LinuxQuestions.org - PHP - Dynamically listing pictures

Hi! I have a motion activated webcam that takes pictures for a little country house I have. It uploads the pics to my server, sitting in a domain's www directory. I can just visit the website every day to make sure the house hasn't burned down!

Sometimes, when it's windy, there are lots of false alarms, and I get a ton of pictures. Rather than having all of them always displayed on the index page, how can I write the PHP code to show only, say, 30 pictures per page, with the "next page" option, which will then also just show 30 more on that page (and continuing like that for all the pictures)? I have searched online for some coding help, but I just couldn't seem to find instructions or code for what I was looking for.

Thank you for any help!!!

Here's what I have now (please no insults on my inefficient code! Or maybe, comments and suggestions, but not too harsh!) :

Code:



<?php

include("/home/httpd/vhosts/MYDOMAIN.com/httpdocs/upstate/ping_driveway.php");

?>

<br>

<?php

include("/home/httpd/vhosts/MYDOMAIN.com/httpdocs/upstate/ping_den.php");

?>





<?php



$dir = "./";

$dirden = "./den/";

$fd = opendir("$dir");

$fdden = opendir("$dirden");



echo "<hr><hr><b><u><h2>DRIVEWAY</h2></u></b>";



while($entry = readdir($fd)) {

if(eregi(".(exe|zip|jpg)$", $entry)) {

echo "<a href=\"$dir$entry\"><img src=\"$dir$entry\" border=\"0\">" .

"</a>\n";

}

}

closedir($fd);

echo "<br><br><hr><hr><b><u><h2>DEN</h2></u></b>";

while($entryden = readdir($fdden)) {

if(eregi(".(exe|zip|jpg)$", $entryden)) {

echo "<a href=\"$dirden$entryden\"><img src=\"$dirden$entryden\" border=\"0\">" .

"</a>\n";

}

}



closedir($fdden);

?>
