foochuck Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 I'm pretty much a PHP n00b. What I'm trying to do is use PHP to automatically read all of the images in a given folder on my website. Let's say the images are all randomly named. I want PHP to somehow go through each image name in a give folder and then run some kind of loop to place those images on my web page. I'm familiar with running loops and creating html or css to display things - but I'm not sure how I can read images from a folder for my website. If someone could lead me in the right direction via a tutorial or some PHP documentation on the function I need to use, it would really be appreciated!

GingerRobot Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Take a look at the glob() function. The examples there show you how to cycle through a list of files from a folder.

poleposters Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Have you thought about it recording the image names in the database and selectinig them from there?
