Hi Paolo, Thanks for the explanation; I did not think of that (* as a restricted wildcard). Unfortunately renaming is not an option for me since the photos are also used inside tiddlers, so I have to adjust these tiddlers as well and I'am talking about 1200+ photos!
I'am describing the history of a part of Amsterdam (in Dutch), so with text and photos ("thumbnails" 400 px high) in tiddlers. Most photos can be enlarged by clicking the photo (so I have 1 sets of photos: 1 set of 400 px high photos and 1 set of photos in all kind of dimensions). The TW can be found at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2638511/Amsterdam_1822-2009.html As an extra I thought of a slideshow of all available photos. I hope to find another solution of displaying photos in TW: a slideshow of photos in a certain folder at a fixed dimension of e.g. 800 px or - better - fullscreen. An alternative is making a separate slideshow (outside a TW), but that is not my first choice. Anyway, thanks for answering my question about the syntax.
