any information.

Although it's not 'illegal' to put images or image thumbs in a database, it is strongly recommended NOT to store images/thumbs in a DB because it can seriously drag down the performance of the DB.
If you know how to call an image with information from your DB, you can do it with the thumbnaail image as well. The process is identical.
If you don't already have it, buy David Powers' book, 'PHP Solutions' as soon as you can. David's book walks you through basics of php and MySQL, the end result being a dynamic photo gallery. He cautions against storing anything in a DB that is not text or numbers, and it makes sense. VARCHAR isn't the correct column type, you would actually want one of the BLOB types. However, as David says in his book:
"Storing binary data, such as images, isn't a good idea. It bloats your database, and you can't display images directly from a database. However, the following column types are designed for binary data:
TINYBLOB:up to 255 bytes
BLOB: up to 64KB
MEDIUMBLOB: Up to 16MB
LONGBLOB: Up to 4GB"
I know what you are wantimg to do, because I am also developing an online gallery, so I feel your pain with a hitch such as this. The difference is, although I use Dreamweaver, I hand code everything. I use DW for more basic functions such as previewing and whatnot. With a little more info from you, I might be able to help, specifically some code, or a link to the gallery if it is on a remote server.
Be happy to help you any way I can.
Sincerely,
wordman

  • Can anyone help with how to get Xcode 4.3 to work in Dreamweaver 5.5

    Since the new version of xocde did away with the /Developr folder, xcode through Dreamweaver no longer works.  Does anyone have a solution?  Even if it's just how to open up xcode as a standalone app and get the Dreamweaver project in there.
    I just want to use xcode for the emulator portion of it.

    Marco,
    Here are some suggestions:
    1) Check the manual the Keithley manual to see how to configure the RS-232.   
        On some models you need set Factory defaults to USER and turn on the RS-232.   
        Also there may be a setting for SCPI which you want on (probably on by default).
    2) On your PC - open Device Manager. See if a COM port exists and is functional.
         You must get this working before continuing.
          You can set the COM port parameters by right clicking and selecting Properties.  
         (On some PCs the onboard ports can be disabled in the BIOS)
    3) If step two was OK, open MAX (Measurement and Automation eXplorer).      
        On the left side, click on Devices and Hardware.   
        Click on Serial and Parallel.   
        Go to the COM port you found in Device Manager.   
        Open a VISA Test Panel.
        Now I don't have one I can look at right now, so this is general idea:
       Configure the COM port to match the Keithley settings (should be OK if step 2 worked)  
       Go to the (I think) Input Output tab (you want to send a command)   
       The command string input should already have a *IDN? entered, if not, type it in.   
       Click on the Query button to send the command and check the response.  
       If you get an ID string back (Company name, Model, FW Version ...) then it works.   
       (Disregard an error saying it did not get enough charcters back.) 
    I hope this helps,
    steve

    You must put in the required information. If you do not have it, you must get it from the original owner of the phone. If you have forgotten your iCloud password, you can reset it at:
    https://iforgot.apple.com/password/verify/appleid
    There is no such thing as an activation "bypass". Activation Lock is a security feature. It wouldn't be that secure is you could bypass it, wouldn't it?

    Google show that you have to cut what you want to print and then paste it into a new app and print from that app.

  • I forgot the passcode to turn off restrictions. I have restored my iPad back to the factory settings and then synced it with the latest backup. The restrictions are still on and it is asking for the passcode. Can someone tell me how to get that off.

    I forgot the passcode to turn off restrictions. I have restored my iPad back to the factory settings and then synced it with the latest backup. The restrictions are still on and it is asking for the passcode. Can someone tell me how to get that off.

    The only option is to wipe the device clean and restore it to factory settings.  Hope you have a backup.
    Follow the instructions in  iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 to restore the device to factory settings.
    Once you have setup the device as a new one, you can then sync it back with your iTunes account and all your music, apps, contacts and any other content sync'ed with iTunes will be loaded on the device. Any content that is stored only on the device and not sync'ed with iTunes, like app logins or data, will be lost during this process. Be forewarned that this is a long process and can take a couple of hours or more to complete. This can be painful, but it is necessarily so to prevent users from working around the security settings. After the restore is complete, you can setup a new Restrictions passcode. Make a note of the passcode to avoid this situation in future.
     Cheers, Tom

  • Background image seems to be applied twice Can someone help with this CSS issue....

    Can someone help with this CSS issue....
    http://66.162.81.144/cms400min/default.aspx
    If you view the main page you will see that our background is
    2 shades of
    orange.. if you look at the line that divides those colors to
    the right and
    left you wil notice that the line is higher
    if you notice that it seems that there is another background
    on top of the
    first one..its the only thing i can think of..
    the only place where the image is being referenced is in this
    CSS style
    html, body
    min-height:100%;
    margin-bottom:1px;
    text-align:center;
    background-repeat:no-repeat;
    background-image:url(images/Background-Color2.jpg);
    background-color:#F74902;
    background-position:center;
    background-attachment:fixed;
    Is there something wrong with the above CSS that could or
    would cause this?
    is it because im applying the image to both the HTML and
    BODY?
    ASP, SQL2005, DW8 VBScript, Visual Studio 2005, Visual Studio
    2008

    You've attached the background to both the html and the body.
    I would do this:
    html, body {
    min-height:100%;
    margin-bottom:1px;
    body{
    text-align:center;
    background-repeat:no-repeat;
    background-image:url(images/Background-Color2.jpg);
    background-color:#F74902;
    background-position:center;
    background-attachment:fixed;
    Having said that the image doesn't look any higher on the
    right than the
    left to me in Firefox. Is it just an optical illusion?

    Hi candy, glad that you found that Shockwave Flash Object, it works with the Flash files and is very important
    The NPSWF files that you said are not there, those are for the Firefox browser or Chrome or some other browser. If you use Firefox and want the Flash Player for that, then close all of your browsers so you are only looking at your Desktop.
    Click on this Flash Player Installer for Firefox and SAVE it to your Desktop. Then RUN it from your Desktop, and after it is finished Installing, Restart your computer.
    Then Using Firefox go to the plug-ins and find a SWF vs 10.0.45.2 and make sure it is Enabled. This is just like the Shockwave Flash Object for Internet Explorer, but it is the one that works with Firefox.
    Let me know if that is what you wanted to do. If you don't use Firefox, but Chrome or another browser, then this will work for that one also.
    If you don't use another browser, then don't do any of this. I just thot maybe you did and that is why you were concerned that the NPSWF files were not there.
    Thanks,
    eidnolb

    1. yes
    2. yes
    3. No. DVD players can't play BluRay discs -- even if they are burned to a DVD disc.
    4. 1080p50 is a perfectly legitimate mode for shooting, particularly if you're shooting video with a lot of action, since it has double the actual frames of 1080i50. However, your output video may or may not actually have 50p frames (or even be 1920x1080), depending on what form of media you're publishing as. The BluRay files that Premiere Elements outputs, for instance are 50i.
