Challenges with uploading web gallery !

Made a nice web gallery in Bridge and uploaded it to my web site, and through Dreamweaver I can see it is there, but there is no index page, and I have no way to access it. What do I do ?

Find the exported gallery on the hard drive, and open the index file in a web browser. If that works correctly, then yes, it's a problem that you'll need to discuss with your web host, rather than a Lightroom problem that we can help with, sorry.

Need help with uploading web gallery

How to I get uploaded web gallery photos to auto populate with my events?

When somebody uploads a photo in my web gallery, it syncs with the web gallery on iPhoto. However, it doesn't sync with the original event on iPhoto. I know I can drag the uploaded photo into the event. However, I have many photos and don't know when somebody has uploaded a photo and to which event in web gallery.
Is there any way around this?
Al

Taking this a step further...
I identify the photos that someone else has uploaded to my web gallery.
I select and drag these photos to "Events" in iPhoto, and this creates a new event.
I drag the new event onto the old event to consolidate the photos.
I edit the photos I want to keep and delete the rest.
However, this changes / removes the photos uploaded by the other person in the web gallery. So, what procedure should I have followed to prevent changing / deleting the photos from this person? I would prefer to keep all of the photos in the same event. Will the following work:
1) Select only the photos that I want
2) Create duplicates of them in the web gallery
3) Drag the duplicates to "Events" and consolidate these with my original event
4) Edit the photos
Or, is there a better way?

Newbie with flash web gallery

Hi all,
Yes, I am very new at the whole flash process. I am a
photographer who is trying to set up a private link for a flash web
gallery (made in photoshop) for sending at my discretion. I have
successfully made the gallery in photoshop, and now it sits all
nicely in its folder on my desktop. My question is really quite
elementary, as well as embarrassing, but which of those files
within the folder do I send to my potential customer? Do I zip it
all and send via email? Do I have to upload each individual file
from each folder to my server? There has to be an easy way to do
this, I just dont know how.
I would prefer to have it set up on a lone webpage through my
site, but at this point, email would be great to.
Any help would be great!
Thanks.

You need a hosting service for your site, you may already have some space from your ISP. Whoever provides your hosting service will provide you with the log in details you need to upload a gallery using the in built FTP client in LR. See LR help (F1 in LR) here

IWeb'08 lacks tight integration with .Mac Web Gallery

I just created an album page using iWeb'08 (http://web.mac.com/rodkar/Rods.Mac_Site/My_Mac_Album/My_MacAlbum.html) . I have also used iMove'08 and iPhoto'08 to publish a few pictures and movies just to try out the new Web Gallery (http://gallery.mac.com/rodkar#gallery). I think it is clever that I can drag an album that had already been published to Web Gallery using the Media folder of iWeb on the album page. However, the same cannot be performed on movies that I had published to Web Gallery. I could only use "insert .mac web gallery" from the menu bar to insert what turned out to be an embedding of a fixed size movie on the album page. While the photo album takes advantage the new skimming feature, the movies cannot make use of the new features. Or is there another way to publish that I haven't found out yet?
Namaste,
Roderick

Seeing as iTunes store video is m4v format I bet someone writing iTunes thought we'd better not allow anyone to add iTunes store material to an iPhoto library, so all .m4v files are locked out.
Just tested this and exported a short .m4v and as you say when you try to import the .m4v file is greyed out.
I think this'll work:
Under Share choose Export using Quicktime
I chose
Movie to Quicktime Movie then selected Options tab
Choose Quicktime to mov
Use an h264 codec with AAC.
I can certainly import that .mov to iPhoto - and create a web gallery - my uploading is very slow and everything is 'pending' at present but i thinks it's slowly going there!

Can't upload web gallery in LR2

I have tried changing all settings per a search of the forum, but I still can't upload a gallery. I receive a "an error occurred sending file: an unknown error occured" this comes after the images and when it starts building the gallery. tried flash and http galleries, same thing. I can save and upload with cute ftp just fine, but not LR.
anyone know a good tutorial on web galleries?
Ron

Hello - I don't have a solution, but I wanted to post some observations: Each time I click upload, a folder is created or some files are transferred to the host until all the folders have been created on the remote host. In other words, the FTP transfer continues until a MKD command is sent to the host. After that, LR throws an error and stops.
I even went to the extent of deleting all the files from a working gallery structure on the remote host, leaving the folders intact. One click on "Upload" copied all the files into the structure as desired with no error message.
My analysis is that the return code from the FTP host following a successful MKD command is being misinterpreted my LR as an error.
This stops the FTP transfer, but the folder is OK and in the right place on the host. The next upload command either creates another folder, or copies files to the host. Once the folder structure has been created on the host and the Upload contains only files, it goes OK.
A crummy work-around would be to keep an empty gallery folder structure at the client end, copy that via another FTP host, then have LR fill it up.

Can I use CSS with PS Web Gallery Preset?

Using DW CS4. I wanted to create a web gallery with captions under the thumbnail images. I could not get captions to show up using the workspace output tool in Bridge, so I used the web gallery plug-in and preset in Photoshop. The doc title and description from the metadata shows up with each thumbnail and large photo, which is what I wanted. I added an Iframe to make the gallery show up in my web page layout with all the links I wanted, and I re-wrote part of the preset html to eliminate some of the extra preset gallery text at the top of the gallery pages. I am using a transitional doc type.
It all worked out just fine and the pages are working as planned.
However, when I used DW to validate the gallery pages, the report showed errors because the font attributes for the gallery pages are controlled by html and not by CSS. There are two problems cited in the report:
The tag "center" is not allowed within: <p>
In HTML 4.0, FONT is deprecated... consider using style sheets instead.
Questions: On the gallery pages generated by the PS plug-in and pre-set, is there a way to control font attributes with a style sheet instead of using the pre-existing html styling? Do I need to be concerned about the attributes being deprecated?
If you need to look at the web gallery, you can see it at http://www.LoonSongGardens.com/webgallery/galleryab.html
If you look, you can see why I am daylilybud!

I used an iframe (as opposed to a frame) as suggested in an article by David Powers about embedding a gallery into a web page. He says the iframe is acceptable in html, and no problem with the iframe itself was indicated during validation, just the FONT attributes from the PS preset I used. You can read the article here: http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/gallery/embed1.php
In my current gallery, thumbnail captions appear from the metadata for each photograph. For each large image, both the title and the description come from the photo's metadata. This works well for my purpose, and I want to avoid re-entering each title and description. I guess my question could be better stated by asking if CSS can be added to the preset to apply to captions coming from the metadata of each photo.
Regarding the lightbox approach you suggest, I looked at the example and do not see captions under the thumbnails. Can captions be added to the thumbnail images? (It is essential that my thumbnails have captions.)
Customers need to see the name of each plant when they browse thumbnails in order to select items (daylily plants) of interest.
Because I am dealing with hundreds of photos and will need to update frequently, I am looking for a solution that is efficient and fairly easy to maintain. So far, the PS web gallery preset meets my needs better than anything else I have found, but I thought I'd try to find out if I should and can fix the FONT attribute validation problem.

How do I add .swf created with Photoshop web gallery to Dreamweaver page.?

I've used Photoshop CS3 to create a Flash Web Gallery. I put that folder in my site root in dreamweaver, but when I add the .swf to the webpage- it only shows as a white box. Even when I press "play" nothing happens. What else needs to be done? All of the files created with the .swf are also already in the root directory

That would seem to be a question for the DW forum

MS Frontpage problem with LR web gallery

When I try to manually add the web gallery files to the Frontpage application, they will not load up when uploaded.
Any thoughts?
Frank

I deleted the html view code and copied the code I made from a text file and pasted it. Still the same problem. I didn't go line by line comparison. When I published again, still the same.
On checking the activity, I see it won't load the first photo no matter what.
I am making an Airtight AutoViewer and will see what that does when I publish.

Lightroom not uploading web gallery to Business Catalyst

I generated a photo gallery in Lightroom to use on my Business Catalyst hosted site, but when I go to upload the gallery I get an "unknown error has occurred". After searching this on Google, it appears that this is a rather common problem that has been going on for some time. Any idea why it happens? And more importantly, is there a way to fix it?
Thanks!

Uploading web gallery

I have created a photoshop web gallery using bridge. I see the thumbs, pages,photos.js and photos.xml file in my folder. I'm using Dreamweaver to creat my webpages. How do I get the gallery viewable or seen on my website. I'm a newbie at this. Please help. It seems so simple yet I can't figure it out.

Ah... have you asked web design questions in the Dreamweaver forum?
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/index.cfm?forumid=12
Quick instructions...
Your index.htm will be in "something like" http://www.mywebsite.com and will automatically start when someone clicks that link (if your web server uses index.htm as a default)
In your index.htm file (again, if that is what your web server uses as a "default" web page) you put a link to the main page of your gallery, such as...
http://www.mywebsite.com/photos.xml
Copy your entire gallery "structure" to the same place as index.htm
Now, when someone clicks the gallery link, photos.xml will run

Only source view, no layout view with PS web gallery.

I created a web photo gallery using CS3... When i view the pages in GL CS2 from the gallery, it only shows source code, no layout view.
Normally I wouldn't care, however, I have to add links to the jpgs.
Is there a way to fix this so I can work with it?
thanks for your help
g

hmmm. as I uploaded to provide a link the pages are not viewable in a browser.
could it be the # sign in the URL?

Need Help/Advice with Photo Web Gallery coming from SQL Database

This is my first attempt at a database driven website. I assume what I am trying to accomplish should be fairly easy for more experienced but I am stuck at this point.
First, let me explain what I am trying to accomplish.
I want to create a thumbnail photo gallery displayed in columns and rows. I want to be able to hover over or click on the thumbnail image and have a lightbox script display the image over the thumb page. I am developing locally right now with intent to upload to the hosting site upon completion.
I am developing with ASP vbScript pages. I have an SQL database where the paths to the image thumbnails and pictures are stored in a table. On the gallery page, I have created a div tag to hold my image recordset. Within this div, I have inserted 3 absolute positioned divs to hold the pictureID, the pictureName and the image inserted as a datasource. I then inserted the information from the bindings panel of my recordset. Last, I used a horizontal looper extension from Tom Muck to get the thumbnails to display in columns and rows. Everything works up to this point just fine.
Now, I want to be able to hover or click on a thumnail image and have it displayed in a lightbox. I downloaded and used a javascript called Lightbox 2 which contains 3 javascript files and a css stylesheet. I inserted the files into the head tag like instructed to but could not get things to work properly. Here is where I need help. Currently, I am clicking on the thumbImage binding within the image Div and creating a link holder. I am then binding the larger pictureImage to it with the a.href selected in the bind to. I am then adding the command to call the lightbox javascript. Now, when I test my page, my thumbnail images do not show up (my alt text does in its place) but the links are in place and you can click on the alt text and it will return the correct larger image, but not in the lightbox, just in a new window with no styles.
Am I going about this correctly? Can you use lightbox scripts with data-driven galleries? Does anybody have any suggestions of what I may be doing wrong or missing? Are there better ways to go about accomplishing this?
Any help would be appreciated as this dynamic data thing has my head spinning. Although I know a database is needed to simplify the update and maintenance of the photos while allowing them to be searchable by keywords and tags also set up in the database.
Thanks

As I explained, I am developing locally a the moment. I will see about getting the databased moved up to the hosting server and then provide a link for an example.
In the mean time, can you or anyone else explain a way that you would go about displaying an image thumbnail photo gallery laid out in rows / columns, with any lighbox script that would overlay the larger image over the existing page instead of opening a new browser window?
I don't have to use the method I tried to describe.
In all of the lightbox examples I have looked at thus far, they give instructions on how to append that javascript to a single static image or a group of static images, not images from a datasource. That is where I am getting confused.
Don't know if this will help or not but please see code below:
Javascript and CSS positioned in head tag

<link href="CSS/lightbox.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script src="Scripts/protype.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="Scripts/scriptaculous.js?load=effects,builder" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="Scripts/lightbox.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

I do not believe that there are any usage stats available for iPhoto web galleries - I have not found any
A good suggestion for Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
