Hi all,
If I have a comma separated text file of the form:
filename.ext,thumbnail width,thumbnail height,img width,img height
for example:

inside3.jpg,100,75,640,480
over.jpg,100,75,640,480
stairs.jpg,100,64,640,410
tower.jpg,78,100,320,410
trellis.jpg,78,100,320,410
waterfall.jpg,100,75,640,480

then what is the best way to grab the next and previous images if I am
displaying, for example, "tower.jpg".  (I'm using PHP, but I can work with perl
too.)  Thanks!

hmmm... dunno php, but try this in perl:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

$current = shift;
$prev = '';
$next = '';
while (<>) {
  ($name) = split /,/;
  if ($name eq $current) {
    $next = <>;
    ($next) = split /,/, $next;
last;
  }
  $prev = $name;
}

this is untested, but if you put this in a file (say, call it match.pl),
and run it as "./match.pl stairs.jpg file.lst", it should end up with
$next = "tower.jpg" and $prev = "over.jpg".  This doesn't check for
special cases (like the name matches the first or last line), but should
give you an idea...

HTH,

:)

(...) I dunno PHP either, but it's very easy to learn as you go along. (...) Thanks once again, Dan. I should have thought of that myself. And it's easy to translate into just about any language. --Bram (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
