I tried the full path like: if (file_exists('/srv/www/xxxx/dddd/htdocs/images/pic412.jpg')) { echo "<IMG SRC='images/pic412.jpg'>"; } else { echo "&nbsp;" // display space to make a table happy if picture is missing! } I also tried it with that line: if (file_exists('/images/pic412.jpg')) { or that line: if (file_exists('images/pic412.jpg')) { Basically I just want to avoid to show a "missing picture" ! If there is another solution for that problem I am happy too. bye Ronald
