how to use new image folder in cakephp

I have created a folder in app/webroot/. for image placing. eralier by default img folder cantain image. which I have used some thing like this:

<?php 
   echo $html->image('foldopen.png',array('width'=>14,开发者_开发知识库'height'=>'10','alt'=>'open'));
?>

now I have created new image folder insted of img folder. how to use this?

use a slash at the beginning of the path. For example

echo $html->image('/images/foldopen.png');

Using the slash at the start is relative to the app/webroot directory

Just create your folder in webroot folder (test) and use like this:

echo $this->Html->image('/test/image.jpg');

I created one images folder in webroot dir. I used

$this->Html->image('../images/profile_image.jpg');

in my cakephp2.1 application. this worked for me.

or you can just change the App.imageBaseUrl in app/Config/core.php

If you want to keep your $html->image() statements short and modify the default image route you could always override the default behavior of image() by altering the config/tags.php file.
