So basically this code above makes it easy to put up images and their links. For now, I don't have that many images, so the page runs super fast. However, I'm thinking in the long run. If I have say, 10,000 images, it's gonna take a long time to process each paginated page, as I would have $image_links of file1/page1 up to file10000/page10000, and 10000 descriptions! Is there a way to stop the web browser from reading, or skip, certain parts of the script (the $image_links and $image_descriptions in my case)? That way, it won't need to read through all 10000 $image_links and $image_descriptions.
Thanks!
