    Posted: 10 December 2004 at 5:55pm
In "forum/includes/select_avatar.asp" file, path of avatars is "forum/inclides/avatar_name.jpg" it works fine when users are registering or editing their profiles but on "forum/forum_posts.asp" page the avatar is not displayed under the username because the path for the avatar, on this page, becomes "forum/forum/includes/select_avatar.asp" and the database entry for all my members is "forum/avatars/avatar_name.jpg" in the "Avatar" field of tblAuthor table. How can I issue an SQL-Update command so that all the enteries with "forum/avatars/avatar_name.jpg" in "Avatar" field are changed with "avatars/avatar_name.jpg". Please help.

wel I think it cannot be implemented because the avatar is displayed with this variable strAuthorAvatar and it reads value from the database which is "forum/forum/includes/select_avatar.asp" any other solution ??

the following code should take the first "forum/"



strAuthorAvatar = Trim(Mid(strAuthorAvatar,7,255))


if you place that on the forum_posts just under where the veriable is set from the database for each post it should be ok.
