CMS Builder - Photo Gallery

I recently started working with CMS Builder and I am trying to create a photogallery where I can have my client upload pictures. I really don't mind to much on how they display, but I would like them to display thumbnails then when you click on the image it would get larger. Please let me know if there is any documentation out there for this, I admit I am still weak with the CMS Builder.
Thanks,
Brett

You can have CMS Builder display photos just about anyway you might need. You just need to move the tags around.
By default it will show thumbnails for uploads if they're available. To add a link to the full size image you'd just change this code:
<?php if ($upload['hasThumbnail']): ?>
<img src="<?php echo $upload['thumbUrlPath'] ?>"
width="<?php echo $upload['thumbWidth'] ?>"
height="<?php echo $upload['thumbHeight'] ?>"
alt="" /><br/>
To this:
<?php if ($upload['hasThumbnail']): ?>
<a href="<?php echo $upload['urlPath'] ?>"><img src="<?php echo $upload['thumbUrlPath'] ?>"
width="<?php echo $upload['thumbWidth'] ?>"
height="<?php echo $upload['thumbHeight'] ?>"
alt="" /></a><br/>
Hope that makes sense, let me know if I can provide more details.

Been a few days since I talked to you. I got the photo page working and I am able to upload to it.
Now on the following URL all the pictures go directly down the page. Is there some type of code I can add that will take these pictures and put them into columns and/or rows.
Here is the URL that I am talking about.

Yes, there's several ways to do that. The best way to proceed is usually to experiment with that on a html mockup page until you find the one the works best and then add it to the viewer page.
One method you could try is adding this to the image tag:
<img ... style="float: left" ... >
Let me know if that works for you. If not we can figure out something else.

That worked great. Can you show me how I can put the image around a cell padding or spacing? I tried doing it to separate the images a bit but it started messing up my entire page.
Thanks man.

The markup?

My first guess is that maybe you want </tr><tr> instead of </td></td>.
So you'd have something like this:
<table><tr>
<?php foreach (getUploads(...)): ?>
<td><img ... ></td>
<?php $maxCols=2; if (@++$count % $maxCols == 0): ?>
</tr><tr>
<?php endif ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
</tr></table>
}
If that's not it post a link to the page or attach the code and let me know the dimensions (2 columns right?) and I'll help you get it working quick.
