I"m really confused
am 18.11.2007 22:14:39 von phill.luckhurst
I haven't a clue with PHP so please spoon feed me.
In the middle of a script that I have been looking at there is this
code which I have extracted to run on it's own
include "flashthumb.php";
?>
>
....
?>
Now flashthumb.php generates a list of filenames in the variable
$url[1], $url[2], $url[3] etc
how would I use those in the myshow line instead of
'vote.jpg','thumb_rar.jpg','thumb_wav.jpg'
or am I totally barking mad and getting it wrong?

Suppose the value of $url[1] is the one that corresponds to 'my_slideshow'
and holds that value. Then you would use
instead of 'my_Slideshow'.
It allows you, for example, to initialize fields in the middle of html text.

I don't think I explained myself properly or I don't quite understand
what you mean.
The code above generates a slideshow from the images listed.
$url is an exploded array generated by flashthumb.pbp of filenames
picked from a directory
so $url[1] would be vote.jpg
$url[2] would be rar.jpg
$url[3] would be wav.jpg
etc
except flashthumb selects random jpegs.
The line
myShow = new Slideshow('my_slideshow', {hu: 'images/', images:
['vote.jpg','thumb_rar.jpg','thumb_wav.jpg']});
inserts those images into a slideshow script
so what is needed is something along the lines of
myShow = new Slideshow('my_slideshow', {hu: 'images/', images:
['$url[1]','$url[2]','$url[3]']});
but that obviously is not the correct syntax to insert those values
I really must learn how to code.

So you need to quote the array values, then concatenate them all with
commas...
foreach($url as $u)
{
$quotedurl[] = "'" . $u . "'";
}
$concatenatedstuff = implode(',',$quotedurl);
echo "myShow = new Slideshow('my_slideshow', {hu: 'images/', images:
[$concatenatedstuff]});";
?>

Yep...

Woo hoo,
That's done the trick. Almost
The script works fine if I manually create a list of images but when
created with $concantatedstuff it runs once and does not loop. Wierd,
I'm sure I'll work it out eventually.
You can see it running here.

include "flashthumb.php";
print "

print "";
print "";
print "";
print "";
print "
height=3D'300' />";
print "
foreach($url as $u)
{
$quotedurl[] =3D "'" . $u . "'";
}
$concatenatedstuff =3D implode(',',$quotedurl);
print "";
