Hi... i know you have an hardcoded way to display the thumbnails with images, but i'd like to suggest this one: http://dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex4/thumbnail.htm

it makes the thumbnails looks better on your gallery of images... (my opinion...) because i hate to be forced to resize the windows when i view an image!

That is pretty darn slick. I'm gonna take a look at it. We are not talking a very big mod here, it's just a few template edits.

it's basically adding a few lines of css, a java call for each thumbnail, and placing the .js file itself in the clientscript dir.. ;)

i use this kind of scripts about anywhere...

It works well. I installed in on my computer site. I'm not 100% happy with where the images popup yet, but I'm working on it.

doesn't that method mean that the images load as soon as you open the page thus slowing down the page rather than waiting before you want to open the image before cacheing it?

It say's...


This cool DHTML script allows you to show images inline on the page, with the images downloaded only when called.


It seems to be working well now too. :)
