So is it best to store the entire url? or what you put above?

And do you think the loop in a loop getting the records into an array
and then outputting would work?
I select * from table then:
$num_results = mysql_num_rows($result);

for ($i=0; $i <$num_results; $i++)
{
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
echo $row["icon_url"];
rinse and repeat
}

What I want to do is:
for ($i=0; $i <$num_results; $i++)
{
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
echo $row["icon_url"];
echo my other fields
READ images/this_record_dir all file names
echo "img src = "images/this_record_dir/image1.jpg abd so on
}

Can this be done?Or when you send the command back to the server it
loses the original array? Or how to store the file names in the db
itself via updateb query or something?

And thx for letting me think
