I'm quite new to PHP so please spoone feed me here.
I'm trying to generate a list of URLs from a directory to feed into a
slideshow but I'm completely stumped as to how to do it. I've been
given the following code to generate a list of 15 URLs with the right
extension but what do I do with it now?
[code]
<?php
define('IN_COPPERMINE', true);
require('include/init.inc.php');
$xml = '<image_folder></image_folder>';
if ($FORBIDDEN_SET != "") $FORBIDDEN_SET = "AND $FORBIDDEN_SET";
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM {$CONFIG['TABLE_PICTURES']} AS p
WHERE filename LIKE '%.jpg' $FORBIDDEN_SET ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 15");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$type = 'normal';
$xml .= "".get_pic_url($row, $type) ."";
}
echo $xml;
?>
[/code]
That bit displays a nice list of URLs for me but I need to feed them
into this second script where $URL would be the one of the URLs
selected in order from the list generated from the first script.
[code]
<?php
//include slideshow.php in your script
include "slideshow.php";
//add 15 slides
for ( $i=0; $i<15; $i++ ){
$slideshow[ 'slide' ][ $i ] = array ( 'url' => $URL );
}
//send the slideshow data
Send_Slideshow_Data ( $slideshow );
?>
[/code]
As I said, I'm very new to this so I m probably barking up totally the
wrong tree.
I'm also running out of hair trying to work out how to do this.
