I need help with xcgal

Hi there,
I'm going to use xcgal as pictures gallery in a website, but I need to add extra info in the picture table to use it in somewhere, and that info is auto, means it takes [pid] value and use it .

I don't know if i could explain the idea or not,
but I hope the image below can show the idea :
Resized Image


sorry for my English
and thank you for helping

If all you need is to add the pid to a constant string then you really shouldn't need to modify the database. You can create the string by using something like:

$extra_info = 'ex' . $pid

or depending on where you're using this the pid may be available from the object, like:
$extra_info = 'ex' . $pictureObj->getVar('pid');


Sorry, I don't know xcgal well enough to tell you which method you're most likely going to be able to use.

What kind of extra information do you want to store?

I want to add Special Code for each picture like
[pic_number] => [pic_1], [pic_2]
that's why I think the number is good to be same with [pid].

and thank you guys

If the extra data can be derived from the pid number, then you don't need to add a column, simply calculate it (see example Zyspec).
