How much of the documentation have you read?
only one entry that this entry will own a serial photos as one ablum.
I'm unclear of what you want to do. Because you published this in the Open Source forum, I'm going to guess you're using MTOS. If that's the case, my first thought is that you should step up to MT Pro so you can get the Commercial Pack and custom fields--where you could create entry-asset relationships easily and reliably.
Aside form that, the EntryAssets tag may help you do what you want.
Dan:
thanks you guide.
you r right: i want a entry-assets ( photos ) relationships.
If you want to embed a large number of images quickly, you may want to try out my Image Gallery plugin.
Mike:
thanks a lot for your suggestion.
in fact, i had download your image gallery plugins and try to install in my MT, and,i check the system lever plugins management panel that it had been install success, it do not work as expect.
i had try my best to learn and find out all QA about your pluings, but i can't found any helpfull info.
and, i had ordered a "slideshow pro for flash" as a component to show photos in one entry. so, i need the photos plugins to build a photo list XML file for "slideshow pro".
