Hi! I'm currently developing a photography portfolio for a friend. To display his images, rather than using a database and allowing it to get massive, I've decided to go ahead and stick them into a directory and then cycle through it. As it's currently set up, I open the directory and read it, use preg_split() to divide the files up according to file type, and then use a foreach() statement to display them. It works like a charm. But now I have a problem: I want to limit the amount of files that are echoed out. I've tried everything. Using this: $i = 0; foreach($images as $image){ // blahblahblah $i++ if($i > 10){ break; } } And that doesn't work. :| And I also decided to try and count() the array and stuff. Nothing worked. Furthermore, print_r() returns this: Array ( [0] => [1] => a_message.jpg [2] => ) Array ( [0] => [1] => cold_call.jpg [2] => ) Array ( [0] => [1] => ring_of_love.jpg [2] => ) Array ( [0] => thumbs ) Array ( [0] => [1] => unclear.jpg [2] => ) Isn't it supposed to return ONE array with different keys?! >.> Here is the code: $img_dir = "images/photographs/"; if(is_dir($img_dir)){ if($img_handle = opendir($img_dir)){ echo "<div id=\"index_thumbnails\"><div id=\"hidden_images\">"; while(($img = readdir($img_handle)) !== false){ if($img !== "Thumbs.db" && $img !== "." && $img !== ".."){ $images = preg_split('/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]*\.jpg$)/', $img, 0, PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE); if(empty($images)){ echo "<b>Sorry, there are no images to display!</b>"; } else{ foreach($images as $img_display){ if($img_display !== "" && $img_display !== "thumbs"){ $img_name = "images/photographs/{$img_display}"; $thumb_path = "images/photographs/thumbs/"; $size = getimagesize($img_name); $width = $size['0']; $height = $size['1']; $nwidth = round($width/20); $nheight = round($height/20); $img_thumb = imagecreatefromjpeg("{$img_name}"); $resized = imagecreatetruecolor($nwidth, $nheight); imagecopyresampled($resized, $img_thumb, 0, 0, 0, 0, $nwidth, $nheight, $width, $height); imagejpeg($resized, "{$thumb_path}{$img}_thumb.jpg"); echo "<img src=\"{$thumb_path}{$img}_thumb.jpg\" height=\"{$nheight}\" width=\"{$nwidth}\"/>"; } } } print_r($images); } } closedir($img_handle); echo "</div></div>"; } } Bear with the fact that I'm not using a function to shrink my images. xD I'm getting all of the work out of the way before I make a function and link it to a database to get image information. All help is appreciated! Thank you!
