Help Please...

I am trying to make a little image portfolio for myself. I haven't coded Php in a long time. Basically, I have a Image portfolio with a bunch of thumbnails. There are two links bellow each image. One to see the image in it's own window using a Java Script.

<!--
function openImage40_280(url,name)
{
popupWin = window.open(url,name,"width=40,height=280,status=no,location=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no");
if (window.focus)
{
popupWin.focus();
}
}
//-->

<a href="javascript:openImage512_366('wood_retaintingwall_popup.php','C_P');">Full
Texture</a>

And the other link goes to another webpage that has the image tiling on a website. So for every image i have there are two webpages... one with the image tiles, and one with the image all by itself. The problem is that the site was managable with just a dozen images. Now it's getting to be a big burden. How can I do this dynamically.

I can't do it with a data base. Can I hand variables from one page to another?

-Respectfully,

use image_popup.php?image=filename

and have image_popup.php as

<?php
echo '<img src="' . $_GET['image'] . '">';
?>

you could supply $GET tags to the html links, and pass it to a page like tile.php and have it parse the $GET vars to get the image name and such and apply it to the page....

or make a form and use POST method (which I prefer using) you can see an example of a script similiar to what you are asking (with only 1 option per image though) at http://tekky.xnet.org/filemon (pics of our cat if anyone is wondering)

if you posted more info on the tile page and what not, I'd be more than happy to help you out how I can....

Great... my only question is what are the . before and after $_GET['image'] for. I have a C++ background... so I am only used to Variable.Variable not . something .

www.php.net would be a good resource for you then....

. in PHP is the concatenation operator...

"string 1" . "string 2" in PHP is
similar to "string 1" + "string 2" in C......

the result would be "string 1string 2"
