I was viisitingand saw the images fade on the home page. It uses jquery and I was needing some assistance getting this working on my web site. Where would I locate any "how to" documentation?
I have the basic image gallery set up for thumbnails to populate a larger image... i uploaded it quick, take a look: [url]
Only thing i need to do is make the next and back buttons work...i know its something simple im missing if you bring up the firebug console i have several console logs on the next button.
I'm looking for a very simple image gallery solution (no lightbox or something other fance) with a large image and a x amount of thumbnails at one off the sides, where the big image change whenever another thumbnail is clicked, without page refresh. ( a fade transition would be nice)!Which Plugin, preferably as light as possible, is the most suitable for this task?
I came across this awesome image slider: Thumbnails Navigation Gallery with jQuery. The problem is ..you have to click on "best shots" to see the thumbnail navigation... 1) How do you show this thumbnail navigation straight away on loading the page? (ie "best shots" and other list items dont need to be there) 2) and get the thumbnails show near the bottom of the page? 3) and also get the next image to fade in automatically say after 5 seconds, without having to click on a thumbnail, although one can?
Right, here goes: I'm using a modified "jQuery Cycle Plugin - 'goto' Demo 2 (aka: Poor Man's pager)" implementation of the Cycle plugin, this works fine in FF2+, Op9, Saf3+ and Chrome2 but in IE cycle stops the background- image from repeating! As usual I cannot give out a public link due to NDA but I can give you these two image locations to see the differences: [URL]
I am creating a custom gallery that I require an image and text to swap on click of an anchored thumbnail. I have successfully managed to change the image on click however I can't seem to manage changing the text. Currently when a user clicks on the thumbnail both the image and text is swapped however when the user clicks on another anchored thumbnail (after clicking on the first) the image swaps correctly but the text does not change My Code
I have a photo blog [url] and want to create an effect that fades-in the displayed picture when the page is loaded.
An important requirement for me would be that the page also has to work without Javascript.
Currently I am using the following small plugin:
It is called directly beneath the <img> element:
This way it works fine with the current versions of Firefox and IE. I did not test other browsers or versions yet. I tried to call it in $(document).ready but then IE might display the picture shortly before it is hidden and faded-in.
Since I am not 100% happy with having the code in the middle of the HTML and with depending on the timing of execution to avoid flickering I wanted to ask for other solution or best practices to achieve what I would like to do.
One solution that came to my mind is to do create the image in JScript and only fade it in after it is loaded. To work without Javascript I could still put the <img> element where it was but within a <noscript> element. But not sure how well the <noscript> is supported by older or exotic browsers.
I've implemented a photo gallery using Galleria and jCarousel on my site, and have chosen to use custom thumbnails instead of having Galleria generate them for me from the source images.
As far as I can tell, there may be an advantage in conserving bandwidth with this method, but the page also degrades to a nice set of thumbnails that link to the larger images (which is very nice, IMO).
Everything works beautifully, however when viewing this gallery for the first time, instead of the large image fading in nicely as it does in the Galleria demo, it almost kind of "slides" the image into view like it's rendering pieces of it as it loads in the container. This is definitely an effect i would like to avoid, but I also thought that one of the benefits of Galleria was that it pre-loaded images in the background, right?
So why does my gallery appear to be loading these images "on-demand"?
I am looking for a version of lightbox that would allow the user to click on a single reference image and when the "lightboxed" version appears a strip of thumbnails would be available at the top or bottom of that image. Thus, the user could navigate between images within the lightbox by clicking on a different thumbnail. If such beast exists a URL would appreciated. Extensive Googling hasn't turned up what I'm looking for at all.
I would like to animate a number of thumbnails in a gallery. My idea is to have each thumb transit to another thumb, i.e. you put your mouse over a thumbnail, and it slowly fades to a different image. I have spent a lot of time trying to get this to work, using exhaustive combinations of fadeToggle() and stop(false, false) etc etc and I still can't get a smooth effect.
I have created my own fade engine using a variable that drives the opacity of the image that fades in/out over the other image. My issue is that I would like to get this into a function, as it works beautifully for one image, or if you simply duplicate the code for other thumbnails. The problem is there could be up to 32 thumbnails on the page, which means a lot of repeated code.
I'm currently working on this page. The problem I have is when you hover over each image it fade's into color, I also want the text below to go from one color to another. Also, I want the image to fade in/out if you hover over the text below the image.
I used this tutorial and I'm using the two image technique which has the following jquery:
<!-- // wrap as a jQuery plugin and pass jQuery in to our anoymous function (function ($) { $.fn.cross = function (options) {
I am creating a grid of thumbnails. When a user hovers over a thumbnail, the image enlarges. The *trick* is, I want the "active area" to only be the size of the thumbnail. That is, the thumbnails are 180x120, and when the mouse leaves that area, I want the large image to shrink back to normal size.
I have a working demo here:[url]
The way I accomplished this feels hacky though, and I's like to know if there's a simpler/more elegant way to accomplish it. The thumbs are an unordered list of images.
Here is my javascript:
In essence, I add an overlay div over each thumbnail which acts as the trigger to shrink the enlarged image. I thought I could use the parent <li>, as it doesn't appear to expand with the image (since I've set its size in my CSS) but that didn't work.
I am trying to have text that is placed over an image cross fade into another image with text placed over it. I am using jquery and the images are cross fading perfectly. The text isn't working so well and in Firefox it seems to be very choppy and even sometimes the text just disappears and then there is a blank slide without any text or the text is showing up on the wrong image. Here is the code I have so far:
HTML Code: <div id="slides"> <div class="slide"> <img src="_images/placeholder3.jpg" width="695" height="195" alt="A Passion for Service" /> <div class="slideText"> <h1>And A Different Heading</h1> <p>With the appropriate solution for each client, we provide biomedical engineering and information technology services to suit your needs.</p> [Code]...
I am new to jquery and am going through the Sitepoint book "JQuery: Novice to Ninja. I am using the crossfade code from the book and I tried to apply it to the text as well.
New to javascript/jquery, been trying to create a rotator which displays a large image with caption and uses next/previous button and thumbnails for control. Everything works fine but when the rotator gets to the last item i'd like it to go back to the first, and when the previous button is clicked at the first item I'd like it to go to the last.
$(document).ready(function() { //set to zero var x = 0;
First off, I am no professional coder, so bare with me. The goal was to implement a photo gallery using "ImgBrowz0r" (javascript), and a jQuery plugin called prettyphoto, to make the selected photo pop-up in front of the website. I am very impressed by the way it looks thusfar.
URL: Gallery One thing bugs me however, which I can not wrap my head around;
When viewing the above gallery in Windows 7, using IE8, the thumbnails display really weird rollover behavior. The thumbs are not clickable, except for on the 1-px border and sometimes the exact centerlines. I found out that it is an issue everywhere, except on the last row of folder thumbnails. The last row works perfectly fine! Can anyone explain this to me? I am lost!
I have a php script that gets all images in my directory and outputs them as gallery[0]=firstimage.jpg, [1], [2], .. The php script is supposed to work with the javascript, so to cover all angles here is the php
<? //PHP SCRIPT: getimages.php Header("content-type: application/x-javascript"); //This function gets the file names of all images in the current directory //and ouputs them as a JavaScript array
There are many script on the e web that can easily do what I am looking for but they don't teach me anything. I am trying to learn this stuff, and the best way will be to know what each variable is doing, what function is being called when the thumbnail is hover or focus. All I need is to start with a single image, when I hover on the image, a larger image appear.I know how to declare a variable, create a function, how to put these things into everyday projects is what the books never tells you.
i installed jondesigns smooth gallery from [URL] All installed fine, minus one problem with setting the thumbnails up. It asks for this to be entered im just not sure where that code should go: useThumbGenerator: true also it asks for a cache folder to be writeable does that just go anywhere or? Heres my version here: [URL]
Looking for javascript, to do what i've hap-hazardly slapped together here: I'd like to do this without having to reload a page or create a new page for each image.

Specifically the switching of the main image by the thumbnails. The difference in what i've seen online, is that i'm actually using them as a cell background.
I've been working at this one for a few days now, and I keep getting the same puzzling results on what should probably have been a simple issue.
My page has images I've loaded at the top and set to {display: none}. The eventual goal is to create thumbnails that will maintain the original images' proportions, but fit within 150x150 px (this is for an artist's gallery page, so it's pretty important to keep the thumbnails looking like the originals). Obviously, the first thing I need to do is get the images' heights and widths. I've tried to do this by iterating through the document.images array and just getting the widths and heights, but for some reason I always get 0 x 0 for the first image. I've tried fixing this by inserting another image before it and then starting the loop at 1 instead of 0 (so it excludes that first image), but I still get the same value. I even tried setting the script to "defer" so it wouldn't run until the page had loaded. Same results. It also doesn't seem to matter whether I ask for document.images[x].width or document.images[x].naturalWidth. The same thing happens either way. Does anyone know what's going on? There's got to be something I'm missing.
How am I able to have a gallery of images fading in and out as the background of a DIV? It's currently just a static background using CSS.You can view the HTML page in question here: http://aksdesigns.co.uk/temp/template.html
The DIV container is the one with the ID of #MainContent
im working on a photography website and the middle section i have set as an image that i want to rotate... and i decided to make my own rotating image because the best it looked was when the image was set to a div. i already have the switching of the div background working but i was wondering if there is anyway to fade in/out the background to a new image?
Alrighty so here's what I have. Live example: [URL] It's a image slideshow that dynamically gets all the images (via php) in the current directory and puts them into the slideshow array. The array then randomly displays the images in the slideshow (via javascript). There are 5 images in the folder rotateimage which also has the php script getimages.php in it. Currently only the first image fades in however I want all the images to fade in as the first one does.
I would like to know what code I need to add to the Javascript below so that the images displayed will show a "<back and next button>" under each image, like on: http://www.msn.com Code:
I'm using this tutorial to create a simple list of images that fade between each other.I can get it working fine following the instructions.However, i wonder if any genius's on here can tweak it so when the page loads it randomly picked image from the group and then carries on with its fades?Basically the image will be on a home page so each time you visit i want it to be a random image from the group and then fade through the rest..
I have a code which allows a set few images to be used in a slide-show type style for switching the documents background image which displays a set few images which are declared in an object array.
Basicly I have it all working perfectly with a "Timer" object value so you can set your own display length per picture but what I can't seem to do is make a cross-browser image fade transaction which works for background images, Here is the code
