Lots of ways, depending on your personal style. There's : <? if ($FileImageURL=='nopic.jpg') { ?> <img src="/home/warbirds/images/blank.gif" border="0"> <? } else { ?> <img src="/home/warbirds/images/jpg.gif" border="0"> <? } ?> or <? if ($FileImageURL=='nopic.jpg') $Image = "/home/warbirds/images/blank.gif"; else $Image = "/home/warbirds/images/jpg.gif"; ?> <img src="<?echo $Image?>" border="0"> or if($FileImageURL=='nopic.jpg') { echo '<img src="/home/warbirds/images/blank.gif" border="0">'; } else { echo '<img src="/home/warbirds/images/jpg.gif" border="0">'; } Plus, I'm sure, half a dozen variations on the theme. djo
