How can I make web picture galleries from pictures matching a keyword search?

I have a bunch of pictures tagged with keywords (currently in iPhoto). I want to have a website where someone can search for a keyword, or choose a keyword from a list, and have a web photo gallery generated of all matching pictures. I have hosting with mySQL and PHP. I am familiar with computers, but I can NOT program this myself, I'm looking for some "easy" way to do it. A blog site or free homepage or such would be fine if they include this functionality, or a pre-made website platform I can install on my host with this functionality. It does not have to be highly customizable or elegant.

  1. You need to leanr programming in sql and php to do this. Google search tutorials for that, and get rid of that mac it sucks.
  2. I have a website with PHP and MySQL and am using Coppermine photo gallery. It's a free software you can use to run the photo gallery on your site. Here's an example page: http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg14x/thumbnails.php?album=29 This does come with a built-in search function. The basic search goes by the title or description of the photo, but there's a keyword option also. There are a lot of different themes you can use with the gallery, and there are flash tutorials and a support forum (just use the seach there) to help you out if you have any problems setting it up.
