Listing/posting many pictures

[RSTWORK]

I use Dreamweaver MX for editing my company's internal website. I have been tasked with posting a large number of pictures relating to some events that have happened recently.

My question is there a way to use dreamweaver to link to a folder that has the pictures saved to them, instead of posting each picture individually??


Thx.

You can have all pictures shown automatically using php. All you need to do is place a picture in the directory, along with a php page with the following code (pamper the html formating to your liking):

PHP Code:

 <?php  
 $files = array();  
 $dir = opendir('.');  
 while(($file = readdir($dir)) !== false)  
 {  
  if($file !== '.' && $file !== '..' && !is_dir($file))  
  {  
    $files[] = $file;
  }
 }  
 closedir($dir);  
 sort($files);  
 echo("<table style='text-align: left; width: 90%;' border='1' cellpadding='2' cellspacing='2'> <tbody>");
  for($i=0; $i<count($files); $i++)  
 {  
 
echo "<tr> <td><img src=$files[$i]><br> $files[$i] </td> </tr>";
 }  

echo "</tbody> </table>";

 ?>

OK in order to do this properly and if I read it correctly, I'd have to install a PHP application on my web server. I was hoping not to have to do this. (call me lazy.) It maybe easy I am not sure.

What I am looking for is a very easy/simple way to link to a shared network folder,which has all the 90 some odd pictures in it.

(little background --
this is a very basic intranet site. That is used for posting annoucements and word/pdf files for the company. )

maybe I am missing something & should just not do this because I don't have the apitude for it.

if you don't want to use php (or any other scripting) then the only way I can think of is allowing directory browsing, which may be a security risk.
You might alleviate that risk somewhat by passwording that directory access in Apache's .htaccess file.

Under that scenario the users will see a list of files as links.
