Drw results to a photo gallery - 8/16/2008 9:42:03
I have 10 photos in a database table that are links to the image file on the web site. I can use the drw to post the photo results in a basic table as thumbnails, but I would like to post them to some sort of nicer photo gallery whether flash or the one in front page 2003.
Is this possible or has anyone successfully done it before. I have checked this forum pretty well and even hotscripts.com with not much luck.
I just want the results to show a little better than the same old boxy results of a table, nothing crazy just a little nicer.

How 'bout instead of placing them in a table in the DRW, instead place them in variables. Then response.write them wherever you wish.
Or you could search on "lightbox". Have you tried that? Lightbox that is?

The first one sounds better, I did look at lightbox and seems a little more complex than what I need. I do need the photos to load in the results page along with the other information I'm querying also if that makes a difference.
Is there some tutorial for response write code. Can you give me a idea how that works!
Thank you very much

Well, I'm not really talking about any sort of canned package at all. What I "might" do depending on my skill level is to set up variables or an array to store the href to the image. Then you could place the image in any arrangement you want and in any JS or whatever you want.
For instance, if I want 10 images, I would do something like this at the beginning before any DRW:
<%ReDim myImages(9)%>
Which would bild us an ASP array of 10 elements (arrays are zero-based meaning the first one is 0 and not 1).
Now, 'inside' the DRW where you would normally display the image from a database with something like this:
<img src="<%=FP_FieldVal(fp_rs,"myImage")%>">
you would now do something like this:
<%myImages(fp_iCount-1)=FP_FieldVal(fp_rs,"emailPass")%>
and what that would do is store the image filename in the array. See "fp_iCount" is the item number of the DB record in the loop and to match with our array item, we subtract 1.
So now, anywhere on a page we want to use that image file name, we use <%=myImages(n)%> where 'n' is a number from 0 to 9. Now my comfort level is quite high with arrays and ASP but if you're only experience is with the DRW, this may not be what you're looking for.
Does that help any?

Yes that gives me some ideas, thank you. I will play with it this week and see what I come up with.
Thanks again
