[SOLVED] show image title from image variable

[RyanSF07]

Hi Guys,

 

I have a script that grabs images at random from a "thumbnails" folder in my directory. They are displayed with:

 

code code..
echo "<img src='$dir/".$files[$rnd]."'>;

 

Do you know how I can see the name of the image?

 

I'd like to be able to see the image name as a $string variable -- but can't figure out how I can see the name of the image when the image itself is echoed.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Ryan

so, for example, if a picture of a family member is pulled from the folder and ThisFamilyMember'sName.jpg is displayed in a table, is there a way to create ThisFamilyMemeber'sName as a $string variable -- something like --

 

"file name = $string" 

 

Any ideas on how I can do that?

how about this?

 

$string = explode(".",$files[$rnd]);
$string = $string[(sizeof($string)-2)];
