        echo "<a href='#' class='thumb'><img class='thumb-img' value = ".$row->aid." onclick='getVote(".$row->aid.", \"".$row->atitle."\")' src='images/roadies/th".$row->aid.".jpg' /> </a>";
    echo "<input  type = hidden name = aid id = rd".$row->aid." value = ".$row->aid.">".$row->atitle."</input>";
