Hi,
what you need to do this is a server side script language like PHP
to read/list your image folder and call the result via AJAX back to
the users browser within Javascript.
The Code you can implement is as follows:
<--- SNIP
function readFolder() {
new Request.HTML({
method: 'get',
onComplete: function(responseHTML) {
var folderView = $("YourFolderElementInPage");
folderView.innerHTML = responseHTML;
}
}).post("site.php");
-->
the "site.php" is your server side Script which list the contents of
image directory
and renders the output into a view like a gallery so the user can
click on the images.
Hope, that helps
Andy
