Hello again Sashi The answer provided by Mushin won't work because images are not acessible from the outside. You can't have <img src="C:\Users\Sashikanth\Desktop\Bldgs_lots\Burruss.jpg" ...> because that's not a valid URL... You can have something like <img src="Bldgs_lots/Burruss.jpg" ...> which when interpreted by the browser will become something like http://yoursite/Bldgs_lots/Burruss.jpg Now, for this to happen you need to have Bldgs_lots as a subfolder or alias for your site. Otherwise, there is the way I mentioned in the first place, involving a php script just to get the image, which has to be called from within your script, passing it the info from the database echo '<img src="picture.php?&img=' . $location . '" border="1" height="150" width="200" alt="' . $build . '">'; Now, I don't recommend passing local paths like this to scripts ... Hope this helps C ya JP
