I'm having a bit of a weird problem. I'm displaying images from a mysql table, but for some reason, the images sometimes display and other times don't. On the one page, there may be up to 12 images loading, based on the user's account, however, 2 or 3 of these images may not display. On refresh, it could be a completely different 2 or 3 images that don't display. Sometimes it's only 1 image that doesn't display.

I'm an experienced PHP programmer, so I can't probably assure you that it's nothing in the code. I'm looking for something in the PHP/MySQL setup most likely.

Any ideas?

how are you outputing picures? through a image.php?id=12 method?
are you using a content-type header on your images when you display them?

Fixed the problem. I was thrown off because the script seemed to be working fine on another page to display the image output.

I'm using ImageMagick to resize images on the fly, depending on the w= variable passed in the URL. To get that to work however, I have to make a temporary file on the server. That filename was fixed everytime, so I guess at the speed at which PHP was running, there must have been a problem reusing the filename as fast as I was requiring. I've now added a random string to the end of the temporary filename and it seems to be working fine now.

Thanks for your time.
