Well, first off, you seem to expect newsgroups to be your own personal
consulting resource. I attempted to point you to a resource so you
could do the investigation and evaluation once you got stuck. That's
usually the nature of technical news groups--'help I'm stuck' rather
than 'let me do the work for you' help.

If you wanted an evaluation of 'these scripts are good', that's might
work for something generic like a e-commerce cart script or a MySQL
class but you had specific requirements you wanted _US_ to do the work
of evaluating and recommending. That looks like an intern's first
assignment or you're to busy to do the leg-work yourself OR you're just
lazy. Based on the tone of your response, I choose Carol Merril behind
door #3.

php is a SERVER-side scripting language like perl. It is most commonly
used to display dynamic content to a web browser or on a command-line
like a scripting language. The display features of your photo gallery
describe a web-based application. They are best implemented with
Javascript on the remote browser. php would construct a page of photos
with an embedded javascript and send the whole thing to the browser.
The user would interact with the script to select a photo, clicking on
the various elements until it does a POST or GET to the server, then php
would parse the response and display more content to the browser. This
is basic web programming. Maybe you should start with the O'Reilley
books on php, javasecript, and mysql. They'll get you started so you
can ask more informed questions here.

If you want a good script repository, I like

http://www.phpclasses.org

multiple contributors and you can browse a specific type of code. What
you describe is often seen in Wordpress or Drupal multi-media pages.
You might look into implementing those content management systems as a
more complete solution than just a script.

Now go do your own research.
