I have looked up and down for a solution to this problem without any
luck.
I sell stuff on ebay. ebay will allow me to place javascript in my
listings which I use to show a series of thumbnails of my item. In my
script I have a variable that defines the number of pictures of that
item.
What I would like to do is have the script determine the number of
pictures in the directory. I host the pictures on my own server and I
can turn on directory browsing, if that helps. I could also run a
server sided script to determine that number but I don't know how to
call that script from the ebay page. I'm pretty much a hack and a
beginner at programming so I need this to be a pretty basic solution.
Thanks for any help.

Instead, maybe the script could add an iframe to the page, then have the
page shown in the iframe generate the thumbnails server-side based on a
directory name that you provide.
Say you create an iframe and set its src to http://www.example.com/makethumbnail...temdir=somedir. The PHP file
harvests the query string, scans the somedir directory and generates a HTML
page with thumbnails for the images in that directory.

Thanks for the info. I'll have to double check but I don't think ebay
allows the iframe tag.

I'm creating an ad for eBay and want to keep the page condensed. I
have 6 images - different views of an antique lap steel guitar - that
need to show superb detail. I have cropped the images to take up a
full webpage width. However, I don't want to put all six images on
the page. I thought I could use icons as the trigger for displaying
the images one by one. I cropped the six images down to small (but
identifiable) icons.
Is there...

Hello, I'm using tiny MCE plugin on my oscommerce and it is inserting my website URL when I use insert image function in the emails.
The goal is: Make it send the email with the URL http://mghospedagem.com/images/controlpanel.jpg
instead of
http://mghospedagem.comhttp://mghospedagem.com/images/controlpanel.jpg
As u see, there's the website URL before the image URL.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
