      This was written so that i could just upload my JPG's  and
      the web server would do all of the work for me.  putting
      different template files in different directories to make
      different looks per directory if you want

UUUUSSSSAAAAGGGGEEEE
      In your apache conf or .htaccess file put what is in the
      synopsys Make sure that you have Imager installed, this
      can be instelled from cpan or found at
      http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~addi/perl/Imager/

      The displayed pages are done by using templates that you
      may create your own template or use the default.  There
      are two different typs of templages and two ways to create
      your own template:

              Type 1. Index Template: This is the page displayed with the thumbnails on it
                              a. if you create a file named .indextemplate in the directory with
                                 the images PhotoIndex will use this file
                              b. in your .htaccess or apache conf file place
                                 PerlSetVar IndexTemplate '/var/photoindextemplate/mytemplate.html'

                      Variables: In this page you can use the following variables for replacement
                              a. %%title%%
                                      this is the defined title for the gallery, default is Photo Album
                              b. %%directories%%
                                      this is a listing of all subdirectories off of this directory
                              c. %%imagetable%%
                                      this is the table that contains all of the thumbnails
                              d. %%others%%
                                      this is a listing of links to the other files in this directory that
                                      are not images

              Type 2. Individual Template: This is the page displayed with one jpg on it and back and next thumbnails
                              a. if you create a file named .individualtemplate in the directory with
                                 the images PhotoIndex will use this file
                              b. in your .htaccess or apache conf file place
                                 PerlSetVar IndividualTemplate '/var/photoindextemplate/myindividualtemplate.html'

                      Variables: In this page you can use the following variables for replacement
                              a. %%back%%
                                      this is the thumbnail and link going back one image
                              b. %%next%%
                                      this is the thumbnail and link going forward one image
                              c. %%image%%
                                      this is the big jpg with the description


      Editing Descriptions:      while looking at an index of
      images add ?edit_photos onto the end of the query string.
           BEWARE in this version i did not build it in to
      protect that so anyone could edit your photos      unless
      you put it in to block it.       The next version will
      have a protection for this
