That would allow me to create html files in "batch" fashion?

I'm trying to create a site full of emoticons, it would have a number of pages, and there's a boat load of emoticons to be added.

I have a couple of html editing programs here, First Page 2000, and Dreamweaver 4.0. For the First Page 2000, I don't see a feature to create in batches, and with Dreamweaver, I believe it'll only do a batch with thumbnails added too, and that isn't what I really want!! :)

Any help would be muchly appreciated, the program has to work with gif files, not just jpg files, and, preferably free if possible!! ;)

I use this one...

http://www.fookes.com/software/html-img.htm

It's an oldie but goodie made by the guy who makes Note Tab Lite (which I also use). I don't know if there's a link to the software on his site anymore but this page I found by Googling the zip file name (htmimg32.zip).;)

I used to use it when I had folders with pics that I wanted to look at full size so I could see what they looked like in an html file. It makes an html file that will include all filtered images in a folder. You can then edit the html file or copy the section that has the image codes. Pretty simple to use. It doesn't make all the tag info though so it won't validate (no height/width/alt).

Just be careful not to put all the images in one folder cause the html file it creates can turn into a monster when you open it. :p

I have on occasion set up Apache and PHP locally to use it to generate a set of static pages like this, but that would require you to know some PHP

WOW, that Fookes program was/is just the ticket, thanks Rockboy, I've already given it a go, such a small download, yet pretty powerful!! :)
