image selection from directory list?

Report · Mar 16, 2007

Hi, I'm working with ASP/VBScript.

I'm creating an INSERT form and I'd like to be able to allow people to view
a list of images held in a specific directory on the server. When they
click on the image they want, this pre-fills a form field with the file
name. Is there an extension for this? I'm struggling to find anything that
isn't ASP.NET.

Thanks.
Nath.

Bit of digging around and I've found the following:

<%
Set MyDirectory=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set MyFiles=MyDirectory.GetFolder(Server.MapPath("../graphics/tmbs/"))
For each filefound in MyFiles.files
%>

<% =filefound.Name %>
<br />

<% Next %>

This gives me a list of file names within that directory, similar to the
following:
image1.gif
image2.gif
image3.gif

So, I have altered that code further to be:

<%
Set MyDirectory=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set MyFiles=MyDirectory.GetFolder(Server.MapPath("../graphics/tmbs/"))
For each filefound in MyFiles.files
%>

<img src="../graphics/tmbs/<% =filefound.Name %>" />
<br />

<% Next %>

...and this is neatly displaying the images in a list. Hurrah!
How would I alter the above code in order to show 3 images in a row though,
like a Horizontal repeat region?

Thanks.
