I have a list of websites, and i would like to show a little image (icon) in a cell showing if they are blocked or not.
e.g. if the value is "url" then i want to show one image, if it says "dom" another image.
I have this working:

if ($data["status"]=="url")

$row["rowstyle"]='style="background:Gainsboro"';
elseif ($data["status"]=="dom")

$row["rowstyle"]='style="background:red"';
else

$row["rowstyle"]='style="background:Palegreen"';
But would like icons in the status fields enstead...
Please advice.

Claus,
to show icons in cells open "View as" settings dialog on the Visual Editor tab. Choose Custom format and add your php code there.
Here is a sample:

if ($value=="url")

$value="<img src=\"images/custom_image1.gif\">";
elseif ($value=="dom")

$value="<img src=\"images/custom_image2.gif\">";
else

$value="<img src=\"images/custom_image3.gif\">";

I often do this, but i use a different approach where i do not need to do any custom cone. ie.
I have a drop sown for "status" which can take 3 values; 1, 2 or 3
I have 3 images: 1.gif, 2.gif and 3.gif
And then I make the following query in MySQL:

concat("images/", `_medlemsregister`.`status`, ".gif") AS ikon,


The result is a field "ikon" which i format to image
that is the way I make all my "traffic lights"

This works fine, thanks.. But it only works if there is a value in the field. blank values gets no logo.. i thougth it should have god the image3.gif..
Please advice

Claus,
this code should work for the fields with empty values also. Please publish your project on Demo Account and open a ticket at http://support.xlinesoft.com sending a URL to your pages along with instructions on reproducing this error.
