[abhayneilam]

Hi,

I have a requirement that I have a table in which I do have multiple columns about the employee information, In which I have a column called NAME, what I want is to display the photo of an employee beside each employees name.

Please help me to do that .

Thanks in advance !!

So you don't have them on an existing webserver?

You could place them into $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/your_app/appserver/static/photos and include <img src="photos/photo$NAME$.png"> in your dashboard, then Splunk will do the webserver part.
See the Splunk 6.x Dashboard Examples app for how to build your own table cell renderer.

Check out the inline icons example from the Splunk 6.x Dashboard Examples app at http://your_host:8000/en-US/app/simple_xml_examples/custom_table_icon_set_inline installable from https://apps.splunk.com/app/1603/

In that icon is added at the end , but I want to be added beside the name of each employee

I have like :

Name Age Salary
AAA 26 100
BBB 36 200
CCC 40 3000
DDD 50 5555

This is a table chart, I have got this with SPL and I am using basic XML. Now , I want it to be like

Name Age Salary
( Photo of AAA ) AAA 26 100
( Photo of BBB ) BBB 36 200
( Photo of CCC ) CCC 40 3000
( Photo of DDD ) DDD 50 5555

So, in my XML code where the exact change needs to be done, for this do I want to use js or css , if yes please tell me

Photos are in the local directory !! lets say for an example /var/tmp/PHOTOS/photo*.png

Can't tell you the exact code without knowing your architecture, e.g. where the photos are.

[martin_mueller]

Where do you get the photos from, are they stored on some webserver?

If they are, you could use a table cell renderer that displays html such as <img src="your_webserver/employee_photos/$NAME$.jpg"> or similar.
