I have a quick question - about copying files - which might actually beg some additional questions about the methods I am employing to display some .jpegs on the web....

Essentially, I am trying to post about 100+ images (in lieu of picasa, flikr etc.) - in a very basic way - allowing viewers to click back and forth between multiple pages of images - one image per page....

I have created an html "template", which I am copying (over and over and over and over, manually) and into which I am "img src="ing each of 100+ .jpegs.

1. Is there a shorter/automated way to copy the html template "x" times - e.g. to create an "index_001.html, index_002.html, index_003+x" without having to "save as" or "copy and paste and rename" (as I am doing now, in konqueror)?

2. Is there a better way?

3. Am I reinventing the wheel?

Thanks for any help!

You are better off using one page and using PHP or something...

Thanks for your reply. It still nags me, so I am starting to explore this and other similar operations a tad more thoroughly, here (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=962646)....
