I am trying to build a table that is a mix of XML/XSLT and a need to provide calls to the file-system for some data. Basically, I am building photo albums on the fly. Some of the data for each album is stored in an XML file, but then I would like to go into each directory of photos and actually calculate the number of photos in the directory and the timestamp of the most recent photo. Is there a way to do this with PHP or do I have to use Java (which seems like significant overkill)?
Thanks, Darren
PHP is a very suitable language for building photo-albums.
In fact, you may find something you can use that is finished, possibly with more functionality than you even thought of at www.sourceforge.com
Search for Photo Album and maybe PHP.
