Say i have a directory with loads of images, with no particular names, and i want to have php scan the directory for thumbnails (blah_small.gif), and then put, say 40 on one page, 40 on the next etc. They would probably be in alphabetical order. I could pass a variable "from" to the page to determine the start image.

How would i do this? I need to get php to scan the image directory and possibly load all the filenames into an array or something.

Thanks for any help in advance.

i was bored, so i made something simular for PHP4. it's at http://www.weeder.f2s.com/thumb.php.txt if you want to use it, or, if you use PHP3, get ideas from.

To pass variables from one page to the next just do...
www.domain.com/page.html?offset=40

Then you can increment the offset every page. If you plan on using strings, you might want to see urlencode and urldecode too.
