I need help with my gallery

[Effix]

Hi everybody
I have yet another problem, actually two but lets start with this
one :-)
Im making a very simple gallery or at least I think its simple.
I have already made a upload script that uploads and resizes the image
and also creates a thumbnail.
So now I have my folder "images/galleri/" and "images/galleri/thumbs".
Now its time to dynamically display the images on a page.
I have set the $filename variable to display the thumbnails as you can
see below but how do I set the $filename_stor to link to the large
image. Perhaps im "attacking" this problem all wrong? I have tried to
nest another foreach in the first but that just messed everything up.

<?php
foreach (glob('images/galleri/thumbs/*.jpg') as $filename ) {
echo '<td><a href="'.$filena me_stor.'" rel="milkbox[]" <img
src="'.$filenam e.'" </a>'."&nbsp;&nbs p;</td>";
}
?>
The 2nd problem is that I want the images in a table that is no more
than 6 colums wide and N number of rows. Im thinking that I proberly
need to use an array!?

Any suggestions or solutions are very welcome
I hope you can help me.

I forgot to mention that both the thumbnail and the large image have
the same filename but different path.

In my gallery script I have used a naming convention for the images.
Original images are in one folder with their original names Display
images are in another folder and are prefixed like so b_$filename
Similarly, thumbnails are names s_$filename So if I get the filenames
of the main images I automatically know the filenames of the display and
thumbnail images.

I've used CSS to display the images dynamically so don't have the table
problem (www.slipperyhill.co.uk/gallery ). If you do want to use a
table you need to check each time the loop returns to see if you need to
insert a </tr You could check the modulus of a counter to do this.
Assuming your filename are in $filename_array and combining the two
ideas, you might have something like this:-

//set up variables
$thumbs_dir='th umbs/';
$display_dir='d isplay/';

$table="<table id='thumbnails' >\n<tr>\n";
$count=1;
//loop through filenames
foreach($filena me_array as $filename){
$table.=($count %6==0)?"</tr>\n<tr>\n":"" ;
$table.="<td><a href='".$displa y_dir."b_".$fil ename."' ><img
src='".$thumbs_ dir."s_".$filen ame."'></a></td>\n";
$count++;
}
//finish off table row
while($count%6! =0){
$table.="<td>&n bsp;</td>\n";
$count++;
}
$table.="<tr>\n </table>";
//echo table to screen;
echo $table;

Untested.

You can easily modify the solution I just posted by removing the
prefixes.

Thank you for yor solution Geoff. Your right I have my files in an
arrray. I use the glob() function. It seems theres no way to strip the
path from the glob() function so my array contains path and filename.
Is there an alternative to glob which only gives me the filenames?
could scandir() work?

Well presumably you know the path(s). You just need the portion to the
right of the last '/'

strrchr () will give you everything from the last '/' onwards

so

$filename= substr(strrchr ($filepath,"/"), 1)

Aah I see I was trying to use trim() to remove the path from the array
but that didnt work :)
Altohug I cant seem to get strrchr to work either, im sorry to be such
a bother. Apparently it strips the path but no filename appears efter
the last /
here is my code so far, not modified much (not yet anyways :) ) from
your original suggestion.

//set up variables
$filename_array = glob('images/galleri/thumbs/*.jpg');
$filepath= 'images/galleri/thumbs/' ;
$thumbs_dir='im ages/galleri/thumbs/';
$display_dir='i mages/galleri/';
$table="<table id='thumbnails' >\n<tr>\n";
$count=1;
//loop through filenames
foreach($filena me_array as $filename){
$filename= substr(strrchr ($filepath,"/"), 0, 20) ;
$table.=($count %6==0)?"</tr>\n<tr>\n":"" ;
$table.="<td><a href='".$displa y_dir."".$filen ame."' ><img
src='".$thumbs_ dir."".$filenam e."'></a></td>\n";
$count++;

}
//finish off table row
while($count%6! =0){
$table.="<td>&n bsp;</td>\n";
$count++;

}

$table.="<tr>\n </table>";
//echo table to screen;
echo $table;

?>

This results in a page with a table that look like this
<table id='thumbnails' >
<tr>
<td><a href='images/galleri//' ><img
src='images/galleri/thumbs//'></a></td>
<td><a href='images/galleri//' ><img
src='images/galleri/thumbs//'></a></td>
<td><a href='images/galleri//' ><img
src='images/galleri/thumbs//'></a></td>
<td><a href='images/galleri//' ><img
src='images/galleri/thumbs//'></a></td>
<td><a href='images/galleri//' ><img
src='images/galleri/thumbs//'></a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><a href='images/galleri//' ><img
src='images/galleri/thumbs//'></a></td>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<tr>
</table>

What am I doing wrong?

Don't worry about being confused, it probably has a lot to do with me
being lazy and not explaining properly.

Look at this:

foreach($filena me_array as $filename){
$filename= substr(strrchr ($filepath,"/"), 0, 20) ;
....

$filepath in this instance was meant to be the output from your array
(with the path bit that you didn't want)
substr() was being used to strip off the leading '/'.

So it should be:-

foreach($filena me_array as $filename){
//strip path so we just have filename
$filename= substr(strrchr ($filename,"/"), 1) ;
....

Not really paid much attention to this thread - but shouldnt that be the
following .....

$filename=subst r(strrchr($file path,"/"),1) ;

Or perhaps you could use basename as it does the job in this particular
case .

$filename=basen ame($filepath);

Yeah it should be as you say but that didnt work so I tried to
tinkering with the settings to get any results but still nothing
happens.
