help check if file exist and repond accordingly

[JD]

What im trying to do is something like this maybe in my profile.php file
//site thumbnail check////////////
$filename = "sitethumbs/".$user['login'].".jpg";
if (file_exists($f ilename)) {
} else {
$t->assign('siteth umbs', $filename);
}
/////end////////////

then I have a file called viewprofile.htm l which uses the profile.php with
smarty templates so in this file I use
{if ($sitethumbs)}
<img src="members/sitethumbs/thumbs/{$user.login}.j pg" border="0"
width="145" alt="Visit {$user.login}'s website">
{/if}

Basicly in the template file it is always showing ($sitethumbs)

I think you are doing it unexpectedly... you are asking for the
sitethumbs to be set when the file does not exist? Shouldn't it be the
otherway around?
