I must confess I think this can't be done with PHP because of it being
server-side but hell you seem like a friendly and helpful enough bunch of
guys anyway so I thought I'd ask you knowledgable ones.

So what should I be using?  Javascript?  I want the size of the window, not
the screen resolution.  Also is it possible to change the page layout if the
user resizes his window whilst looking at the page?

Basically I want to create a table of photos from my database.  And I want
there to be enough columns to fill the viewable size.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.substr.php

string substr (string string, int start [, int length])

Substr returns the portion of string specified by the start and length
parameters.

If start is positive, the returned string will start at the start'th
position in string, counting from zero. For instance, in the string
'abcdef', the character at position 0 is 'a', the character at position
2 is 'c', and so forth.

Examples:
$rest = substr ("abcdef", 1);    // returns "bcdef"
$rest = substr ("abcdef", 1, 3); // returns "bcd"

Aren't the trims just for white space?
