title: Tagging images with php
body: <p>I would like to write a script that can tag images and save the tag on the <strong>FILE</strong>, not in an external database. I would also need to read the tags from the file via php as well.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Why do I want to do this?</strong></p>
  
  <p>Right clicking on an image and selecting properties and then clicking on details, THEN clicking on tags and THEN adding your tags is tedious to say the least. I can't find any shortcut for adding tags quickly in windows so I want to write my own script that can do that.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Is this possible?</strong></p>
  
  <p>I don't know if it is, whenever I search for images and tags in the same line I get image tags for html tutorials or people saving tags in an external database. I can't really find any good resources, if anyone can suggest some I can look at I would be grateful.</p>
  
  <p><strong>What do I have so far?</strong></p>
  
  <p>I can list all the images on my hdd and click on an image and a popup will appear for me to enter a tag. I then send this tag to a php file waiting for me to do something with it...</p>
  
  <p><strong>Why don't I want to save the tags in an external database?</strong></p>
  
  <p>I won't be running my localhost all the time. If I copy the images the tags should go with.</p>
  
  <p>Any information about this would be great.</p>
