PHP Gallery Assistance and SSI?

[agearhart]

I'm looking to implement the gallery that is located here:
http://gallery.menalto.com/

I had been looking around for something like Flickr, but that didn't limit me to a specific file size for the pictures/month and only allow for viewing of the 100 newest pictures. I think I found it with the above mentioned script. However, it requires that two elements be installed on the server... complete IIS instructions can be found here:
http://gallery.menalto.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=GalleryDocs&file=index&page=gallery1-install.windows-iis.php

Two small items need to be installed... they are common open source image manipulators. The techs sent me here for help.

Then... today I read a post here that server side includes aren't allowed for security reasons? What?! Somebody, please... 'say it ain't so!'

Well.. we do not allow any software installation on the server.

SSI is not available because there's some security bug w/ the IIS implementation of SSI.

If you are open to suggestion, I can recommend several other gallery software that uses standard feature on the server.

/emoticons/yeah.gif Yes, I'm open to suggestion. As long as it's not subliminal. /emoticons/tongue.gif

Is the PHP implementation of server side includes available?
http://us4.php.net/include/

I had tried nGallery several months ago... and ran into some sort of problem that I was having a hard time solving at the time. /emoticons/confused.gif I suppose I will try it again.

One of the things that I liked about the php gallery though was the fact that it is integrated w/ Shutterfly... meaning that if any of my relatives from Calif. wanted prints of the items in my gallery... they just had to pay for the prints... and they had them. That made it a very nice prospect for handling our wedding pictures that I haven't been able to get out to relatives in the nearly 3 /emoticons/blush.gif years that my wife and I have been married!

.... ah... that's what it was... there's no batch upload/add functionality... that is what was missing. That makes it a *very* time consuming process to upload my full collection of images (there's over 300 just from our wedding). I already have to deal with scanning all of them... if I have to spend 30-45 seconds with each one of them uploading.... yech. Am I missing something?

I think php include should work fine. it's part of the php core functions.
