Editing Bridge HTML Web Gallery?

Is it possible to edit the HTML Gallery Web Gallery option in Bridge? I just want it to have file names below the thumbs and preview and it would be perfect for what I want to use it for.

I've found the location embedded down three "package content" levels:
/Applications/Adobe Lightroom.app/Contents/Plugins
/Web.agmodule/Contents/Resources/galleries
/default_html.lrwebengine/head.html
and related html files.
Reminds me of the "beware of the leopard" bit in Hitchhiker's Guide.

Bridge CS5 Renames Files in HTML Web Gallery

When creating an HTML Web Gallery (using ‘Lightroom’ template), Bridge CS5 renames the thumbs and large images to an arbitrary number. The caption reads as the original file name, but the actual image has a new name. This is problematic, as my clients will right-click selected images from my galleries to save and forward for approval, but the file name is not the same as the original.
As an example: VLNK0321.jpg is renamed as _4856316150.jpg. (In Preferences/Output, the "Convert multi-byte file names to Full ASCII" is unchecked.)
Is there any way to fix this little (for me--BIG) problem?

Solved!
This works for Windows. I imagine the Mac solution is similar. Props to William Zauscher for helping find an answer.
I take no responsibliity for any damage caused to your computer, Photoshop or Bridge...
In Windows, browse to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Bridge CS5 Extensions\Adobe Output Module\mediagallery\resources\scripts
In the file named "galleryCreator.jsxinc" replace the lines:
AOM.AmgGalleryCreator.createUniqueFileName = function(filePath, jpgFile, createMode)
    var alteredName;
    while (true)
         alteredName = "_";
        for (var i=0; i<10; i++)
             alteredName += Math.floor(Math.random() * 10);
         alteredName += ".jpg";
        var f = new File(filePath + alteredName);
        if (!f.exists)
            break;
     return alteredName;
...with the following:
AOM.AmgGalleryCreator.createUniqueFileName = function(filePath, jpgFile, createMode)
                var alteredName;
                while (true)
                                alteredName = "_";
                                alteredName += jpgFile += ".jpg";
                                var f = new File(filePath + alteredName);
                                if (!f.exists)
                                                break;
                return alteredName;
You can cut and paste the above. Just save a version of the original file somewhere in case of screwups...
Cheers!

Problem loading images in adobe bridge html photo gallery

Can someone please, please help me!? I can not figure out why the images will not load in my adobe bridge html photo gallery cs5. I am not getting any error messages in Firefox and just the x in internet explorer.
Here is the link to the gallery page on the site: http://www.irishwetlands.ie/Gallery.html
I created the gallery as a html file for compatibality reasons due to accesbility issues with flash, and followed the general insturctions. The gallery folder is called wetlandsgallery and it is loading everything style-wise except the images themselves.
I then made the gallery within an iframe so it would be more similar to the other pages on the site and contain the menu bar - but no change on the lack of images!
Having looked around online I think it might be something to do with the bin folder?? Does this have some secutity somewhere thats protecting the images? I am also unsure if I filled in the FTP info correctly when creating the site as I was getting the message "could not connect to FTP server" so I had to copy over the file from my hard drive to the server provider files. All the tutortials say to load your gallery and no mention of what to do when it won't connect to FTP server.
If you could also tell me how to edit the image sizes that would be a great help too, as any size changes I make to either the bin/large or bin/thumnail images makes no difference in what appears in the preview?
Help would be very greatfully appreciated as I am pulling my hair out trying to figure it out with no sucess and a possible bald patch!
Thanks in advance,
Áine

Hello Áine,
1. Is it really necessary to comment out this part in your source code?

Using your source code without these things I could see some of your images.
2. Looking to your website with my IE8 into image 7 (e.g.) I saw this:
what means there is a reference to a html file, not to an image. ???
3. Here it becomes interesting (completely contrary to my point 2.), looking for your path:
http://www.irishwetlands.ie/images/GalleryImages/Gallery1_Selection%20of%20IRWC%20members% 20at%20the%20Gearagh.jpg
I can see this image in my IE8 (some people in front of a "wetland". But still I've to assume (as Murray already did too), that there is something wrong with your upload and the pathes.
4. Allow me to make one brief point, we talked about here on several occasions: please don't use spaces in image, folders or filenames. I'll quote Murray: In general, URL encoding spaces does not lead to problems. ... Whatever the details are, though, using spaces in filenames or paths is a bad practice which WILL lead to problems.
5. What concerns the image sizes, maybe later (I didn't understand your question correctly I fear). There is still my language barrier, I'm sorry.

LR HTML Web Gallery -- modified version with great features is available

For anyone using the default Lightroom HTML Web Gallery, one of our associates here has offered a modified version with some great added features.
John Beardsworth's site -- Lightroom Solutions - http://lightroomsolutions.com/ -- is a wonderful resource for LR tips, plug-ins, information, etc.
The default HTML gallery is fine, but I always found it lacked features. I mentioned this to Ian Lyons (http://www.computer-darkroom.com/) a couple of years ago, and he sent me a modified version with the ability to specify up to 100 rows by using sliders instead of the grid. When I tried John's modified version, it had some other good features. I thought.... what if the two modified versions could be combined? So, I shot John an email, and low and behold, he uploaded a new version of the gallery to his site. Thank you, Ian and John!
Here is the link:
http://lightroomsolutions.com/my-tweaked-built-in-html-gallery/
Here are the added features that I find most useful:
Number of rows (up to 100) and columns can be specified using sliders rather than the grid
Thumbnail images can be sized to your specification
Filename can be placed on each thumbnail, and you specify size of text
Clicking the large image advances to the next image rather than returning to the top of the thumbnail page (no need to use the 'next' link)
See the site for other added features. (If you already have John's version, the newer version has the same file name and went online April 17, 2013.)
PLEASE NOTE: John Beardsworth's HTML gallery is NOT supported by John or Adobe, and is offered "as-is."
I hope others will find this as useful and I have.
John

I've done a version of this where the large file links to the medium and it works no problem. code is based on tutorial code I've already written..
I'd need to see more code to see where the issue might be..
Here's what I have:
(I opted not to put the files in "content", also ignore margin-top, it's not relevent to this)
AddGridPages {
template='grid.html',
rows=model.nonCSS.numRows,
columns=model.nonCSS.numCols,
AddCustomCSS {
filename='resources/css/custom.css',
AddResources {
source='resources',
destination='resources',
AddPhotoPages {
template='detail.html',
variant='_large',
destination="",
AddPhotoPages {
    template='medium.html',
    variant='_medium',
    destination="",
In medium.html
<div id="detailContainer">
<div style="margin-top:<%= margintop %>px;">
<img src="bin/images/med/<%= image.exportFilename %>.jpg" alt="$image.metadata.description"/></div>
</div>
in detail.html
<div id="detailContainer">
<div style="margin-top:<%= margintop %>px;">

Bridge CS5 web gallery custom ......

Hi,
Hoping someone can help as I'm a newbie.
I've tried using Bridge to create a web gallery but it doesn't allow me to customise the size. It only accepts 675px x 450 px, is there a way that I'm able to customise the size to fit within a current template I've already made in dreamweaver?
thanks in advance.
bridgenovice

Your best bet is to download the legacy plug in for creating web galleries. The problem with the new design is that your are basally locked into flash except for a single HTML selection that has very few adjustable parameters. The film strip option, which I favor, is limited to flash for example.
If you like flash this the default is the choice for you but if you want to make changes such as adding detailed captions editing HTML files is the way to go.

Auto fill subject with an Email link in CS4 Bridge flash web gallery

Is there a way to autofill the subject line of the email link in the CS4 Bridge flab web galleries? I can do it if I use the html gallery, but I prefer the look of the flash galleries.
If I open the "group.xml" file I see code for me email link, exp.: <contactEmail>maillto:[email protected]</contactEmail>
I tried adding the "?subject=My Subject" like I would on an html file but that didn't work. I was hoping for some suggestions.
Thanks!

I want it to work on the click of a mouse: when I run or test the page the email comes up immediately. Here is what I have so far:
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("mailto:mailto:[email protected]?subject=yoursubject&body=your message"));
/* Mouse Click Event
Clicking on the specified symbol instance executes a function in which you can add your own custom code.
Instructions:
1. Add your custom code on a new line after the line that says "// Start your custom code" below.
The code will execute when the symbol instance is clicked.
button_3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_MouseClickHandler_6);
function fl_MouseClickHandler_6(event:MouseEvent):void
     // Start your custom code
     // This example code displays the words "Mouse clicked" in the Output panel.
     trace("Mouse clicked");
     // End your custom code
So how do I get the email to open ONLY when the mouse clicks on the link??

Html web Gallery: Cell Number Size

I need to determine how to alter the size of the Cell Numbers in the :standard" Lightroom Web Gallery layout.
The numbering is too large to be clearly seen in the upper left hand corner of the cell i;e the thumbnails cover a portion of the numerals.
I'm fairly certain that my client is not going to appreciate this "feature".
How does one change the font size...either in the Lightroom Web Gallery Mode or using HTML...in Dreamweaver or otherwise?
I' will appreciate any help on this.
Thank you

I don't know of a way to influence the size of the cell numbers from within LR.
From outside LR, you have two options:
1) If you want to change the number for a specific web gallery you exported:
Open file [your_webgallery]\resources\css\master.css with a text editor
Find the section ".itemNumber" and change the value of "font-size:" from 40px to something smaller
2) If you want to make the change valid for new HTML web galleries you create:
Open file "\Shared\webengines\default_html.lrwebengine\resources\css\master.css" under your LR installation directory (C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3.2 for WinXP)
Do the same edit as above
Note that option 2 has to be repeated after every installation of (new versions) of LR.

Bridge CS5 web gallery plays locally but won't launch online

After creating a slide show in Bridge CS5.1, the preview within Bridge and in my browsers work fine after turning off popup supression. I then upload to my site, and the only thing that displays is a blank page.
http://www.siebenthalercreative.com/safeservices/
Safeservices is the folder created by Bridge Web Gallery.
If I try to launch the swf file directly
http://www.siebenthalercreative.com/safeservices/resources/gallery.swf
it is unable to load.
I've tried with several of the default templates and the results are consistent.
Ultimately I want to customize the default index.html to a template page but first it has to run online.
thanks

nothing in bridge's preferences refer to the output controls. any help
appreciated.
In general you don't need to reinstall at first trouble. A restart holding
down option key and from the pop up menu resets all preferences to default
settings including the default workspaces.
But could you be a little more specific about your workflow, f.i. on what
output you are clicking for the module (the default workspace, the icon or
menu view-workspace-output) And does that window look as output containing
at least the content panel, preview panel and output panel with all its
settings (document-lay out-overlays-header etc).
Maybe you can provide a screenshot of what you are seeing when in output?

Bridge CS4 Web Gallery upload

I can make the web gallery ok and ask Bridge to upload to server. Bridge connects to server and goes through the process of uploading. Slow but finaly says 'upload complete'.
Problem is that no such file appears on the server. Where does it go? or does it even exist.
I tried naming a folder for the upload but that freezes up part way through the upload.
I can save to disk and upload via ftp but when attempting to access on the website I just get an error message.
Anyone make sense of this?
imac - OS 10.5.6

I have had this issue and have not been able to make a functioning website using bridge.
Adobe has been unable to help me with this problem. They told me it was from my server.
Has anyone ever been able to make a website using bridge?
Here is my test site:
http://www.erinpatriceobrien.com/preview/maya/
This is what my server responded to me when I approached them with the issue.
the path to the xml file is not correct. so im thinking they missed a
step on the setup. or something got moved. who knows.
i downloaded the whole thing locally to test and it wont work on my
system either. again there is an xml file that references the images
that is not being loaded by the index.html page.
...which is located here:
http://erinpatriceobrien.com/preview/maya/resources/group.xml
and working fine.
the images are accessible too:

Edit Photoshop Flash Web Gallery

Hi!
I'm completely new to Flash but I've been trying to edit the
Flash gallery 1 included in Photoshop CS2. What I like to do is to
make links from the title in the head. I figured out how I can copy
the code for the email field that already exists. But I cant really
understand how I change it so it works on a webpage instead of an
email.
The template I'm using can be downloaded here:
Photoshop
Flash Web Gallery
I found the specific code in title.class.as
The code I want to change looks like this:
if (email != undefined) {
var emailObj = this.createEmptyMovieClip('email_mc',
this.nextDepth())
emailObj.beenClicked = false;
//trace ('we have email info it is '+email);
currentY -= titleH2.size;
emailObj.createTextBlock('email_txt', currentX, currentY,
'dynamic', titleH2, 1600, 20, false, false, true, false, email,
config.embedFont, false);
emailObj.email_txt._width = emailObj.email_txt.textWidth+10;
emailObj.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.link.toHex();
emailObj.onRollOver = emailObj.onDragOver = function () {
//trace("over");
this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.link.toHex();
emailObj.onRollOut = emailObj.onDragOut = function () {
//trace("out");
if (this.beenClicked == false){
this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.link.toHex();
} else {
this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.vlink.toHex();
emailObj.onPress = function () {
//trace("out");
this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.alink.toHex();
emailObj.onRelease = function () {
this.beenClicked = true;
this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.vlink.toHex();
mailTo ( email)
//trace("release");
What I want to do is to create a link in the code for:
if (one != undefined) {
//trace ('we have a one it is '+one+' that is '+one.length);
currentY -= titleH2.size;
this.createTextBlock('one_txt', currentX, currentY,
'dynamic', titleH2, 1600, 20, false, false, true, false, one,
config.embedFont, false);
Lets say that I want it to link to a page called one.htm
How do I do this?

This would be the least instrusive hack I can find that may get you around the problem. In the js fle there is a function...
function detectFlash(ver) {
if (getFlashVersion() >= ver) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
Try changing this function to...
function detectFlash(ver) {
if (getFlashVersion() >= ver) {
return true;
} else {
return true;
This should eliminate making the text appear. If not, there's another thing you can try.
A better approach wuld be to use more up to date embedding code, though I cannot say whether the js file is written specifically for this Flash application such that it includes code that talks to the Flash file.

Adding Rows to HTML Web Gallery

I am satisfied with Lightroom over all, but there is one item, I could not use at moment -> the web-gallery. I would like to use the standard HTML Gallery, but I need to add more rows. Wish: 3 columns, 8-9 rows (at moment I use Fotostation to built up my web galleries in this way -> see http://www.npx-photo.com -> click on a picture to get to the gallery).
Is it possible to change the code of the standard gallery? Does anyone has had the same problem and solved it?
Any help would be great to make my life much easier ;-)

Don't know if this helps you at all. It's not LR of course.....
In CS2 Adobe added two Flash-based templates you can use for your online Web Photo Gallery. Even cooler is the fact that you can now add a background music track to one of these Flash galleries. Just follow these steps: First find the MP3 audio track you want to use as your background music and rename the file as "useraudio.mp3". Then open your Photoshop CS2 application folder and navigate to Presets>Web Photo Gallery. Inside that folder look for either Flash Gallery 1 or Flash Gallery 2. Depending on which gallery you chose within Photoshop, drag-and-drop your audio file into the corresponding folder. That's it! You've got background music.

Lightroom 2.7- HTML Web Gallery

Hello all,
I've been using Web Gallery features to produce picture pages but I would like to incorporate them into my existing web pages (with or without a background. I'd like to continue to use Lightroom because of it's ease of use to allow me to create the web sized photos (in the two web optimized sizes), without the backgrounds such that that HTML code can be dropped onto another prebuilt page and updated easily, perhaps coding it in such a way as to allow input from Lightroom?.
Have you come across this problem? Is there a way that you've found to accomplish this?
Here's an example of what I've built so far:
http://a0700308.uscgaux.info/_images/flotilla38_2010_picturepages/index.html
Here's an example of an existing page that I'd like to be able to update my "PicturePages" web gallery onto.
http://a0700308.uscgaux.info/flotilla38_blankpage.htm
The whole concept is to do this and still allow the pictures to be updated from a Lightroom web gallery so they can be added/changed/deleted easily. Appreciate any help...
Henry

If you are able to save out the page that you want to include the gallery into as a .php file, then you can include the Lightroom gallery file in there using PHP Includes:
Doing it this way will allow you to easily publish your Lightroom gallery without being afraid to overwrite the old customized HTML page.

Customizing Bridge CS4 Web Gallery to fit my website

Love the improved web gallery option in Bridge CS4...is there a way that I can make it work within my existing website? I'd like to have my top logo graphic and navigation bar appear above the gallery on the same page so that it integrates well.
Thanks!
Mark

Thanks...I figured out that if I open the Index.htm page in my web site editor (MSFT Expression Web) and add the images for the logo and nav bar at the top of the page, the code adjusts to move the gallery down. That's all I need to make it work...
Mark

Web Module: Works great, but is it possilble to publish an HTML web gallery that does not use thumbnails, but just displays all photos (one above another)?

It would be nice if a published web gallery did not require clicking or sliding in order to view a new picture. Is there a template that just puts up every image in the gallery, full-size, one above another? That's how I like my webpages - see, for example, www.sgrhoa.net/betz/150205/ .
Thanks!
Bill

The built-in templates do not do that. At a quick glance, none of the available templates from Adobe's site do that either.
