i founds tuts on how to limit number of files/images to show on a page and make a next page link for databases, but how can i make it to limit the # of images per page when the images are in a folder?

pagination was one of the most complicated things i learned for php and now you just made it even more complicated..now i'll have to test things out for this

Try using the SQL - LIMIT You can Limit 0, 30 Then LIMIT 31,60 And so on

[HaloprO]

He doesn't want to use SQL, He said he wants to have it browse a directory ie: images/
And say there are 30 in there, and he wants 10 per page, 3 pages, 10 on each.

Hi, I wrote a script for just this purpose. Hope it helps

<?php 
function pageDirectory($dir){ 

            $start = isset($_GET['start']) ? $_GET['start'] : 0; 
            
            # grab files from directory/// 
            $files=array(); 
            if ($handle = opendir($dir)) { 
                while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { 
                    if ($file != "." && $file != ".." && !is_dir($file)) { 
                       $files[] = $file; 
                    } 
                } 
                closedir($handle); 
            } 
            $dpp = 10; 
            $total = count($files); 
            $req= round($total/10); 

            for($i=$start; $i<=($start+$dpp)-1; $i++) { 
                    if($i <=$total-1){ 
                    $fz = filesize('../i/hi_res/'.$files[$i]); 
                    echo '<a href="download.php?im=../i/hi_res/'. $files[$i] .'">'. ($i+1) . ' &raquo; '. $files[$i] .'</a> (' 
                    . format_size($fz) . 
                    ')<hr>'; 
                    } 
            } 


                echo   '<a href="?action='.strtolower($area).'&start=0">First</a> | '; 
                    for($x=0;$x<=$req-1; $x++) { 
                echo  '<a href="?action='.strtolower($area).'&start='. ($x*10) . '">'. ($x+1) . '</a> | '; 
                    } 
                echo  '<a href="?action='.strtolower($area).'&start='. ($total-10) . '">Last</a> | '; 
}//end function 

/** use like this: 
$dir = '/home'; 
pageDirectory($dir); 
**/ 
?>
