Yea! of course, the htmlentities would cause a problem in this case.

Actually, it's not that much harder. Use an sql statement to get it into a
variable, $foo say, as normal and then use either
1. <?php print("<img src=\"$foo\" border=\"0\">") ?>
or
2. <img src="<?php print($foo) ?>" border="0">
...and you'll probably have to do combinations, depending on what you are
doing.
