Pagination with photo thumbnails

[drewtheman]

Please help!  I am using a simple gallery script that allows me to create thumbnails based on the jpegs ina specified folder.  The script even includes a variable to change in order to control the amount of columns.  This is great for a few pictures, but what code would I need if there were hundreds and I only wanted only 15-20 thumbnails with a 'next' and 'prev' links to view more?

 

Here is my current code:

 

<?php

 

$images = "photos/"; # Location of small versions

$big    = "big/"; # Location of big versions (assumed to be a subdir of above)

$cols  = 4; # Number of columns to display

 

if ($handle = opendir($images)) {

  while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {

      if ($file != "." && $file != ".." && $file != rtrim($big,"/")) {

          $files[] = $file;

      }

  }

  closedir($handle);

}

 

$colCtr = 0;

 

echo '<table width="10%" cellspacing="3"><tr>';

 

foreach($files as $file)

{

  if($colCtr %$cols == 0)

    echo '</tr><tr><td colspan="2"></td></tr><tr>';

  echo '<td align="center"><a href="' . $images . $file . '"><img src="' . $images . $file . '" / width=70 height=50 border=0></a></td>';

  $colCtr++;

}

 

echo '</table>' . "\r\n";

 

 

?>
