LDAP galleryThis set of PHP scripts implements a searchable addressbook for LDAP directories. It suports displaying people's photos (jpegPhoto attribute), phone numbers, e-mails etc. It allows people to change some chosen attributes of their own entries in the LDAP database: currently photo and phone numbers. It also contains a gallery for organizational units, which displays all the people belonging to given organizational unit (having a particular value in the ou attribute). It requires all the organizational units to be described in a separate LDAP subtree using objects having objectclass=organizationalunit. Included is also a Firefox search engine extension that allows to search in this web addressbook. The code isn't very elegant (being PHP code), but it meets the basic requirement: simplicity. The gallery is simple to install. configure and operate. Future directions: - internationalize strings to enable translating to other languages
- separate presentation layer and logic
- make it modular and extensible
