README

Hi. Thanks for trying this out. The little app consists of four files you wil need

photo.desc
index.php [renamed sample.php for easy browsing, you can rename this]
photostyle.css
photo_func.php [also available as photo_func]

There are also two sample images loaded so you can see how it all fits together in a nice easy package.

To use this application:

- put all the files into one directory with any photos you want to use

- alter photo.desc to include your header [line one] and then the photo name, the | symbol, and then your photo description. The photo description can be any length but must not contain ANY HARD RETURNS because this is what tells the little app to go to the next photo. be especially careful about this with the last photo in the series, it's easy to leave a hanging hard return that you don't even see.

- if you want, change the stylesheet to be not so ugly

- you may need to change your server settings to see the "index.php" file as a default. this can be dfone at the server level or using an .htaccess file if your ISP supports those.

This comes with no warrantee, etc etc etc. Let me know if you have simple questions. Complicated questions are probably out of my range of expertise.
