i have a web site which has difference languages and many variabls and image locations are codes with location <?php echo $lang?>/image.gif/
As dreamweaver cannot echo the value of $lang it simply can't show the image. Is there any way to show the image? Thanks.

If you have a testing server setup you could use the "Live Data View".

<?php echo "<img src='/image_path/image.gif' />";

should work.?

Dreamweaver is used to design PHP, not run it.

Peace,

That is incorrect, it can output echo's and includes and it can display dbase/server data in Live Mode, as mentioned above.

Dreamweaver will only run PHP in Live Mode. Othewise, the code above will simply show a ? mark in Design View.

Not completely true of newer versions. DW will show includes and simple functions in preview. It won't run complicated PHP or connect to a DB unless in live mode.

You are completely right. Perhaps I should have stated my advice more clearly. It will show include() and such in Design View regardless of Live Mode. Complex stuff involving fetching/displaying data (like SQL queries) only works in Live Mode :)
