# image path in general-template.php

 * My php syntax is not the greatest and I need to change the “submit” button to
   a type=image. What is the correct path name for the image src using the equivalent
   of <?php bloginfo(‘template_directory’); ?> ?
 * _<input type=”image” id=”searchsubmit” value=”‘. esc\_attr\_\_(‘Search’) .'” 
   src=”??????????/images/go.gif” border=”0″/>_

 * Try `<input type="image" id="searchsubmit" value="'. esc_attr__('Search') .'"
   src="<?php get_bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/go.gif" />`

 * I originally tried that but it’s not working as the input code lies within a 
   function:
 * function get_search_form($echo = true) {
    do_action( ‘get_search_form’ );
 *  $search_form_template = locate_template(array(‘searchform.php’));
    if ( ” !=
   $search_form_template ) { require($search_form_template); return; }
 *  $form = ‘<form role=”search” method=”get” id=”form1″ action=”‘ . home_url( ‘/’).‘”
   >
    <div> <input type=”text” value=”‘ . get_search_query() . ‘” name=”s” id=”s”/
   > <input type=”image” id=”searchsubmit” value=”‘. esc_attr__(‘Search’) .'” src
   =” <?php bloginfo(‘template_directory’); ?>/images/blank.gif” border=”0″/> </
   div> </form>’;
 *  if ( $echo )
    echo apply_filters(‘get_search_form’, $form); else return apply_filters(‘
   get_search_form’, $form); }

 * I worked it out finally:
    _ <input type=”image” id=”searchsubmit” value=”‘. esc\
   _attr\_\_(‘Search’) .'” src=”‘. get\_bloginfo(‘template\_directory’) .’/images/
   blank.gif” border=”0″/>
