ASP driven photo gallery - using Access?

[rosiegforce]

:confused;
I am hoping to set up a photo gallery that will enable users to click through
images of an event (photographed by various people) in chronological order. I
am also wanting to provide mini galleries for each individual photographer.

I don't want to use frames.

I want to use ASP to do this as efficiently as possible. I was thinking I
could put images into an Access database. However, Dreamweaver is having
problems opening/reading my table (It says 1073741823 required next to each
image within the table in the Database/Bindings/Server Behaviours panel). I
don't know what this means.

Can anyone advise a way to make images contained within an Access database
appear in Dreamweaver?

Any tips much appreciated.
x Rosie

Rosie, did you put the actual image into the database, or the
path/filename for the image?

It's far better to put the path/filename into the database.

I have a sample ASP-Access image gallery that I can send you if you
want. Warning: it does NOT use Dreamweaver's built-in server coding
stuff; it's all hand-coded. You need to be at least a little proficient
in ASP/VBScript to be able to figure it out.

Send me an email offlist: winday at wildrosewebsites dot com and I'll
send you the files if you want.

Actually, it's best (all other things, etc.) to just put the filename of the
image in the database. Do the pathing in the HTML. That way, if you move
an image, you don't have to find the records and change them.
