Displaying image name below the images in php

Question

This is the code I am using for making a gallery type:

Main PHP :

<?php
$folder_path = 'images/'; //image's folder path

$num_files = glob($folder_path . "*.{JPG,jpg,gif,png,bmp}", GLOB_BRACE);

$folder = opendir($folder_path);

if($num_files > 0)
{
    while(false !== ($file = readdir($folder))) 
    {
        $file_path = $folder_path.$file;
        $extension = strtolower(pathinfo($file ,PATHINFO_EXTENSION));
        if($extension=='jpg' || $extension =='png' || $extension == 'gif' || 

$extension == 'bmp') 
        {
            ?>
            <a href="<?php echo $file_path; ?>"><img src="<?php echo $file_path; ?>"  

height="200" /></a>
            <?php
        }
    }
}
else
{
    echo "the folder was empty !";
}
closedir($folder);

What should I do to display all image-names. Please help.

what exactly is the problem? How to echo a string? Or how to get the "image name"? — Jeff, Feb 23 '17 at 04:18

as @AmitRajput said: `$file` is the only "image name" available. — Jeff, Feb 23 '17 at 04:20

Try this inside while loop:

$file_path = $folder_path.$file;
$path_parts = pathinfo($file_path);
$extension = strtolower($path_parts['extension']);
if($extension=='jpg' || $extension =='png' || $extension == 'gif' || $extension == 'bmp')
{
    echo '<a href="'.$file_path.'"><img src="'.$file_path.'" height="200" />'.$path_parts['filename'].'</a>';
}

Check this line:

$file_path = $folder_path.$file;

here $file is the name of the file, you can use this to display the file name like:

echo $file;

As per your requirement it is like:

<a href="<?php echo $file_path; ?>"><img src="<?php echo $file_path; ?>"
<?php echo $file; ?>
