No Photo showing in Product Details/Results, but there is the file path

I have the WAEL. I am attempting to ad an image upload in the insert products pages. I thought I followed the tutorials but I am not getting the images to show up on the details or results pages. Instead of the image, there is only text that shows up that is the folder path for the image. "/images/product_images" I also did have at one time the filename show up like "web_kit.jpg" by the form feild, but that was when I had the image uploading to the wrong directory... I checked and the upload page is uploading the image into the proper directory /images/product_images

Any ideas? I know its such a noob thing and I am sure its something simple I overlooked in the tutorial

you have to dynamically populate the img src attribute from the recordset:

php:
<img  src="/images/product_images/<?php echo $row_RecordsetName['imageColumn']; ?> />

that code looks correct, are you sure the image file name is being stored in the database? can you double check?

If it is not being stored in the database, please send a copy of the insert page.

but is it saving the file name in the database? To be able to show the image on the results page, the file name must be stored in the database.

it is uploading the images into the correct folder, but the database just has "/images/product_images" and not the full file name.

In the Insert Record server behavior, the ProductImage column is not properly bound to the server file name variable.

Double click the insert record server behavior. Select the ProductImage column and click the lightning bolt next to value. Expand The WA Uploaded File (File Field name) Collection and select the Server File Name variable.
