What are the best practices for replacing text with images in PHP when extracting data from a database?

When extracting data from a database in PHP, it is common to replace text with images for better visual representation. One way to achieve this is by storing the image file paths in the database and retrieving them to display the images instead of text. By using HTML image tags, you can dynamically replace text with images based on the data fetched from the database.

// Assuming $data is the array of data fetched from the database
foreach($data as $row){
    echo "<img src='" . $row['image_path'] . "' alt='" . $row['image_alt_text'] . "'>";
}
