If you’re curious to know what it does, you can find it in the code here (version of RC3): image() function in RC3
If you don’t understand the code: don’t worry, you don’t need to know how it works, but why to use it and how to use it.
You should use the function image() for two reasons:
- The function image loops through the theme to find the image. If the theme you’re working on is extended to another theme, and if you copy the file to where you inserted the picture locally, but that picture is not copied in the local theme, it will loop through the theme inheritance tree to find where that picture is.
- It will use the asset manager, so it will improve the performance of your theme. See the Yii Asset Manager documentation for more information about it: http://www.yiiframework.com/wiki/148/understanding-assets/
