I am pretty new at php so I think I need a little bit more information - can anyone either direct me to a tutorial or a script that I could customize?

But I would rather create a multidimensional array: [code] $data = array (    '0' => array (       'img'   => 'image1.jpg';       'descr' => 'information about this one'     ),    '1' => array (       'img'   => 'image2.jpg';       'descr' => 'information about the second one.'     ), );[/code] serialize() it and store in a txt. It's more accurate. [/quote]

Hi there, I'm setting up an online portfolio and would like to know what the best way to pull up image descriptions would be. I've seen it done before by setting up a text file like this: image1.jpg; information about this one image2.jpg; information about the second one. then when you load image1.jpg onto the page, you also pull up "information about this one" into the page. Right now I just have a navigation set up where the link is to index.php?id=imagename and then I load the appropriate image like so: [code]$first = array('home','about','contact', 'work'); if (in_array($_GET['id'], $first)) {           print '<img src="http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . '/images/' . $_GET['id'] . '.jpg" alt="title" />';[/code] I'm not even sure what the process would be called so I haven't really been able to do research on it. I know I could set up something using line numbers and call the images by numbers that calls up the appropriate line number - but I'd prefer to have it know which line to pull based on the variable $id.
