Question

I need to obtain the final url for an image to set it as parameter to a JQuery Datepicker input. The way to declare the DatePicker is:

$("#myInput").datepicker({
    showOn: "button",
    buttonImage: "<url-for-the-image>",
    buttonImageOnly: true
});

I know in symfony the images are located (by default) in the /web/images directory, and this can be accessed with sfConfig::get('sf_web_dir').'/images'.

The probelm is that this function returns me something like /var/www/.../web/images instead of http://-IP-ADDRESS-/.../web/images.

How can i do it to find the correct url for an image in my image directory? Thank you very much!

OK, solved! just using this Symfony function: image_path('my-image.png'); This returns the path to the image!
