iPhoto '09 won't run now that I've gone back to 10.6. I've long since
gotten rid of my iLife 09 media. Now I need to be able to make a
website like that, or similar to that, from iPhoto and I'm not willing
to buy a current version of iLife to do it. Are there any apps out
there which can do this?
I just launched iWeb, but that doesn't seem to do quite the same thing.
Free would be good, or something not-too-expensive. And it's REQUIRED
that the product retain the order of the photos as given, unlike iPhoto
09.

Any chance you have Photoshop Elements? It can create a web page from

a folder of photos.
How many photos are we talking about? As Michael said, you could write
your own web code. Or find a page that does approximately what you want
and emulate its HTML.

take a look at jAlbum.
According to my (old) notes, it looks like I had to do a couple of
things to get it to work on my local Mac's Apache installation:
--
jAlbum notes
Projects are created in Documents/jAlbum stuff
After creating an album, rename the "album" folder inside the project
folder as desired, and copy it to Sites/photo_albums
All images must have an extension -- e.g. ".jpg"
Some ICC profiles are not acceptable -- Adobe 1998 is one; sRGB works.

It's not a total matter of cost, though it is SOME or I'd get
Dreamweaver or similar. It's a matter of QUALITY, which iPhoto doesn't
have, and ability, and speed. Sure, I could write my own pages, but I'd
rather have it automated.

Some years ago, Apple changed the Help function such that it no
longer defaults to the application you're currently using. Instead,
it performs a more general search on your Mac. However, the application
you're using will be the first one listed below the Search field.
Click on the name and that app's Help utility will open.
The specific app you want from CS5 is Adobe Bridge. Use the search
term "web photo gallery" from any app within CS5 and you'll get
the instructions. You may want to check the "Adobe reference only"
box within the Adobe Help window.
Here is the website URL for the information I was referring to
in Adobe Help:
