I get the following error when I view the my gallery in the browser:

Warning: opendir(/home/mcbridec/public_html/images/stories/</strong><strong>gallery</strong><strong class="red">) [function.opendir]: failed to open dir: No such file or directory in /home/mcbridec/public_html/mambots/content/plugin_jw_sig.php on line 46


Whats wrong?

Thanks,
Noah

Can you comment about what thing you're modified?

Hi, I am simply trying to add a gallery to a content item and I get that error. I'm just having a hard time getting this to work. I put all the images into the image/stories directory. I put the tag: {gallery}myphotos{/gallery} in the text area of a content item, but it does not display the images property.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Noah

Do you have been inserted {gallery}tags over <strong> tags? If you had it, the result will shows as error. You must to write {gallery}your folder{/gallery} for a correct display.

Thanks again for your help.

So I create a folder and put all my images in it in the image/stories folder. So it would be: image/stories/myfolder  and then simply write this in a content item: {gallery}myfolder{/gallery}  Correct?

I believe I did do that, but I'm going to try again.

Thanks for your patiences,
Noah

In case you did the same typo I just did -and got the same error message- check if there's by mistake a space that has sneaked in in front of myfolder !

I'm getting a similar problem to the one above...

I get the error message:

Warning: opendir(/home/eurofes/public_html/home/images/stories/festivals) [function.opendir]: failed to open dir: No such file or directory in /home/eurofes/public_html/home/mambots/content/plugin_jw_sig.php on line 46

I've put the images in the folder "festivals" using the text { gallery }festivals{ /gallery } (without spaces).

The url is www.eurofestival.co.uk and the problem can be found in the news item called " M.I.A. & more for Roskilde". Anyone know where I'm going wrong?

Also, I read on a PHP forum that Frontpage can cause problems. I used Frontpage to edit my index.html file (which is not being used anymore because I redirect the url - www.eurofestival.co.uk - to www.eurofestival.co.uk/home - e.g. to the Joomla site I've built) and apparently this can cause problems.

The PHP script for the Simple Image Gallery installation is as follows...
