Hi guys, I'm using the Executable PHP widget to make a multilingual gallery in the sidebar. I am using a PHP array to generate a display a selection of random images. I have a value that defines how many images are to be displayed. I want this value to be driven by the height of the 'main' div area, so that as it expands, the sidebar will always be full of images. I have an idea of the jquery code that I would need to implement this, but I don't really know how to get it to send the variable to the php.
Here is my php gallery generator (using thick box)
<div id="docs">
<?php
$length= "5";
$families = array
(
"en"=>array
(
"Name_1",
"Name_2",
"Name_3",
"Name_4",
"Name_5",
"Name_6",
"Name_7",
"Name_8",
"Name_9",
"Name_10",
),
"ru"=>array
(
"Петра_1",
"Петра_2",
"Петра_3",
"Петра_4",
"Петра_5",
"Петра_6",
"Петра_7",
"Петра_8",
"Петра_9",
"Петра_10",
),
);
$numbers = range(0, $length);
shuffle($numbers);
?>
<?php
for($n = 0; $n<$length; $n++) {
$random_1 = $numbers[$n];
$random_1_tit = $families[ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE][$numbers[$n]];
echo "<a href=\"http://konchalovsky.info/foundation/images/". ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE ."/archives/" . $random_1 . ".jpg\" title= ". $random_1_tit. " class=\"thickbox\" /><img src=\"http://konchalovsky.info/foundation/images/en/archives/" . $random_1 . "_t.jpg\" alt=\"\"/></a>";
}
?>
</div>
The value $length i want to be determined by something like this:
var mainReal = $("#main").height();
var length = Math.round(mainReal/300);
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
all the best,
Jack
