Dynamic Folder Issue

Dynamic Folder Issue

When I upload through the CMS I've created, the photo gallery dynamically creates a folder to upload to and store all photos associated with that gallery. I'm using Developer Toolbox to create thumbnails right now, which dynamically creates the folder "thumbnails" within the each gallery's folder: gallery/thumbnails/thumb.jpg, while the large image lies in the root: gallery/. When managing the galleries, I can delete one photo or the entire gallery, and both ways delete the associated thumbnail.

I like the image resizer thus far, but first glance, it looks like I can't set up in the same fashion as Developer Toolbox. I tried directing the cache folder to the dynamic folder by replacing "image_cache" with "assets/gallery/galleryname/" with "galleryname" an php echo statement:

<?php
echo(getCachedResizedImageHTML(ob_get_clean(), "assets/gallery/<?php echo $row_rsGalleries['ID']; ?>/", "crop", "", false));
} // End Cached Resized Image: ImageCacheInstance_1288282423723
?>

Image resizer doesn't like this, plus when I do it the "image_cache" way, it creates a long path that seems redundant and doesn't just store it in the "image_cache" folder.

I can probably work around it but will be limited in maintaing it. If I delete a gallery/image, the cahced thumbnail will remain.

If there is a workaround, please let me know.

the code should be:
[php]<?php
echo(getCachedResizedImageHTML(ob_get_clean(), "assets/gallery/".$row_rsGalleries['ID']."/", "crop", "", false));
} // End Cached Resized Image: ImageCacheInstance_1288282423723
?>[php]

That works. Thanks for the catch. Still having the error message issue from the other post. If I delete the folders that are dynamically created to hold the thumbnails, I can refresh the browser and they show up. But, if I refresh again after that, I receive this:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: scandir() in /home/content/d/m/h/dmheltzel/html/webassist/caching/CachedResize_Image.php on line 262

my guess is that when you refresh the recordset does not have a result anymore.

can you send a copy of your page please so i can look at the entire code.

That shouldn't be the case. It is a general query that requires no filter. Below is the dynamic portion of the code:

<?php require_once( "webassist/caching/CachedResize_Image.php" ); ?>
<?php require_once('Connections/Celebrity.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")
{
if (PHP_VERSION < 6) {
$theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;
}

$theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);

switch ($theType) {
case "text":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "long":
case "int":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
break;
case "double":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? doubleval($theValue) : "NULL";
break;
case "date":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "defined":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
break;
}
return $theValue;
}
}

mysql_select_db($database_Celebrity, $Celebrity);
$query_rsGalleries = "SELECT * FROM tbl_gallerycategories ORDER BY CategoryName ASC";
$rsGalleries = mysql_query($query_rsGalleries, $Celebrity) or die(mysql_error());
$row_rsGalleries = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsGalleries);
$totalRows_rsGalleries = mysql_num_rows($rsGalleries);
?>


<div class="mediarow">
<?php do { ?>
<div class="mediaitem"><a href="GalleryDetail.php?Category=<?php echo $row_rsGalleries['ID']; ?>">
<?php
if(TRUE){ // Begin Cached Resized Image: ImageCacheInstance_1288294863327
ob_start();
?>
<img name="thumb" width="109" height="109" alt="<?php echo $row_rsGalleries['PhotoAlt']; ?>" class="mediaimage" src="assets/gallery/<?php echo $row_rsGalleries['ID']; ?>/<?php echo $row_rsGalleries['Photo']; ?>" />
<?php
echo(getCachedResizedImageHTML(ob_get_clean(), "assets/gallery/".$row_rsGalleries['ID']."/", "crop", "", false));
} // End Cached Resized Image: ImageCacheInstance_1288294863327
?>
</a></div>
<?php } while ($row_rsGalleries = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsGalleries)); ?>
</div>


<?php
mysql_free_result($rsGalleries);
?>

FYI...I took out the dynamic path to the image and made it static. I refreshed like in the other instances and I didn't receive the error message. So, the dynamic path is causing a problem?

maybe try changing this line:
[php]echo(getCachedResizedImageHTML(ob_get_clean(), "assets/gallery/".$row_rsGalleries['ID']."/", "crop", "", false));[php]


to:

php:
echo(getCachedResizedImageHTML(ob_get_clean(), "assets/gallery/".($row_rsGalleries['ID']), "crop", "", false));




also what is your php server version?


and can you send a link where i can see the problem.

I tried your alteration to the code with same results.

PHP Version: PHP 4.x
Test link: Test.php

It shows the photo and gives me an error message. If I refresh it, the photo disappears and I get a different error message.

Code on Test.php:


<?php require_once( "webassist/caching/CachedResize_Image.php" ); ?>
<?php require_once('Connections/Celebrity.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")
{
if (PHP_VERSION < 6) {
$theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;
}

$theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);

switch ($theType) {
case "text":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "long":
case "int":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
break;
case "double":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? doubleval($theValue) : "NULL";
break;
case "date":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "defined":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
break;
}
return $theValue;
}
}

mysql_select_db($database_Celebrity, $Celebrity);
$query_rsGalleries = "SELECT * FROM tbl_gallerycategories ORDER BY CategoryName ASC";
$rsGalleries = mysql_query($query_rsGalleries, $Celebrity) or die(mysql_error());
$row_rsGalleries = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsGalleries);
$totalRows_rsGalleries = mysql_num_rows($rsGalleries);
