Hello. Again, I'm fairly new to php so please forgive me if my question is a very simple or obvious one.

I've just tried testing for the first time some php code that is pulling text out of a database to print it on the webpage. Some of this text includes HTML, specifically in this case an <img src="xxxxxxxxx"> statement. Much to my surprise, this is not working. Is there a problem with pulling HTML out of a database like this as the page is being written? There's no problem of course if my php code is writing the HTML to the page - in this case, the <img src="xxxxxx"> statement works fine and the image is displayed. Why is it a problem when my php script pulls the HTML code out of a database and writes it to the page from there??

It would appear that when my php script writes HTML to the page a process of some kind is executed to, in this case, get the image and put it on the page. Apparently this same process is NOT executed if the HTML is retrieved from a database and simply written to the page from there. Is this correct? And, if it is, can anyone suggest a workaround, another way to get done what I'm trying to do here?

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Rod Clay
