Multiple uploads in reverse order

[johnwr]

Hi,

I wonder why the multipic upload inserts the uploaded pictures in reversed order?

Not really a problem, other than on the last uploads view, and easy to workaround (Upload the pics in reversed order).

However I would feel a queue implementation of this rather than a stack is more logical?

Well, I think in stacks, and I like the array_pop function. It was an arbitrary decision, really.

How would this affect the Last Uploads album?  The images are not inserted into the gallery until after the data page, so they are shown in the order uploaded.

If I upload two pics at the same time, I'm first prompted to comment and place the second one, and then the first one.
(If my memory serves me right).

Then in the "last uploaded" section the first one shows first (which means it is uploaded last), as is natural if you pop from a stack when you present the pics for commenting and placing.

I like using stacks a lot as well, but maybe a queue would be more natural in this case?

I'm not a php programmer, so I don't even know if there is such queue functionality there...

Hi,

Here is my Solution:

in upload.php

replace

Code Select Expand

for ($counter = 0; $counter < $file_upload_count; $counter++) {
with

Code Select Expand

for ($counter = $file_upload_count - 1; $counter >= 0; $counter--) {

and

Code Select Expand

for ($counter = 0; $counter < $URI_upload_count; $counter++) {
with

Code Select Expand

for ($counter = $URI_upload_count - 1; $counter >= 0; $counter--) {

I found out a better solution:

undo the changes above

in upload.php

search for

Code Select Expand


   // Count errors in each error array and the escrow array.
   $escrow_array_count = count($escrow_array);
   $file_error_count = count($file_failure_array);
   $URI_error_count = count($URI_failure_array);
   $zip_error_count = count($zip_failure_array);


and paste before:

Code Select Expand


   // Reverse Array to Show the Uploaded Files in the right Way
   if(is_array($escrow_array)) $escrow_array = array_reverse($escrow_array);


it should work
