You can use FileExists(absolute_path) in an if statement.
Eg.
<cfif FileExists("C:\www\images\picture.gif")>
<img src="C:\www\images\picture.gif">
<cfelse>
<img src="C:\www\images\no_picture.gif">
</cfif>

Subject: [ACFUG Discuss] Alternate image shown logic help?
Is there a way to have an alternate image called if an image called does
not exist?
For example:
We call out the image path for the image as if it would one day be
there.
When we shoot an image as it comes into inventory we place the image in
the correct directory, and name it the part number.jpg.
We would like to have a default image show if the correct image does not
exist.
Using the string:
******************
//'display the right product image
if ( intImagePos EQ 3 ){
WriteOutput("<td class=""ProductImage"">" & Chr(10) & Chr(13));
//'show image
if( Len(objProduct.getImage2()) GT 0 ){
writeoutput("<img src=""" & objProduct.getImage2() & """ " &
objProduct.getImage2Params() & ">");
}else{
writeoutput("<p>No Picture Available</p>"); }
WriteOutput("</td>");
*******************
How would you modify this to be able to do that?
I can see that it would be easy to change
}else{
writeoutput("<p>No Picture Available</p>"); to show a path name
but it is VERY easy to add the file name even if it does not exist up
front.
Im thinking that instead of changing
}else{
writeoutput("<p>No Picture Available</p>"); I should use elseif
logic (hmm this is not even CF is it?) To say if the pic is not
available then call a certain image.
If that is not there then do
}else{
writeoutput("<p>No Picture Available</p>");
