Hiya,
Can anyone kindly help me to get started in creating a PHP/MySQL image
gallery, it doesn't have to be anything fancy, just something that
automatically reads the images in the folder and displays it.
Cheers

Try http://gallery.sourceforge.net/

The facts, although interesting, are irrelevant.
Why do you need the images in a database if you are already reading
them from a folder? It is kind of redundant... Unless I am missing
something.
no not necessary, with the dir() method you can find images (and open
them/display them/delete them), but mostly I keep the filenames in a
database because I often like to have some administration with my
images; like the owner, the gallery it should be displayed in, a
discription of the image, location of the thumbnail, a one to many
relation with a users comments table. In that case it is just easier to
keep the filenames in the database. As long as you add the images when
uploaded, and unlink() them when removed from the database, there
shouldn't be any problem. jo************* **@gmail.com wrote: Why do you need the images in a database if you are already reading

Nothing to do with your request admittedly, but you should check out http://www.flickr.com if you havent already.
It's SERIOUSLY good - and the online community aspect has to be seen to be
believed.

What I originally wanted to do is to have the image path stored in a
database and the php page retrieving them. Only problem is that I have about
200 images so inputting them all into a database is going to be one long
task. How would you suggest I approach this?
Thanks.

throw all the files in any directory.
write a php script that reads the names of the image files in the directory,
then appends the 'real' path to the front of them (ie: the script changes the
variable from "butter.jpg " to "http://www.yoursite.co m/path/to/butter.jpg")
the same script then takes the new name and puts it where you want in your
database.... loop it 200 times (or once for each file in your directory) and
voila!
good luck!
Yeah, that is what I would do, you may even want to make it modular so
you can reuse it later, for instance have it ask you what the absolute
URL to the image folder is before it appends the URL (as opposed to
hard-coding the URL)
Just use foreach() to make it loop through every file in the directory
for the number of files in the directory.

I've been working with this PHP page for several days now and I'm stumped. The page is supposed to allow the user to upload up to six images for their profile. When the user adds an image it (the page coding) does verify file size, if correct it places it on the server in the users folder and with the correct names and extension, creates the thumbnail and adds the correlating file name. However, it only adds the first file name to the database....

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.
