lildog Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Could someone please post a brief explanation of . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'default/1.gif') . or point me in the right direction? This is from the default home page, I know it is displaying the number one graphic. Just wanted to know what it is doing. Thanks Todd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Could someone please post a brief explanation of . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'default/1.gif') . or point me in the right direction?... It takes the image path you give it (you can pass it other parameters too like a name etc) and generates HTML that is then embedded into the page output.... and hey-presto - you get a piccie !! Well, most of the time, anyway :-) Rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lildog Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 A name? why not just use a <img src="images/piccie.gif">? Is it a formatting thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgt Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 why not just use a <img src="images/piccie.gif">? Is it a formatting thing? If you look at the tep_image() function in includes/functions/html_output.php, you'll see it does a little more than just print out the img tag. It calculates image size if neccessary. You can also make global changes to img tags, like prefixing something to the title or alt parameters for all images.
