Question

I am trying to set size of an image in PHP but it’s not working..

echo "<img src=".$media."width=200 height=200";

$media is the src link. Without the width and height attributes, it works perfectly well. I think that 200 must be enclosed in double quotations but I am unable to do that. Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

Answer 1

width is currently concatenated with your file name. Use:

echo '<img src="'.$media.'" width="200" height="200" />';

The /> closing tag is necessary to correctly render your image element.
The quotes around tag names are recommended. Omitting these quotes will only cause issues when:

1. The attribute value contain spaces, or
2. You forgot to add a space after the attribute value
