use Img source with php variable

Question

I want to use some thumbshots generated images inside a WP loop, and the code looks like this:

if (!$thumbnail && wpbdp_get_option(\'use-default-picture\         


        

Answer 1

$thumbnail = 'http://images.thumbshots.com/image.aspx?cid=HIPFHapOLHw%3d&v=1&w=283&url='.urlencode(wpbusdirman_the_listing_meta('single'));

Answer 2

URL encode the returned value!! You're putting a URL into a URL- if you don't URLEncode it, you're asking for more than a little trouble. I believe it's as simple as:

<?php echo urlencode(wpbusdirman_the_listing_meta('single')); ?>
