Hello

I have site which is a gallery , on each page there are 6 images, these run over 10 pages and are alphabetical order. My query is should i want to add a new image into the gallery in its correct alhabetical place then i am gonna have a lot of cut and pating to do, so was wondering if there would be a quicker alternative.

my though would be to create a page for each image used in thegallery and just use the include comand as this would be a lot easier.

Just wodring if anyone had an thoughts on this?

thanks

If you were being adventurous, i would strongly suggest converting to a database drive site. Whether thats a prebuilt CMS or your own backend thats your decision.

But what you want would be done automaticaly.

i think thats what i am looking for, would this be an easy process?

[Mr. Matt]

if you know php and mysql well enough then yes it is easy

if you know nothing and have a nice pocket of money then hire someone to do a custom cms for you.

Or of course go forone of the many free CMS's about. Such as mambo, joomla, php nuke, etc etc

would they do what i want? how easy are they to set up?

cheers

well my site is www.retrodeisgner.co.uk

if you go to the gallery you can see the pages i mean.

i just want an easier way to get the images there rather than cutting and pasting the code all the time
