This works nicely. copied code from online manual, chainsaw editing to fit,
superglue in the spare parts needed and it lists them all and composes
proper img links to display on the inventory page. NOW I have the tool i
needed; can someone else put this to good work?
Well, congrats on a first somewhat useful program. All I have to say
now is: you have a long way to go.

Re: [PHP] image inventoryer
Thank you!
Not QUITE the first; I have used snippets and small routines for a
while; however I did not know how to do this in php.
Turns out there are at least 2 methods: glob, and an iteration of
the directory with readdir() to build up an array, then one by one
print the elements in the array. In python this is not hard.
Iteration in python is somewhat different- not to mention getting
used to do blocks. Being so used to snake charming, learning a new
way means getting used to different procedures.

Re: [PHP] image inventoryer
Kirk:
Okay, you took the first step. Now please review this:
?php
foreach (glob(images/*.jpg) as $filename)
{
echo(img src=\$filename\br$filename brbr);
}
?
Note:
1. This example does not put in all the embedded formatting shown in your
example. What you did was simply bad form -- you should learn css as well.
Also, you don't need to place the code within a bunch of html -- it will work
as-is.
2. I always want my students to place images in an image directory -- the above
conforms to that.
3. The example also shows how to separate the jpg's from other files in the
directory.
So, where do you want to go now?
Cheers,
tedd

Re: [PHP] image inventoryer
As Tommy says - you sound like a total new user who doesn't know how to do it and furthermore doesn't know how many things you are going to have to pick up just to accomplish this task. You have to: determine the folder your script is running from collect an array of image file names from that directory determine the size of each of these images so that you are not building some html that will try to display an unmanageable amount of data all at once. You may then have to learn how to create smaller images for your img tags, which is another learning process in itself determine how many images you will display and decide again if you really can allow the user to make this kind of request. This could also create another step in the process to keep track of what images have already been displayed so that when the screen comes back to your script you can pick up where you left off and display a second page. THEN you can generate the html to produce a useful page of images. At least that's how I would approach it. And I'm not an expert but simply a guy who has put in about a year's worth of effort into learning enough php to actually do something like this already, among other things. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] image inventoryer
ok.

Something like this. In python I would write something like:
#!/usr/bin/python
import string, glob
files=glob.glob(./*.*) # files is a
list variable (a 1 dimensional addressable array)
for file in files: # for
each cell in files do this doblock:
if str.split(file,'.')[1] in gif,jpg,png): #if the file
type is in a list of acceptable types,
print 'img src=./'+file+'P'# print out the
material to return surrounding

some programming experience.
