Hi,

Several times I thought I found the answer to this question in the forum, but each time the problem was different than the one below:

html_image "file" parameter is expecting a system filepath relative to basedir (doc_root), not a URL.

Hi mohrt,

Thanks for the reply. Any ideas for a work around (aside from changing the $Img_Dir value of course)?

Actually I stand corrected, getimagesize() supports URL paths since PHP 4.0.5. So, html_image should be able to take a URL just fine.

My guess is that:

http://alpha/skin/images/logo.gif

Is not working because:

1) "alpha" is not a fully qualified hostname.
2) the image does not exist or isn't readable
3) php_ini: allow_url_fopen is false

Get this working first before messing with smarty and html_image:

[php:1:b87146137f]$logo = file_get_contents('http://alpha/skin/images/logo.gif');[/php:1:b87146137f]

mohrt,

Looks like it's #1. I can grab the image of a site with a "qualified" domain name.

We work on development servers here and have our hosts file changed, obviously PHP is aware of this set up. Do you know if there's any way to change that (like in the php.ini file or something)?
