About Notepad's Gallery tutorial

After read the tutorial and messages on the forum, finally I got it working.
You can take a look at my page:
http://mmount-47.umd.edu/gallery
Here are some comments I want to say:
1. If the three PHP files were put in the same folder as the image files, you need to follow the first advice in troubleshooting. Otherwise, ingore it.
2. I need to get rid of the require_once(config.php); sentence in the imgsrc.php file, and redefine a variable for THMBWIDTH. If not, I can not see the thumbnails on the webpage.
3. Notepad should emphasize that full server path should be used when defining the PATH constant.
4. The last one is a question for Notepad. Is it very difficult to make subfolder working or you just leave it to us as an "assignment"?

Thanks for a wonderful tutorial.

that shouldn't be necessary unless you're copying and pasteing the code directly from the site, which is probably giving you a "space" in the config file which shouldn't be there.that is also mentioned in the troubleshooting.no it shouldn't be difficult at all, so long as the subfolder only contains alphabetical characters, numerical numbers and spaces. any other characters and you'll need to add some code to make it allow them.

Thanks for the reply.
I see what you mean of the space in config.php.
For the subfolder question, if I create a subfolder within the 'images' folder, then the symptom is as you said in the tutorial, only the subcatagories is displayed without images.
How did you get it resolved?
Thanks.

ahh yes, that.. i haven't actually messed with that myself but i've been meaning to implement it.. it would require rewriting a portion of the code. i also want to add prev/next links when viewing larger images.

i'll let you know when i get around to it but i'm not gonna promise nothing like, tomorrow.

The code works if I won't mix jpg files and subfolders together under the same folder level. However, I would like to display the folder link as a random picture inside that folder instead of a plain text link. This is the style of www.pbase.com.
Display prev/next link would also be great.

yea i understand what you mean. the whole idea for the tutorial was to be as simple as possible.

it won't be hard to make that stuff happen it's just a matter of finding the time to do it.

alright i got bored and, did a rough hack. example here, source here.

now it's your turn to add a hack and send me the source

[edit: scratch that.. i'm unhappy with this hack already, improving as we speak...]

[edit again: ehh.. that's a little better i guess]

Just an FYI: The link to source is dead (404).

and I LOVE the descriptions... How did you manage to implement those?!

yea i took the source link down, i'm gonna make it accessible another way.. just haven't decided how yet.

btw it now has a fully functional web-based admin section as well.

and the description implementation, i actually took the suggestion of somebody.. you in fact. smartass.

notepad, I did get your phps file before you took it down. At that time, I did not like to use javascript to make the navigation work. Now I see you changed it.
I also did some work over the last weekend, and managed to make the gallery looks like the way I want. You can take a look again at my website. I am sure the code can be improved to make it work for every possible 'bad' scenario.
I sure learned a lot from your code. We can exchange code if you want.
Thanks.

sure, do you have aim? you can catch me online later tonight, otherwise just drop me an e-mail and i'll reply with a zip or sumthin.

the javascript was nasty
