Reading Files In A Directory

I have a directory full of pictures that I would like to display in a gallery.

Originally I was going to write HTML like this...

	<li>
	    <img src=/photos/img_001.jpg">
	</li>

And then simply copy and paste that for the number of photos I have, and then tweak the code to: img_002.jpg, img_003.jpg, and so on.

I guess that is silly considering that I have over 500 photos to display!

How could I use PHP to go to my /photos/ directory, scan all of the files in that directory, and then grab the file name so I could automate this process?

Sorry, but I haven't written PHP in several years so all of this escapes me! ☹️

Hello,

I have this script that I am trying to work with, it works and It is a basic image viewer/Gallery and it reads from a directory, I have all my images like so 1.png, 2.png, 3.png etc.
They show up just wonderful and does what I want it to do. but I cannot get it to read the directory in numeric form. Here is my code that I am working with

<?php
require_once("data/connect.php");

// set the absolute path to the directory containing the images
define ('IMGDIR', 'birthday/');
// same but for www
define ('WEBIMGDIR', 'birthday/');
// set session name for slideshow "cookie"
define ('SS_SESSNAMEB', 'slideshow_sessb');
// global error variable
$err = '';
// start img session
session_name(SS_SESSNAMEB);
session_start();
// init slideshow class
$ss = new slideshow($err);
if (($err = $ss->init()) != '')
{
header('HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error');

exit();
}
// get image files from directory
$ss->get_images();
// set variables, done.

Simple Image Gallery Reading From Directory - Random / Numerical Placement

I have a very simple piece of code to create a grid based gallery. The thumbnails are loaded from a single directory and are name 1.jpg... 2.jpg... 3.jpg etc

At the moment the images appear to be loaded in randomly. I want them to load in numerically in terms of their filename. I know I may need to use 'sort' or 'natsort' but where in the code?

Thanks for any help you can give me

Code: [Select]
<?

$images = "Images/Bag Thumbs/"; # Location of small versions

$big = "ruxxwomens.php?id="; # Location of big versions (assumed to be a subdir of above)

if ($handle = opendir($images)) {
while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
if ($file != "." && $file != ".." && $file != rtrim($big,"/")) {
$files[] = $file;
}
}
closedir($handle);
}

$colCtr = 0;
echo '<table width="800" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tr>';
foreach($files as $file)

Anyway Of Allowing File Upload And Directory Creation On A File System?

Similar Tutorials

View Content

I havent included the whole title as it wouldnt let me but I was wondering if someone could help me on this?

I know this is possible as torrentflux caters for this but unsure of where to start.

I dont want to allow file or directory uploads or creation in my /etc/php.ini file (this is turned off).

Yet then torrentflux allows me to link a torrent from an external source (using legal downloads of course ) but then it uploads it on my server and creates folders on a per user basis.

How is this possible can someone give me some pointers please?

I look forward to any replies,
Jeremy.

Reading Variables From Another File

Similar Tutorials

View Content

So here is what I have going.

#1 - My weather station software processes a file and enters variables and then uploads it as a php file.
#2 - Currently the station also just uploads every file to the site and enters the data in the html, but I would rather have it only upload this one file and the other pages grab data from it and print it out. I have a few php scrips in there to preform certain functions (if temp <= 32 it echos that data in blue and so on) but would rather make most of it php so I have less files being uploaded every 5 minutes.

This is what the station sends to the web, but I have no idea how to get the other pages to read it and input the variables from it.

I know this word exists only on one of the pages above (http://www.mercurymagazines.com/pr1/101/101396).

When http://www.mercurymagazines.com/pr1/101/101396 appears last in the list located in source.txt the programs WORKS.
When http://www.mercurymagazines.com/pr1/101/101396 appears in any other position such as first, or second, the program does NOT work.

My head is sore from banging against my desk. Any assistance would be appreciated.

<?php

$file_source = fopen("source.txt", "r");
$file_target = fopen("targets.txt", "w");

while (!feof($file_source) ) {
$url = fgets($file_source);

echo '<br>'.$url;

$raw_text = file_get_contents($url);

mb_regex_encoding( "utf-8" );
$words = mb_split( ' +', $raw_text );

foreach ($words as $uniques) {
echo $uniques;
if ($uniques == 'FREE') {
   fwrite($file_target, $url);

   }
}

}

?>

i have this script where the user enters their name and their favorite quotes. It adds their favorite quotes and their names to quotes.txt and prints out their name and their quotes on view_quote.php. I need to use a foreach() loop to print out the name and the quotes, but I'm confused about how to set it up. Here's my files.

if ( !empty($_POST['quote']) && ($_POST['quote'] != 'Enter your quotation here.'
) ){ // Need some thing to write.

if (is_writable($file)) { // Confirm that the file is writable.

file_put_contents($file, $_POST['quote'] . PHP_EOL, FILE_APPEND | LOCK_EX); // Write the data.
file_put_contents($file, $_POST['name'] . PHP_EOL, FILE_APPEND | LOCK_EX);
// Print a message:
print '<p>Your quotation has been stored.</p>';

} else { // Could not open the file.
print '<p style="color: red;">Your quotation could not be stored due to a system error.</p>';
}

} else { // Failed to enter a quotation.
print '<p style="color: red;">Please enter a quotation!</p>';
}

} // End of submitted IF.

// Leave PHP and display the form:
?>

<p>Name:<input type="text" name="name"/><br />
<textarea name="quote" rows="5" cols="30">Enter your quotation here.</textarea><br />

// Pick a random item:
$rand = rand(0, ($n - 1));

// Print the quotation:
print '<p>' . trim($data[$rand]) . '</p>';

?>

</html>and the quotes.txt file is blank until the user enters their names and quotes. Im trying to get this done kind of quick so any help would be awesome.

My user needs me to update the database on their server from data contained in a text file but do not want me to upload the text file to the server but rather read the file from wherever it exists. Across the intranet.
Uploading the file means that whomsoever needs to do this update requires write permission to a folder on the server & my user does not want that.
Suggestions on how I should solve this problem would be greatly appreciated.
BTW My code works fine if I upload the file and do the update in place on the server.

Reading A Menu From Database Or File?

Where is the best to store the list of categories and menu? Obviously it is better to reduce mysql queries. From a plain list in file, we can create desirable list (menu) from an array. This is quite faster (though SELECT from an indexed table is fast too; but I do know if it is as fast as reading from a php file). Any idea how to code this to create the menu faster ?

Hello again. I'm trying to load data from a Facebook Share Data XML file and then displaying them in a WordPress plugin. Here's my code so far:

// Fetch Share Count Data

function fb_button () {
$fbshareUrl = urlencode(get_permalink($post->ID));
$fbshareTitle = urlencode($post->post_title);
$fbLinkStats = simplexml_load_file('http://api.facebook.com/restserver.php?method=links.getStats&urls='.$shareUrl);

$fb_params =
        '?u=' . $fbshareUrl .
        '&t=' . $fbshareTitle .
        ''
        ;

// Vertical Facebook Button

       $fb_share = '
<div class="fsbsharer" id="fb">
<a href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php' . $fb_params . '"  class="facebookShare">

<span class="fb_share_size_Small fb_share_count_wrapper">
<span></span>

<span class="fb_share_count_nub_top "></span>
<span class="fb_share_count  fb_share_count_top">

<div class="fb_share_count_inner">
'. $fbLinkStats->link_stat->total_count .'
</div>

</div>
<span style="cursor:pointer;" class="FBConnectButton FBConnectButton_Small"><span class="FBConnectButton_Text">Share</span></span>
</a>
</div>
';

       echo $fb_share;
    }

This code works for everything except the title and the share count. I can fix the title myself but the share count isn't working.

When I use this in plain HTML:
<?php echo $fbLinkStats->link_stat->total_count.''; ?>
it works fine, but when I combine it all into another function to echo, it no longer works properly.

Thanks.

Hi, I have this text file with a 123mb size
then i ran my simple script to read it and render it via browser

$fh = fopen('worldcitiespop.txt',r);
while(!feof($fh))
{
$content = fgets($fh);
echo $content."<br />";
}
fclose($fh);

I was expecting the 'whole' output via browser but then it didn't show "all"
because when I opened the text file via a wordpad, it's really huge..
can you tell me what's wrong with my script ?...( btw, there's no max execution time error at all )
