Display all images in a directory..

[forumnz]

How can i display all the images in a certain directory and echo the image names. So if a new image is uploaded, it will still display without edited the gallery.php file.

 

Cheers.

Thanks.. I have come up with this but it wont display the image. What is wrong with it?

 

<?php
$d = dir("upload/sport_motocross");
echo "Handle: " . $d->handle . "\n";
echo "Path: " . $d->path . "\n";
while (false !== ($entry = $d->read())) {
   echo "<a img src=" . $entry."\n" . "/>";
}
$d->close();
?>

<a img src

 

Basic html, the a tag is a hyperlink, you need it to be just <img src=

 

Also the location as to be the absolute path meaning http://www.site.com/dir/pic.jpg because just pic.jpg won't work

Right ok. Now it works but it also tries to displays images for the two directories - even though they aren't images.

 

How can I stop this?

Do an if statement and check the filename for .jpg, .gif, .png, .jpeg  if it is not that extension don't add it.

echo "Path: " . $d->path . "\n";
while (false !== ($entry = $d->read())) {
   if ($entry == "." || $entry == "..") {
       continue;
   }elseif (!ereg('gif|jpg|jpeg|png', $entry)) {
       continue;
   }  
   echo "<img src=" . $entry."\n" . "/>";
}
$d->close();
?> 

 

Try that.

I find it's much easier to use the glob() function.

 

<?php
fioreach(glob({'upload/sport_motocross/*.jpg','upload/sport_motocross/*.gif','upload/sport_motocross/*.png'}, GLOB_BRACE) as $file) {
   list($h, $w, $dmy1, $attr, $dmy2) = getimagesize($file);
   echo '<img src="' . $file . '" ' . $attr . "/><br />\n";
}
?>

Ok I have one more problem. How can I get the images to display in rows of 5 instead of one above the other?

 

This is my code so far.

 

<?php
$d = dir("sport_motocross");
//echo "Handle: " . $d->handle . "\n";
//echo "Path: " . $d->path . "\n";
while (false !== ($entry = $d->read())) {
   if ($entry == "." || $entry == "..") {
       continue;
   }elseif (!ereg('gif|jpg|jpeg|png', $entry)) {
       continue;
   }  
   echo "<img src=" . "http://www.designervision.co.nz/magik/gallery/sport_motocross/" .$entry. "\n" . "/>" . "<br />" . $entry. "<br />";

}
$d->close();
?>

<?php
foreach(glob("/path/to/directory/*.jpg") as $img){
    echo $img.'<br>';
}
?>

You either have to put the images in a table or use floating <divs>.
