Creating image gallery

[krunkelgarten]

Hi there,

I'm trying to create a fully automatic image gallery. I already have
the page
that automatically creates the index of thumbnails.

What i want now, is to create a page which indexes which galleries
there are;
each gallery is in a folder, so it has to check for folders, and if it
excists
automatically grab the first thumbnail, and put it in a table, and it
puts the
name of the gallery/folder beneath it.

I already got this far, but what i want, is that you get 4 thumbnails
next to
each other, and then automatically the next row.

What i have is the next code:

<?php

$the_array = Array();
$handle = opendir('.');

while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle ))) {
if ($file != "." && $file != ".." && $file != "index.php" ) { /* as
descripted below: these "files" will not be added to the array */
$the_array[] = $file;
}
}
closedir($handl e);

foreach ($the_array as $element) {
echo "<table width=104 height=104 border=0 cellpadding=0
cellspacing=0 class=pictable>
<tr>

<td align=center valign=middle>< a href=./$element target=_self
onFocus=this.bl ur()><img src=./$element/tmb/01.gif alt=$element
width=90 height=90 border=0></a></td>
</tr>
</table>";} ?>


So every gallery has the same structure: index.php, and 2 folders; pix
& tmb

What i want is:
_______________ _______________ ___
| | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
| img | | img | | img | | img |
| | | | | | | |
_______________ _______________ ___
_______________ _______________ ___
| | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
| img | | img | | img | | img |
| | | | | | | |
_______________ _______________ ___

Hope this is clear:

I only want a table, if there is a folder.
Between every table, i want a column, so the 4
images are equally spread.

Sorry for the long question...

Re: Creating image gallery

Hi, as far as i understand you wanna to display photos 4 X 2 in a
table?!
It's pretty simple, here is example how to display 3 X 3 you can see
it at http://haifa.us.
$arr_len=count( $picsArr);
echo "<table cellspacing=\"2 \" cellpadding=\"2 \" border=\"0\"
width=100%>";
echo "<tr>";
for($i=0; $i<$arr_len;$i+ +){
if(is_string($p icsArr[$i]))
echo "<td><div class=\"present ation\">".$pics Arr[$i]."</div></td>";

this is most important part, it's close </tr> row on specific number,
for example on photo number 3(0,1,2) the first row will be created and
you'll go to row #2!
if($i==2 || $i==5 || $i==8)
echo"</tr><tr>";
}



let me kno if you have any questions!
