Well I run a gaming website, and it runs off my own code. But right now I can't think of a solution for my problem.
What I have is every game in the database has a directory for it's images, and inside that directory is a directory labelled 'media'.

What I want to do is to show all the images in a directory in rows of 4. I think I could probably do the grab all the image files, but the sorting into the rows I don't know how to do.
Could anyone show me how to do this?
I hope I explained clearly enough

You could use a counter. Use a loop to add a new table column until teh counter reaches four, then add a new row and column then go columns until it reaches four again.

Hi,

You are lucky, I am just working on a similar script. Here is the solution i made:

PHP Code:

Function Display_Img ($game_dir, $sub_dir )  {

   //path to directory where images are

      $img_types = array("jpg", "jpeg", "png");   // image file types

      $dir_path = $game_dir . "/" . $sub_dir . "/";   // path to image directory

      

if ($handle = opendir($dir_path))  {

     while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle)))  { 

                for ($i = 0; $i < count($img_types); $i++)   {

                    if (eregi("\.". $$img_types[$i] ."$", $file))  {

                $tmp_file_path = $dir_path . $file;

                                       print "<img src='$tmp_file_path'>";

                    }

            }

    }

   closedir($handle); 

} // close if



} 

That above, is a simple function, that runs through your GAME_DIR (starting from the location of the place where the file with this function is located) and accompanied with particular game subdir, in your case - 'media', and gets all the image file in the dir.

This function does the whole thing, except printing the result in rows. I hope you will get the idea of how to arrange them in a row, or in table!

Hope, this solved some of your problem!

Thanks. With a bit of a change it worked great. It does seem to try to show two-non existant images. I'll work at getting rid of them.
Thanks for your help

Update: I managed to get rid of the two broken images. It works fine now. Thanks again for your help

Good, it helped.

I spent a lot of work and effort on making it for my own needs, so no prob helping you, man!

Have a great time!
