I'm having trouble setting up a while loop, and I think I'm creating
overlapping brackets. I'm trying to set up a script to check for up to 3
images to display on a profile page, then put a notice at the bottom. My
initial efforts either get a blank page or the notice appearing a few
hundred times. Below is my original (working) script to display a single
image. After that is my attempts at adding a while loop. Is there a better
way of doing this??

Thanks,
Wm


Original/working version:

//start imagename function
$imagename = "$lastname$firstname";
$imagename = str_replace(" ", "","$imagename");
//end imagename function
//$filename = '../images/$imagename.jpg';
$image_info =
@getimagesize("http://www.mydomain.org/images/$imagename.jpg");
$type=$image_info[2];
if ($type == 0) {
// file_exists(realpath($filename)); {
print " ";
} else {
print "<IMG SRC=\"../images/$imagename.jpg\"><BR>";
print "<FONT color=\"#000000\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"
size=\"1\">
&copy; $firstname $lastname. All Rights Reserved.</FONT>";
}




Trying to add a loop:

//start imagename function
//begin new code
$imagenum=1;
while ($imagenum<4) {
//end new code
$imagename = "$lastname$firstname$imagenum";
$imagename = str_replace(" ", "","$imagename");
//end imagename function
//$filename = '../images/$imagename.jpg';
$image_info =
@getimagesize("http://www.mydomain.org/images/$imagename.jpg");
$type=$image_info[2];
if ($type == 0) {
// file_exists(realpath($filename)); {
print "&nbsp;";
} else {
print "<IMG SRC=\"../images/$imagename.jpg\"><BR>";
$imagenum = $imagenum++;
} // end while loop
print "<FONT color=\"#000000\" face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\"
size=\"1\">
&copy; $firstname $lastname. All Rights Reserved.</FONT>";
}
