Well, congrats on a first somewhat useful program. All I have to say
now is: you have a long way to go.

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.

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?

Kirk:
Okay, you took the first step. Now please review this:
<?php
foreach (glob("images/*.jpg") as $filename)
{
echo("<img src=\"$filename\"><br>$filename <br><br>");
}
?>
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

Revisiting said dead horse, it's interesting there is no clear
consensus of opinion about what is the best book to use to learn
php. Generally, you get several people chiming in talking about the
website. Now the website is the bomb indeed, BUT IT'S NOT A BOUND
BOOK! So that's a terrific answer to a totally different question.
It's interesting really; it suggests there is a wide range of
perspectives and mindsets about wha is the best way to come to
understand php. Possibly this suggests something about the general
mindset of the php community- wide ranging individualism?
