Youre asking the wrong question. PHP doesnt display anything in the
browser... the browser does that job. What you can do is one of the
following:
1. Output content headers and fpassthru the file (see fpassthru in the
manual for more details)2. Output the HTML with a <IMG /> tag with the SRC attribute pointing
to
the image as usual.
Others on this list will be able to provide good tutorial web pages which
would do the job explaining PHP's role in displaying images in the web
browser much better than I can.
