[2003-09-30] A Dynamic PHP Thumbnail Gallery Part 2
Welcome back to part two of the Code Gallery Spotlight of the PHP based Photo Gallery called "AutoGallery". Last week, I discussed with you the general idea of the AutoGallery's image management and introduced the constructor used to initialize the variables in the AutoGallery class. This week, I'll take a look at the two functions that the constructor calls after initialization resize() and cleanup() and how they perform the necessary management of the gallery images. Let's start with the resize() function.

In my last column, I introduced the resize() function and a simple cache system is used to create and keep updated the thumbnails for all the images that are to be displayed in the picture gallery. This week, I'll introduce the second half of the AutoGallery's management system by discussing the checkup() member function which handles the removal of thumbnails which are no longer necessary.

The Widget Queen Revisited
You have the world's finest collection of widgets. You created the world's best widget website. You have no traffic.
You checked in the search engines and find that your site does not appear at all, even though all your competitors' sites do. Perhaps the search engine robots cannot get to your pages to index them.
Search Engine Robots
Search engine robots are simple creatures. They can "read" text to add to their databases, and they can follow "normal" links--those links that are coded to look like
<a href="bluewidgets.html">blue widgets </a>
or the slight variation
<a href="bluewidgets.html ><img src="bluewidget.gif" ></a>
[2003-09-03] Getting Your Web Site Listed in the Google Index
Reader Question: I have submitted my site to the major search engines including Google and DMOZ (Open Directory Project). I'm not getting much traffic to my site and believe this is largely because the site can't be found on Google. We've used the proper meta tags, meta-description and header bar, even the home page body is keyword rich. I've been busy getting links to the site from other relevant sites.
