echo my images on my index page PHP - php

Question

i built a CMS and my image shows succesfully in the admin page(back-end) once i upload an image with the form but once on the main index page(front-end) it shows that "broke image link"
here is my function to post the uploaded image on my admin page:
function gettestimony() {
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM testimony") or die(mysql_error());
while($post = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)){
echo "<img src =\"" . $post['photo']."\">";
echo "<p>" . $post['imagename'] . "</p>";
echo "<br>";
echo "<p>" . $post['test'] . "</p>";
echo "<br>";
echo "<p>" . $post['author'] . "</p>";
echo "<br>";
echo "Delete";
echo "Edit";
echo "<br>";
}
}
and the directory is htdoc/blah/admin/include/functions.php
and the image is saved in htdoc/blah/admin/image/
for my main index, this is the function to post it:
function gettestimony() {
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM testimony") or die(mysql_error());
while($post = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)){
echo "<div class='column second'>";
echo "<p>" . $post['test'] . "</p>";
echo "<img src =\"" . $post['photo']."\">";
echo "</div>";
}
}
this is the code i use in both functions:
echo "<img src =\"" . $post['photo']."\">";
so like i said it works fine in admin page but my main page it doesn't....someone please help

Answer 1

Your image's path relative to the path of your function is irrelevant. As far as that function is concerned the path to the image is just a string.
You need to make sure the path to the image is correct relative to the HTML file that's viewing it. The easy way to make it work is to just use the full URL to the image:
www.something.com/admin/images/myimage.php
