The switch statement is pretty much the same throughout many
programming languages.

For:
print 'Image 1';
Carl probably should have put the html code there to display
a sample image. For example:
print '<img src="../images/imagename.jpg" border="0" height="100" width="100" />';
You could employ the echo statement as well instead of print.
echo '<img src="../images/imagename.jpg" border="0" height="100" width="100" />';
They both output your html code and such to the client's
browser.

http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_ref_string.asp
http://www.w3schools.com/php/func_string_echo.asp
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.print.php
The echo statement doesn't return a value and so is slightly
faster, whereas print() always returns "1".
Hope that helps.
