Ok, I don't think I was clear on my intensions. I want the variable in an if statement to be set as an image rather than text. If I use echo or print, I get text back. I want to have the image display. Here is what I have so far: <?PHP $day = date("D"); if($day == "Mon") { echo 'images/monday.png'; } elseif ($day == 'Tue') { echo 'images/tuesday.png'; } elseif ($day == 'Wed') { echo 'images/wednesday.png'; } elseif ($day == 'Thu') { print 'images/thursday.png'; } elseif ($day == 'Fri') { echo 'images/friday.png'; } elseif ($day == 'Sat') { echo 'images/saturday.png'; } elseif ($day == 'Sun') { echo 'images/sunday.png'; } ?> > From: Maxim Maletsky <maxim.maletsky@japaninc.net> > Date: Wed, 15 Nov 2000 14:54:36 +0900 > To: > "'Lawrence.Sheed@dfait-maeci.gc.ca'"<Lawrence.Sheed@dfait-maeci.gc.ca>, > mitull01@willy.wsc.edu, php-general@lists.php.net > Subject: RE: [PHP] If statements and images > > ooppsss.. big ignorance from my side ... > > OK, I won't turn itt into a new crazy thread ...
