My website www.AlaskaStudio.com is a flash based site with a html backend (for web browsers). The flash gallery I use reads from a xml file that looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <albums>
  <id type="gall" value="22" />
- <gallery id="17" name="Landscape" path="gallery/17/">
  <id type="img" value="1" />
  <image id="1" thumbnail="1s.jpg" pic="1.jpg" name="DSC_3144" description="" def="1" />
  </gallery>
- <gallery id="18" name="Wildlife" path="gallery/18/">
  <id type="img" value="1" />
  <image id="1" thumbnail="1s.jpg" pic="1.jpg" name="DSC_3025" description="" def="1" />
  </gallery>
- <gallery id="19" name="Aurora" path="gallery/19/">
  <id type="img" value="2" />
  <image id="2" thumbnail="2s.jpg" pic="2.jpg" name="NL003" description="This northern lights picture was taken during the peak of the season here in Alaska. The mountain in the background is Omalley\'s Third Peak just outside of Anchorage." def="1" />
  </gallery>
- <gallery id="20" name="Abstract" path="gallery/20/">
  <id type="img" value="1" />
  <image id="1" thumbnail="1s.jpg" pic="1.jpg" name="DSC_1228" description="" def="1" />
  </gallery>
- <gallery id="22" name="extra" path="gallery/22/">
  <id type="img" value="1" />
  <image id="1" thumbnail="1s.jpg" pic="1.jpg" name="extra" description="" def="1" />
  </gallery>
  </albums>


What I want to be able to do is use coppermine to upload file, and make changes to photos, categories, etc. Then, when I am all done go to www.AlaskaStudio.com/admin and have this script pull up and write the xml (cgal.xml) file with a click of a button.

The xml file should use the coppermine thumbnails, intermediate, file names, descriptions, everything.

I was told that this should be hard with someone that has php/mysql knowledge, but I dont know enough to do it.

I would like the file within the next week if possible.


Please let me know if you are interested, and what you would charge to build such a creature.
