Dynamic images directory

[stephenk1973]

I have a direcoty of images. How can i can i create a list of these images as a datasource for a thumbnail page?

I have tried creating a object datasource and corresponding buisness object but to be fair i'm not sure if this is the correct method......

Namespace PubsClasses
Public Class StoreImagesClass
Private dsStoreImages As DataSet = New System.Data.DataSet("ds1")


Public Function GetStoreImages() As ICollection

Dim d As IO.DirectoryInfo = New IO.DirectoryInfo(System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/Images/Display"))
Return d.GetFileSystemInfos("*.jpg")

End Function
End Class

Any pointers or articles much appreciated.

Thnaks

Do you mean you want to display a list of file names or thumbnails of all the images?

I'd like to display them as thumbnails.

You can use the Image.GetThumbnailImage method and call it for each image that you want to display.
