Comic archive help

[Nawt]

Hey,

I'm trying to put up a comic archive, and I came into a problem.

I follow the directions exactly, and the only thing I get is a red X and "> appearing on the page.

Here's the coding.

This is the link to the path:

<?include("comics/"); ?>

And here's the coding for the archive:

<p align="center" class="style1">LATEST COMIC</p>
<p align="center">
<img src=<* print("\"{$directoryComics}{$comic[$strip_id]}\" {$dimensions[3]}"); *>">
<br>
| <? if($strip_id != 0) {print("<a href=\"?strip_id=0\">FIRST</a>");} ?> |


<? if($strip_id > 0) {$x = $strip_id-1; print("<a href=\"?strip_id=$x\">PREVIOUS</a>");} ?>  |

<? if( (($strip_id+1) < sizeof($comic)) && validDate($comic[($strip_id+1)])) {$x = $strip_id+1; print("<a href=\"?strip_id=$x\">NEXT</a>");} ?>  |


<? if( (validDate($comic[($strip_id+1)])) && ($strip_id != sizeof($comic)-1)) {print("<a href=\"?\">LATEST</a>");} ?>  |

Replace "<" with "<?php" and ">" with "?>", and all occurrances of "<?" with "<?php".

It didn't work.

The X red is now gone and the page is now showing just <img src="" "> .

In what fashion it didn't work?

Try this:

$dim_3 = $directoryComics . $comic[$strip_id] . '\\' . $dimensions[3];
echo '<p align="center" class="style1">LATEST COMIC</p>' .
     '<p align="center">' .
     '<img src="\\' . $dim_3 . '" />' .
     '<br />|';
if ($strip_id != 0) {
    echo '<a href="?strip_id=0">FIRST</a> |'; 
}
if ($strip_id > 0) {
    $x = $strip_id - 1;
    echo '<a href="?strip_id=' . $x . '">PREVIOUS</a> |';
}
if ((($strip_id + 1) > sizeof($comic)) && validDate($comic[$strip_id + 1])) {
    $x = $strip_id + 1;
    echo '<a href="?strip_id=' . $x . '">NEXT</a> |';
}
if (($strip_id != (sizeof($comic) - 1)) && validDate($comic[$strip_id + 1])) {
    echo '<a href="?">LATEST</a> |'
}

It's untested, so you might have to work with it.

What are you putting it on your local PC or a web server and do you have PHP installed?

[Nawt]

On my web server. Yes, I have PHP installed.

As if now, my page has brought up all the text that is meant to be on the page, but now some of the code is showing.

I'm still continuing to test it.
