Display image instead of checkbox value

Hi,

I created a simple form to manage my custom keywords : keyword name (text) AND a an icon (image) as fields

In my article form I added a checkbox field to list all my keywords and make the user able to select the keywords (text).
But when article is displayed I would prefer displaying the icons instead of a list of textual keywords : To get a single and nice row of icons !

As only the text value is recorded in the article, is there any way to get the icon associated with the keyword ?

Thanks for your help,

Regards,

Hi Lionel77,

You can use for that a typography plugin "HTML" by clicking on button "2" in the content view.

Hi Mehdi,

Thanks for your quick reply,

I tried to use HTML or Image but I didn't succeed !

Can you give me more detail about the synthax to use or a sample code to put in the field ?

Note : In the article, there is no image. Juste the keyword linked to the keyword form where the associated picture is located.

Many thanks for your support,

Hi Lionel77,

You can use syntax like that:

$cck->getValue('name_of_tag_field') <img src="/path_of_the_desired_icon"/>

Ok, but I don't understand how it will link the text value of the field (value(s) behind "name_of_the_tag_field") to a "dynamic" path to the image depending of the value of the checkbox.

Lionel77,

In this case, you can define each option of the checkbox field like "text you want to display=path of the corresponding icon".
