IMG Broken box ?

[designedfree4u]

I have a script where i let users upload to a specific dir, then a java script on thier gallery page to display images that they uploaded. There are 10 images. pic1, pic2, pic3 and so on. so when they upload and rename pic1 to replace pic1.

 

My question is, say they only upload 8 images this leaves me with 2 broken links with that stupid box with a red x. How do i remove it?

 

Also for purposes on thier upload page, how can i replace the broken link img with my own custom one.

 

The script to display images i got from dynamic drive by the way.

 

Thanks,

 

Jason

Without seeing a single line of code or a specific reference to which of the DD scripts you use, that's making life difficult.  I bet that the DD script can be customised to show however many images you want ... that just leaves the problem of counting them. How you accomplish that rather depends on a number of things.

 

Alternatively, upload a few 'placeholder' images of your own to (each) user folder and name them pic1 ... pic10 so there are always no 'missing' images.

AH AH AH good Thinkin Lincon! Why didn't i think of that? As goes the upload page.

 

Now for the broken img link on the public page, how would i make it not display anything? if nothing has been uploaded

here is the img script i place in seperate div's

 

<p><a href="http://img184.imageshack.us/img184/1159/castleyi6.gif" rel="thumbnail" title="This is beautiful castle for sale!">Castle</a></p>

<p><a href="http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/6923/countryxb6.gif"" rel="thumbnail"><img src="thumbnail.gif" style="width: 50px; height: 50px" /></a></p>

 

and here is the outside javascript file, sorry it's really long.
