 * Would it be possible to make a snippet with the code:
 * `<?php include("http://www.roswellrotary.com/js-galleries/2012/{directory-name}/
   index.html"); ?>`
 * Where [directory-name} is my directory and then this would process the code to
   include this image gallery on the post?

 * Yes, you can use the include command in a snippet and combine it with variables.
 * the php tags shouldn’t be used though, and php’s include function can’t include
   over the http:// protocol so you need to use the file system path to the file
   you want to include.
 * So something like this should do it (shortcode snippet with the php flag set):
 * `include("/file/system/{directory-name}/to/file.php");`
 * Cheers,
    Johan
