Plugins are binary files. You can’t ‘just edit’ binary files. You have to edit the source code and re-compile.

However, you CAN do a global edit on the HTML files using something like TextPad’s find and replace, and rename the extensions to PHP.

However, as the files do not contain any PHP code, why do you need to change the extension anyway? Why invoke the PHP interpreter to just spew out the HTML that is already written in the file?

Becuase I’m using PHPNuke and I have edited the gallery basic files adding php-code to support overall variable of my site like $bgcolor and $textcolor.

Take a look at the help files under:
Customizing Web photo gallery styles

You can do that without using PHP

I looked ad the Help File but I haven’t found anything that talk how take variable from database (like mySQL).
I need that when the user open the Gallery found somthing like "Welcome $user" and all customized (color, dimension etc.) based on user preferences.

If you know some specific help file to link I’ll be really happy 🙂

Thx 4 your Patience

Shmk,

No, I don’t believe you will be able to do that from Web Gallery.

Personally, in the circumstances you describe, I wouldn’t use web gallery at all. It’s very easy to generate the same thing entirely in PHP.

There’s a very simple example of doing so at
http://www.novasport.co.uk/play/gallery/index.php4

The image filenames in the above site are saved in a simple flat text file (that site does not use a database) and the number of rows and columns for the thumbnails are held in variables. PHP’s GetImageSize() is used to determine the required size of the pop-up window.

Is there some reason you can’t just rename the files from htm to php in windows?

I thought that don, but aren’t there ref’s to those files in links spread across the files? he’d have to edit the files themselves and do something like a replace all.

Could be Dave. I’ve never used the gallery myself.
