Is there a way of showing multiple numbers of the same image other than writing <img src = ""blahdeblah.gif""> numerous times?
In other words something like: < display""x5"" img src = ""blahdeblah.gif"">
to show the blahdeblah.gif 5 times

Thanks,

Easy.
To do it with a function:

Code:


Save this in "inc_func_common.asp":

Function M_Image(intQty,strMImage)
	For intMI=1 to intQty
		Response.Write	"<img src=""" & strImageURL & "&strMImage&"" />"
	Next
End Function

Call the function in your code like this:

M_Image(5,"blahdeblah.gif")

Otherwise, to do it on a single occasion:

Code:


For intMI=1 to 5
	Response.Write	"<img src=""" & strImageURL & "blahdeblah.gif"" />"
Next

I'm curious why you would want to do this.
I fight with my members that post long lines of smilies. I actually have my bad word filter set up to fight it.

Ditto. This sounds an awful lot like asking if I should hammer a nail with an old shoe or a glass bottle...

The reason I asked was a long standing member of our forums recently asked if he could have a different coloured set of stars under his name than the ones we were using for normal members. As this member has been good to us I decided it was a small request that I could/should honor and so coded it into topics.asp so that it looked up his member ID when posting and replying to topics and if it was such then to display five gold stars instead of the set blue ones.
The thought occured to me afterwards, hence my question, if it was possible to code for multiple instances of the same image rather than repeating the img src code five times

More from a curiosity perspective than a requirement

This can also be done using a single image, set it as the background to a div, set the background to repeat and set the div to the width you need to display x number of stars

Example

Well that actually makes sense.

Having just reread this and HuwR's reply I just realised that if I made the single image into a larger image of 5 stars and called it for example bladeblah5.gif, I'd only have to add the image code once anyway lol

What's that about thinking too deep

As long as the image is not animated, that would be the easiest solution.
