Displayed linked picture in Gridview

Mar 29, 2019 02:12 PM|janehollin|LINK

Let’s say I have a database with:
Place_ID
Place_Name
Place_picture

For example
Place_ID = 123
Place_Name = Everest
Place_picture = https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Everest_kalapatthar.jpg#/media/File:Everest_kalapatthar.jpg

Place_ID = 465
Place_Name = Grand Canyon
Place_picture = https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Nankoweap.JPG#/media/File:Nankoweap.JPG

How do I get this linked to picture to show in the grid view Or I could save the picture to a folder in the website, how would I show this (but I would rather just link to wikipeadia)

I show this on a Gridview like this (the picture is not showing obviously)

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<%@ Page Language="C#" %>

<meta content="en-gb" http-equiv="Content-Language" />
<meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type" />
<title>Untitled 1</title>
</head>

<body>

<form id="form1" runat="server">
		<asp:GridView id="gridview1" runat="server" allowpaging="True" AllowSorting="True" 
		AutoGenerateColumns="True" 
		DataSourceID="my_data_source" 
		ShowHeader="True">
		<Columns>
			<asp:boundfield DataField="Place_Name">
			</asp:boundfield>
			<asp:boundfield DataField="Place_picture">
			</asp:boundfield>
		</Columns>
		</asp:GridView>
		<asp:AccessDataSource ID="some_name" runat="server" DataFile="myDatabase.mdb" SelectCommand="SELECT [Place_Name], [Place_picture] FROM [my_table]">
		</asp:AccessDataSource>

</form>

</body>

</html>

You can try below code to display image in GridView which stored as a link in database. I have used simple HTML img tag to display image.

<asp:GridView ID="gvImages" CssClass="Gridview" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
HeaderStyle-BackColor="#7779AF" HeaderStyle-ForeColor="white">
<Columns>
<asp:BoundField HeaderText = "Image Name" DataField="ImageURL" />
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Image">
<ItemTemplate>
<img src='<%# Eval("ImageURL") %>' Height="150" Width="150" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
