#4765 — 6 line php 2 asp

Guys, this is your humble ASP colleague asking for help.
I have no experience with PHP and I need this 6 line page translated
to ASP

$location   = 'albums';
$album_name = $_GET['album_name'];
$files      = glob($location . '/' . $album_name . '/*.{jpg,gif,png}',
GLOB_BRACE);
$encoded    = json_encode($files);
echo $encoded;
unset($encoded);

it comes from here:
http://tympanus.net/codrops/2010/06/27/beautiful-photo-stack-gallery-with-jquery-and-css3/
but I honestly would not know where to start

No cross-subject violation meant, just shopping where the knowledge
is...
Sorry, and thanx again

Petr

You'll do better asking in an asp newsgroup, since that's your target.

See Jerry's comments - I can try and explain what I think the code does, 
but (a) I might be wrong and (b) I know nada about ASP.

It seems to be generating a json encoded list of pathnames of all files 
matching 3 popular image types in a subdirectory of "albums" that was 
passed as a parameter in a get request.

The following pages should help you work your way through understanding 
the php:

1) $_GET[] http://uk.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.get.php
2) glob() http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.glob.php
3) string concatenation http://uk.php.net/manual/en/
language.operators.string.php
4) json_encode() http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.json-encode.php
5) echo http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.echo.php
6) unset http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.unset.php

Basically, the file expects a get request that looks something like:

http://server/path/page?album_name=dirname

then given files in: "albums/dirname" with the names:

file1.gif
file2.gif
file3.jpg
file4.png
file5.png
file6.jpg

I believe that the response will look something like:

{0:"albums/dirname/file1.gif",1:"albums/dirname/file2.gif",2:"albums/
dirname/file3.jpg",3:"albums/dirname/file4.png",4:"albums/dirname/
file5.png",5:"albums/dirname/file6.jpg"}

But that's the best I can offer you.

This might give you enough of an understanding to write the equivalent 
ASP code, or it might not.

If I recall correctly, ASP was already abandoned when JSON was invented 
so you'll have to write your own JSON routines.

There are a couple of libraries listed on http://www.json.org/ for it.
I can't recall which one of them I used when I last did an asp project
but whichever one it was, worked well (and is still working).
