How to retrieve database info into tooltip?

1) Script Title: Image w/ description tooltip v2.0

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...agetooltip.htm

3) Describe problem:

Hi,
I want to use this great scrip in my oscommerce store, but I can't find a way to retrieve images from database. I tried several ways but with no luck.

Code:

---

tooltips[0]=[" images/ . $listing['products_image'] . "]
tooltips[0]=["<?php images/ $listing['products_image'] ;?>"]
tooltips[0]=["<?php DIR_WS_IMAGES . $listing['products_image'] ;?>"]
tooltips[0]=["<?php tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $listings['products_image'], $listings['products_name'] ,POPUP_IMAGE_WIDTH, POPUP_IMAGE_HEIGHT) ;?>"]

---

Here is some of the file code:

Code:

Thank you very much in advance.

From what I can tell, you just aren't actually outputting anything from the PHP. This isn't a problem with the script, but with your PHP's output, so you need to view the generated source code in order to find the problem.

<?php echo EXPRESSION; ?>

That should be all you need to do. But then you'll also, of course, need to add the other parameters for the Javascript function as needed.

What I recommend is:
tooltips[0]=["<?php echo $var1; ?>","<?php echo $var2; ?>", .... ];
