Javascript - Displaying all pictures from a folder

Hello there,

I have cobbled together the following site using the Google Maps API and would like to know how i can return all my photos from a folder with the same name as a marker id, when i click on a particular marker of my choice?

www globexposure net/index_basic.php

for example,

onclick marker where id=31
all photos from /travel_pics/31/ would be returned

...not sure if this could be called from my JS or if i had to do it server-side with my PHP...

Thank you for your time and attention

I can do it with PHP and ASP, no idea with JS, Java or Javascript (even though I would use javascript to call it)

Hey ask me, I have no clue what I do most of the time.

Here is a script that can get the images from any folder:
Call it getpics.php

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

function returnimages($dirname="uploads") //folder part remember to change

{

$pattern="\.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|bmp)$";

$files = array();

$i = 0;

if($handle = opendir($dirname)) {

while(false !== ($file = readdir($handle))){

if(eregi($pattern, $file)){

}

}



closedir($handle);

}

return($files);

}

returnimages();

?>

Next page, the page that shows the images
Let's call it showpics.php

PHP Code:


		
			
//Here you set your choice of file type

<script type="text/javascript" src="getpics.php"></script>

Pretty simple stuff, google answers questions, amazing stuff!

Cheers
