I stumbled upon a video in develop php, that uses php to create a dynamic xml file. I tried to use their code, and modify to my needs but I wasn't able to. I need a php file that creates an xml with all the subfolders in a folder and the images inside those subfolders. Can someone please help me get this working? Thanks. This is what I have tried so far: http://www.developphp.com/video/PHP/Image-Gallery-PHP-Loop-Files-Dynamic-XML-Tutorial <?php header("Content-Type: text/xml"); // set the content type to xml // Initialize the xmlOutput variable $xmlBody = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>'; $dir = "../images/"; // Specify Directory where images are $xmlBody .= "<XML>"; // Start XMLBody output // open specified directory using opendir() the function $dirHandle = opendir($dir); // Create incremental counter variable if needed $i = 0; $root = '../images'; $iter = new RecursiveIteratorIterator( new RecursiveDirectoryIterator($root, RecursiveDirectoryIterator::SKIP_DOTS), RecursiveIteratorIterator::SELF_FIRST, RecursiveIteratorIterator::CATCH_GET_CHILD // Ignore "Permission denied" ); $paths = array($root); foreach ($iter as $path => $dir) { if ($dir->isDir()) { $paths[] = $path; if(!is_dir($file) && strpos($file, '.jpg')){ $i++; // increment $i by one each pass in the loop $xmlBody .= <'$paths[$iter]'>' '<'$paths[$iter]'> <picNum>' . $i . '</picNum> <picURL>' . $dir . '' . $file . '</picURL> </Picture>'; } // close the if statement } } while ($file = readdir($dirHandle)) { // if file is not a folder and if file name contains the string .jpg if(!is_dir($file) && strpos($file, '.jpg')){ $i++; // increment $i by one each pass in the loop } // close the if statement } // End while loop closedir($dirHandle); // close the open directory $xmlBody .= "</XML>"; echo $xmlBody; // output the gallery data as XML file for flash ?>
