Sorry for the newbie question. I am an artist and entering my pieces into a database....basically all that will be displaying will be Title: Medium: Date Created: and an image (.gif, .jpg, .swf) I want to know what is the best way to call a specific image type.??? Should I give each image file extension a column |.gif | .jpg | .swf | and set that all these columns to only display when asked?? So for an example case. I have a piece of artwork Called Cheetah. Title: Cheetah Medium: Water Color Date Created: 1998 cheetah.jpg How do I set up my table so when I add this piece to my databse I can select .jpeg extension to true.....so to speak, and leave gif and swf false. My image source might be (i know the coding will be wrong) <img src="images/?title? . ?ext?"> (cheetah.jpg). Cheers
