I have a large number of photos I want to stick into a website, each photo on a seperate page (click a link and the page appears with the photo). I have created a template of the page layout but I don't want to spend hours inserting each photo in seperatly and renaming the page after the filename.

Is there a batch process that will do this for me? Say pointing the program at the file with the photos and giving it the page template and let it insert the photos and create the pages on automatically?

I am using Dreamweaver 8 in HTML

Can anyone point me to some good text guides on how to use dreamweaver as well?

Thanks

Could you not make it dynamic and simply pass a variable to the page from the querystring instead? Then you'd only need the one page.

To sound really thick how would i do that? That would be useful as it would save time and lots of space.


Beanspout isn't that just a piece of gallery software? I already have the thumbnail pages ready, I would just like to find an automated way of inserting all the larger pictures into a template page so I dont have to insert them by hand. :)

Unfortunatly I can't understand most of that. :( Is there anywhere that can explain it fully showing the editable bits, which parts need to be put on a server etc?

Also what would I put in the thumbnail that links to the page? This?

PHP:
<img src="_large_images/image_<?php echo $_GET["img"]; ?>.jpg">
