I would like to re-display the random image from my gallery on other pages within a: my forum and b: an independant website, is this possible or am I clutching at straws?

Need help with this!

I have downloaded the code:
**/

// http://www.hovegallery.co.uk/Gallery
define('ROOT_PATH', './4images/');

include(ROOT_PATH.'config.php');
include(ROOT_PATH.'includes/db_mysql.php');
include(ROOT_PATH.'includes/constants.php');

$site_db = new Db($db_host, $db_user, $db_password, $db_name);
function is_remote($file_name) {
return (preg_match('#^https?\\:\\/\\/[a-z0-9\-]+\.([a-z0-9\-]+\.)?[a-z]+#i', $file_name)) ? 1 : 0;
}

$sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) as total_images
FROM ".IMAGES_TABLE." a, ".CATEGORIES_TABLE." b
WHERE a.image_active=1
AND a.cat_id = b.cat_id
AND b.auth_viewcat=".AUTH_ALL."
AND b.auth_viewimage=".AUTH_ALL."
";
$row = $site_db->query_firstrow($sql);
$total_images = $row['total_images'];

mt_srand((double)microtime() * 1000000);
$number = ($total_images > 1) ? mt_rand(0, $total_images - 1) : 0;

$sql = "SELECT a.image_id, a.cat_id, a.image_name, a.image_active, a.image_thumb_file, a.image_comments
FROM ".IMAGES_TABLE." a, ".CATEGORIES_TABLE." b
WHERE a.image_active=1
AND a.cat_id = b.cat_id
AND b.auth_viewcat=".AUTH_ALL."
AND b.auth_viewimage=".AUTH_ALL."
LIMIT $number, 1";
$row = $site_db->query_firstrow($sql);
$image_id = $row['image_id'];
$cat_id = $row['cat_id'];
$image_name = $row['image_name'];
$image_comments = $row['image_comments'];
$thumb_src = (is_remote($row['image_thumb_file'])) ? $row['image_thumb_file'] : ROOT_PATH.THUMB_DIR."/".$cat_id."/".$row['image_thumb_file'];

echo "<a href=\"".ROOT_PATH."details.php?image_id=$image_id\"><img src=\"".$thumb_src."\" border=\"0\" alt=\"$image_name\"></a> \n";
echo "$image_name \n";
echo "Comments: $image_comments \n";
?>

But wherever I try to implement it only so far produces errors or displays the code on the page with no image, what am I missing?

Here is where I want random image to display, somewhere within homepage. http://www.hovedogs.co.uk

First of all.......you can only incluse this to a PHP-Page. So if your page is a htm or html .......rename it to *.php and than include.

// http://www.hovegallery.co.uk/Gallery
define('ROOT_PATH', './4images/');

And this is not right. Try this:

Code: [Select]

define('ROOT_PATH', '../Gallery/');

The code is ok. I have copy this to my folder and open it and it works fine:

http://www.terradreams.de/gallery/random1.php

Try to upload your Random_image.php (like it is) to your Gallery Folder and open it in your browser

http://www.hovedogs.co.uk/Gallery/Random_image.php

If it works, you can include it in every PHP-page on your site.

V@no · « **Reply #10 on:** April 02, 2003, 12:33:20 AM »

the problem is in define('ROOT_PATH', '../Gallery/');
since u put your random.php file in root dir on your server, u must use just one dot: define('ROOT_PATH', './Gallery/');
two dots (../) means that one dir behind.

I think I understand now!!

Will let you know how I get on, thanks for all the help with this...very grateful

swifter_uk · « **Reply #12 on:** April 02, 2003, 01:27:41 AM »

One small question...

V@no · « **Reply #13 on:** April 02, 2003, 01:44:27 AM »
