reposting of slideshowpro help with code

Hello all

I have a website that i have built myself, i am using a program called slideshowpro that displays slideshows of my photographs.

A friend of mine wrote some php code to enable the user to click on the photograph and that would open a new window that would display the filename and thumbnail of the selected image with 2 options to purchase prints, once they clicked on purchase it would open a paypal page which would show the filename and price etc.

Here is the webpage so you can check it out. http://www.michaelshuttleworthphotography.co.uk/Event_Photos_Part_1.html

Well this all worked fine until i upgraded slideshowpro.

The ltest version has changed the way that it creates the xml file.

Unfortunately my friend has cleared off to thailand (lucky him) and i am stuck trying to modify the code.

I must say that i know nothing about PHP.

Slideshow pro creates a folder called xml_cache. In this folder it has a number of xml files for each album or gallery.

I only need to use one of the galleries images_gallery_2_900_598_0_80_1_80_60_0_50_1_54_41_0.xml

This holds a number of albums.

I am pretty sure that is only the edit xml file that need modification, i have tried to modify it but with no luck.

If anyone can give me some help i would be most grateful.

I have attached 3 files for you to have a look at.

Just to clarify things, i have built a new site that is not live. the link that i posted is the old site which is still working.

So i have 2 versions of slideshowpro running, on 2 diferent domains and isp's.

I am going to post the code for all to view.

Also i don't think anyone on the slideshowpro forums can help, everyone seems to be looking for a way to intergrate paypal.

This is the edit.xml file

<html>

<head>

</head>

<body>

<?php

$file = "images.xml";

$descriptor = fopen ($file, "r");

$contents = fread($descriptor , filesize($file));

$album = '';

$pos1 = strpos($contents, 'javascript:NewWindow');

if ($pos1 == false) {

$pieces = explode('link=""', $contents);

$op = "";

for ($i = 0; $i < count($pieces); $i++) {

$tnpos = strpos($pieces[$i], 'tnPath="');

if ($tnpos !== false)

{

$titpos = strpos($pieces[$i], 'ssp_director/albums/', $tnpos);

$titpos += 20;

$titend = strpos($pieces[$i], '/', $titpos) - $titpos;

$album = substr($pieces[$i], $titpos, $titend);

//echo $album;

}

$halves = explode('<img src="', $pieces[$i]);

$fileid = substr($halves[1], 0, 7);

if (count($halves) > 1) {

$halves[0] .= '<img src="';

$pos1 = strpos($halves[1], 'unavailable');

if ($pos1 == false) {

$halves[1] .= "link=\"javascript:NewWindow=window.open('/Payment_page.php?name=" . $fileid . ".jpg&album=" . $album . "','myWindow','width=300,height=730,toolbar=no,location=no,status=yes,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes');NewWindow.focus(); void(0);\"";

} else {

$halves[1] .= 'link=""';

}

$op .= $halves[0] . $halves[1];

}

fclose($descriptor);

unlink($file);

//$descriptor = fopen ('images.txt', "w");

$descriptor = fopen ($file, "w");

fwrite($descriptor,$op);

echo 'done! ';

echo count($pieces);

echo ' pieces processed';

fclose($descriptor);

} else {

echo 'This file has been processed already';

}

?>

</body>

</html>

And the old xml file created by slideshowpro (filename is images.xml) before running the edit xml command is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</album>

</gallery>

This is the new xml file created by slideshow pro (filename is: images_gallery_2_900_598_0_80_1_80_60_0_50_1_54_41_0.xml):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</album>

</gallery>
