Hello!
I have been trying to write a script that changes the title tag of my images. This is because I'm using a script to generate an image gallery, which I linked to a lightbox. I need to put a caption to the images cause well, I think the visitors would like to know what they're looking at :p/ Thing is, I am absolutely clueless now. I have a vague idea though, which is basically to have a text file containing lines with things like,
img1.jpg, This is your caption
and so on
Which I'd access using fopen and fget, split it using explode, loop the lines into an array, match it to $filename using an if statement and change the $title tag accordingly. My previous experience of PHP is from copying and pasting scripts and modifying them. XD
I'd really, really appreciate some help here. Thanks! :p

So how are you doing it now? If you use lightbox, can you post the relative code?
you should be able to read their PHP code unless its obfuscated (scrambled) in that case, Good luck.
Those images and captions have to be stored somewhere, a file and explode is good if the file is not large. otherwise create a database and consider pagation methods.
Is your question how to modify lightbox photo gallery to also store title of image?
Edit: Posted code doesn't show itself so I removed it. Think its too long. But if you google galerie.php, you should be able to find the script. Its distributed under GNU public licence.
At line 330,
else echo('<a href="' . html("$dirnameh ttp/$filename") . '" rel="ibox');
I think I should add a title="$title"
where $title is gotten from a delimited text file which consists of the filename and the title tag. Since the original script already has a $filename variable, I thought of doing something like
if ($filename=="fi lename_from_tex t_file")
$title = "caption from text file"
But, like i said I can't program at all / very well in php, so I have no idea what to do..Haha. I only have a general sort of idea.

Are you able to use a mysql database?
IT would make things a hell of alot easier.

Yup. I am able to use a database. But I'm trying not to make the things too complicated since the site I'm making is a volunteer job. Once I'm done, it'll be up to my bosses to update the site. As it stands now, I have a few folders of different types of images. Each folder has a set of css, javascript and the gallery generation php script. I thought that I might me able to modify the existing script so that all I need to do is to add a text file containing filenames and scripts to each folder.
Is that possible?
Hey guys. I finally came up with something but I get this fatal error message. Sigh, programming is driving me nuts. Any idea how I can fix it?
Fatal error: Can't use function return value in write context in /Users/leongz/Sites/images/web pics/hanem/gall.php on line 335 - $filetext = "text.txt"; // File which holds all data

-
$arrFp = file( $filetext ); // Open the data file as an array
-
$numLines = count( $arrFp ); // Count the elements in the array
-
-
for($j=0; $j<=$numLines; $j++) // Loop through the lines of the text file

{
-
if(strstr($arrWords[$i],':') == $filename){
-
strstr($arrWords[$i],':',true) = $title

} //Line 335 is here.

I have compiled some code, some written by me, some compiled from
various sources online, and basically i've got a very simple flat file
photo gallery. An upload form, to upload the photos and give them a
caption, storing the caption and filename in a text file. It's a bit
buggy when removing the photos and captions from the file, and also in
displaying them on the delete page. you can see it in action at

I just finished developing a javascipt component allowing floating
captions to appear over HTML elements.
If anyone wants to check it out you can see specs and download it from

There is a demo there as well.

I have an option group with about 30 options. I would like to have
the Option Labels get their text from a table. Is this possible, and
if so how?
Also, is it possible to embad a font into a database or does each
machine need to have that font installed?
Thanks for any help,

Hi,
I have some code (which I will paste in below) that writes out some
HTML dynamically using the W3C DOM...the last part of the code write
out a simple table. MY problem is that the table is not showing up,
even though it seems to be part of the document (i.e. I can reach the
nodes through through document.body.getElementsByTagName... )
var e;
var f; // Will hold a document fragment.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
