Please Help... Recordset Navigation

Question

I am using a PHP/MySQL database to incorporate dynamic data
in my website. In particular, I have a gallery of photo thumbnails
(the thumbnails are displayed via a Recordset). When clicked on,
each thumbnail link opens a pop-up window, which displays the name
and full-size image of the record desired. I've tried to insert a
Repeated Region server behavior within the pop-up to display one
full-size picture at a time and a Recordset navigation bar to click
through the different images. However, I can't seem to figure it
out.
Operating System: Mac OS X (v10.3)
Web Server: Apache
Browser: N/A
Database type: MYSQL
Application server: PHP

Thanks for your advice, Steve! I'm not sure about the form,
though. I'm fairly new to PHP...
Here's the PHP code from the thumbnails page:
<?php require_once('../../Connections/CSA.php'); ?>
<?php
mysql_select_db($database_CSA, $CSA);
$query_Rides = "SELECT * FROM Rides ORDER BY id ASC";
$Rides = mysql_query($query_Rides, $CSA) or
die(mysql_error());
$row_Rides = mysql_fetch_assoc($Rides);
$totalRows_Rides = mysql_num_rows($Rides);
?>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="10"
style="padding: 5px;">
<tr>
<?php
$Rides_endRow = 0;
$Rides_columns = 6; // number of columns
$Rides_hloopRow1 = 0; // first row flag
do {
if($Rides_endRow == 0 && $Rides_hloopRow1++ != 0)
echo "<tr>";
?>
<td>
<a href="display_ride.php?id=<?php echo
$row_Rides['id']; ?>" target="_blank" alt="<?php echo
$row_Rides['name']; ?>" title="<?php echo $row_Rides['name'];
?>"><img src="pictures/<?php echo $row_Rides['thumb'];
?>" class="ride" /></a></td>
<?php $Rides_endRow++;
if($Rides_endRow >= $Rides_columns) {
?>
</tr>
<?php
$Rides_endRow = 0;
while ($row_Rides = mysql_fetch_assoc($Rides));
if($Rides_endRow != 0) {
while ($Rides_endRow < $Rides_columns) {
echo("<td> </td>");
$Rides_endRow++;
echo("</tr>");
}?>
</table>
<?php
mysql_free_result($Rides);
?>
And here's the code from the popup window:
<?php require_once('../../Connections/CSA.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType,
$theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")
$theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue)
: $theValue;
$theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ?
mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) :
mysql_escape_string($theValue);
switch ($theType) {
case "text":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" :
"NULL";
break;
case "long":
case "int":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
break;
case "double":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . doubleval($theValue) .
"'" : "NULL";
break;
case "date":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" :
"NULL";
break;
case "defined":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue :
$theNotDefinedValue;
break;
return $theValue;
$currentPage = $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"];
$colname_current_Ride = "-1";
if (isset($_GET['id'])) {
$colname_current_Ride = $_GET['id'];
mysql_select_db($database_CSA, $CSA);
$query_current_Ride = sprintf("SELECT * FROM Rides WHERE id =
%s", GetSQLValueString($colname_current_Ride, "int"));
$current_Ride = mysql_query($query_current_Ride, $CSA) or
die(mysql_error());
$row_current_Ride = mysql_fetch_assoc($current_Ride);
$totalRows_current_Ride = mysql_num_rows($current_Ride);
$colname_next_Ride = "-1";
if (isset($_GET['id'])) {
$colname_next_Ride = $_GET['id'];
mysql_select_db($database_CSA, $CSA);
$query_next_Ride = sprintf("SELECT * FROM Rides WHERE id >
%s ORDER BY id ASC", GetSQLValueString($colname_next_Ride, "int"));
$next_Ride = mysql_query($query_next_Ride, $CSA) or
die(mysql_error());
$row_next_Ride = mysql_fetch_assoc($next_Ride);
$totalRows_next_Ride = mysql_num_rows($next_Ride);
$colname_previous_Ride = "-1";
if (isset($_GET['id'])) {
$colname_previous_Ride = $_GET['id'];
mysql_select_db($database_CSA, $CSA);
$query_previous_Ride = sprintf("SELECT * FROM Rides WHERE id
< %s ORDER BY id DESC",
GetSQLValueString($colname_previous_Ride, "int"));
$previous_Ride = mysql_query($query_previous_Ride, $CSA) or
die(mysql_error());
$row_previous_Ride = mysql_fetch_assoc($previous_Ride);
$totalRows_previous_Ride = mysql_num_rows($previous_Ride);
$queryString_current_Ride = "";
if (!empty($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
$params = explode("&", $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);
$newParams = array();
foreach ($params as $param) {
if (stristr($param, "pageNum_current_Ride") == false
stristr($param, "totalRows_current_Ride") == false) {
array_push($newParams, $param);
if (count($newParams) != 0) {
$queryString_current_Ride = "&" .
htmlentities(implode("&", $newParams));
$queryString_current_Ride =
sprintf("&totalRows_current_Ride=%d%s",
$totalRows_current_Ride, $queryString_current_Ride);
?>
<h1 class="rideTitle" style="position: relative; top:
10px"><?php echo $row_current_Ride['name']; ?></h1>
<area shape="rect" coords="4,3,48,47"
href="display_ride.php?id=<?php echo $row_previous_Ride['id'];
?>" id="Previous Ride" name="Previous Ride" />
<area shape="rect" coords="47,3,99,47"
href="display_ride.php?id=<?php echo $row_next_Ride['id'];
?>" id="Next Ride" name="Next Ride" />
<area shape="rect" coords="851,3,897,47" href="#"
onclick="self.close();" id="Close Window" name="Close Window" />
<img src="pictures/<?php echo
$row_current_Ride['image']; ?>" alt="<?php echo
$row_current_Ride['image']; ?>" title="<?php echo
$row_current_Ride['image']; ?>" class="ride" style="position:
relative; top: -15px" />
<!-- Hide the caption <?php echo
$row_current_Ride['caption']; ?> -->
<?php
mysql_free_result($current_Ride);
mysql_free_result($next_Ride);
mysql_free_result($previous_Ride);
?>
Again, I have a decent sense of what to do with PHP, but I'll
use any help that I can receive. Thanks!
