Image gallery w/search

I am working with Dreamweaver 8 and Flash 8 and was wondering
how to make a image gallery. What I need is an image gallery with
upto 100 images in each category. I would like users to be able to
search (say texture) and come up with the results. If PHP is needed
where can I find a free PHP script? What is the best way this can
be done?
Thank You in Advance

>>Can this be done with Flash? If so, how.
Yes it can be done. How? You're going to need to start
reading tutorials...

Is there a way to create a CSS image gallery with caption?

Hi everyone,
Ive been using the disjoint rollover, but I only have one
thing that I want to add to it—a caption right underneath an
image.
Besides using that Project Seven plug-in, is there a way to
create an image gallery without using layers? Or is layers the only
way to do it? All I want (words of doom, huh?) is a thumbnail to be
able to switch and image and add a caption to it. Can anyone point
me in the right direction? Or is that Project Seven plug-in deal my
best bet? What about Set Text of Layer in DW.
Oh yeah, Im still using DW with CSS sprinkled in..any help?
Thanks in advance.

Of course.

That would do it, and it's not necessary that the layer stay
a layer after
you have done it, either. I do this frequently - make a
layer, apply the
behavior, and then remove the position:absolute from the div,
and place it
where I want it.
See the demo here -

Image gallery From an XML file...

Will flash reconize an XML file that is parameter based (Call
Functions) into a database to create a type of listing service to
show homes for sale?
My client is wanting a basic image gallery for now that will
later become a a fullfledged interactive document later down the
road for showing options in the homes they build. First, they have
Spec homes that they want to showcase (simply put these are homes
they already built and are sitting on the property that are move in
ready).
Step 1:
The end user would visit an HTML (CFM) document where they
would choose there search criteria.
Step 2:
then another page would show with an exterior photo of the
home, and a breif description where the user would select the home
they want to view more infomation.
Step 3:
This then would load the image viewer which is the flash
file, that would call to the XML file to load the parameters to
which home model to show.
The home will have a unique home model name in which the
photos are labeled accordingly the same way...
Exterior = ModelHomeName.jpg
Image 1 = ModelHomeName_1.jpg
Image 2 = ModelHomeName_2.jpg
Image 3 = ModelHomeName_3.jpg
Image 4 = ModelHomeName_4.jpg
Image 5 = ModelHomeName_5.jpg
etc...
Is there a certain way flash has to read the XML file with
parameters to translate it? Or what is the quickest possible way?
Thanks,
Eric

Any luck anyone?

Anyone have a good tutorial for an AS3-XML image gallery?

I'm a pretty good Flash developer, but I've never worked with XML in Flash. I'm looking for a good tutorial on creating an XML driven image gallery, but I have yet to really find anything. Does anyone out there have a good tutorial? Thanks!
Jesse

Your best bets for getting something more specific to your needs will either be to...
- search Google using terms like "AS3 XML gallery tutorial" and "AS3 XML slideshow tutorial"
- take one fairly complicated tutorial and learn how it works down to understanding each element of what is being done. Once you a proper level of understanding you should be able to reason out how to create one of your own with whatever different features you prefer

Image Gallery in Safari

Hi,
modified the demo image-gallery and finally got it working
for me properly in IE and Firefox. But finally my whole dataset
comes with undefined values in Safari. The gallery is
here
and
here's
the xml. Could anyeno be so kind and have a quick look at it and
maybe give a hint? I'm searching for hours now and don't get
further ...
Best regards,
Sebastian

Well, we are surprised we haven't seen this before but here's
what we discovered.
Safari converts uppercase letters in attributes to lowercase.
Since XML is case sensitive, therefore IMAGEID becomes
imageid. Since your data references are still uppercase, they fail
to match and you get undefined.
Uppercase attributes are rare, hence this is the first we
have seen of this error.
To see this in action, try this in your page:
<script>
var rows = datasetname.getData();
if (rows && rows.length)
alert(Spry.Utils.serializeObject(rows));
</script>
To solve this, convert your XML files to use lowercase
attribute names.
We will write this up somewhere.
Thanks for posting.
We are pleased to see a good use of Spry data, effects and
widgets on one site. I will add your site to our wiki page, if you
don't mind.

How can I place a Lightroom 3 image gallery in a Dreamweaver page?

I would like to use an image gallery that I built in Lightroom 3 in a Dreamweaver CS5 website. I would like the image gallery to operate on my Dreamweaver page, not to be re-directed to a different page.
I'm pretty sure this is possible, but in my search for help in the forums, books, etc., I am not having much luck. Perhaps I'm using the wrong search words? Help to direct me would be very much appreciated. Cheryl B.

You'll need to work in CodeView.
Copy the relevant code from your image gallery page into your site page. Adjust paths to images & scripts as necessary.
Another simpler approach, insert an iframe into your site page. Point the iframe src to your gallery.html page. Adjust iframe height and width to accommodate the size of your gallery page.

Image gallery around text

Hi there,
I'm new to web design and not 100% sure if I should be asking this in a Dreamweaver or Flash forum, but I'm hoping someone would be able to advise me on what to do.
I want to incorporate an image gallery into a Dreamweaver page. I've made the gallery in Flash. When rolling over small images at the bottom, an enlarged version will appear on top. Next to the enlarged image will be text. From what I understand, for search engine purposes, usability etc it would be better if this text was not in Flash. In fact, I would like the layout in terms of how the pics and text are positioned to be in a similar fashion as this site: http://www.calcotmanor.co.uk/meetings_events/barn.htm where the text sits next to and above the Flash elements.
I have tried this using tables in Dreamweaver and inserting the swf however I do not know how to incorporate this so that the image gallery and the enlarged image form an 'L' shape around the text. I'm not set on using Flash necessarily - if there is another way I can do this using Dreamweaver (I don't need the images to change by themselves, just to show the enlarged version when user hovers over thumbnails) then I would appreciate tips on that!
Many thanks in advance for your help!

I actually tried that and hated it. I'd be better off with manual navigation at
the bottom of each page (these are sub pages)

Image Gallery Rollover effect

First Issue: I've dynamically created the image gallery, on
rollover or mouseover i'm using the zoom in effect, on rollout i'm
using the zoom out effect (that will return to the original size).
onrollover
zm = new Zoom(timg);
zm.zoomHeightFrom = 1.2;
zm.zoomWidthFrom = 1.2;
zm.zoomHeightTo = 1;
zm.zoomWidthTo = 1;
zm.end();
zm.play();
It is working fine when the mouse is moved slowly (after
playing the full zoom), if i move rapidly (if i rollout before the
play effect finishes), the image's position will be changed. Please
give me a solution for this.
Second issue: I'm also trying to mask the image. all the
thumbnails will be inside a canvas. How to mask the image with the
sprite and use the zoom effect.
Thanks in advance.

use google to search for "flash tsunami tutorial". specify your actionscript version if needed.

many sites suggesting PHP and XML). I'd be very greatful to u all
if u could provide me some help in this part of my project.

Hi,
I have a picture show.
It creates its own folder when you first upload images with
the integrated Image uploader. Then it loads the images in with
ASP.
Have a look at

PVII Image Gallery Question

Hi,
Just purchased Image Gallery Magic. Since it's overwhelmingly
praised on this forum, I am hoping someone here can quickly help me
with a couple problems. First - here's the link:
www.intelligentbydesigngraphics.com/transcendingtime/weddings.html
Questions:
1) I've inserted the gallery into an existing site that has a
black background. There must be a way to change the background
color of the thumbnail panel to something other than white, but
how?
2) As you roll your mouse over the thumbnail panel number
boxes they get smaller, why and how do I fix it?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
P.S. I am a novice, so please take that into consideration
before replying! ;)

Can you post this on the PVII support forums?

PVII Image Gallery - Multiple

I am using the PVII extension for Image galleries. I have a current page that is updated regularly and I would like to add multiple image galleries on the one page. But when I go to add a new gallery it only offers the possiblitiy of editing the current, and only, image gallery on that page.
Is it possible to have more than one gallery on a single page?
If so, how do you crewate a new one without altering the one which already exists?
Thanks, in advance.
M

I do not use PVII, and it would be best if you ask them if it is possible to do this with their product.
But having said that, you could use fireworks or one of the other extensions from the dreamwever exchange to do this, as there would then be no code conflict.

Need Ideas for Minimalist Website and Image Gallery

I am looking for ideas for creating a minimalist online image gallery/portfolio? I want to either use html for the site and then flash for the portfolio images or some other method. I want to click on the thumbnails and then a large image will open.
Should I use Flash, Dreamweaver, Would it be easier to load the images dynamically to a folder. Does anyone have an example they could show me. Thanks.

I second Mahendra's suggestion for JAlbum Excellent product! Just so you know, you don't need to use their image hosting. Simply download the software and install it on your PC. The beauty of JAlbum is that it generates thumbnails and HTML pages for you from your folder of images. Lots of different Skins available. CSS can be customized. And you can't beat the price.
Minimalism is nice but on the web, if you don't have some real text in the HTML markup you're essentially invisible to search engines, language translators and web assisting technologies like screen readers. I realize this is a portfolio, but you want to maintain some degree of visibility so people can find you. For this reason, Flash sites don't do well. HTML is preferred.
Good luck with your project,

E65 image gallery

Hi all.
I have an issue regarding E65's image gallery and the way it works. Hopefully someone can help me out. Among other things I use my phone as my quick backup device and being a web developer you can imagine the number of gifs that are involved. All these are neatly packed in their folders and should be of no concern to the image gallery, but thats not the case. The gallery, thinking it's doing me a favor, wants to show me all images on all folders, both phone and card memory. Never mind that they're tucked away, some even 10 levels into project folders... they are all scanned.
Now this wouldn't be a problem if the file manager had an option to view images in such a way that I could open one image and click left/right for next previous image in that folder. Unfortunately that does not work and I am left looking at the photos I've taken opening every file one by one.
I had hoped that I found a solution when I discovered image gallery folders, but I cant for the life of me figure out where they're located. Even when I explicitly put an image in a different folder using the organize option it still remains right where it was saved. Why is that? Better still where are those special gallery folders saved? Or are they best left inaccessable to the end user.
So to wrap this up, can anyone suggest anything ( besides hidding all my backed up images on a file system level ) that would prevent the image gallery from scanning them? Can it be made so that the "scan everything" is off? Any software update fixes this maybe? Any 3rd party image gallery which is not as smart?
Many thanks for your help.
Kind regard,
Vince

Regardless of E or N series this is a Symbian or operating system issue in that all pics, regardles of physical location are shown in the gallery.
There are some ways of hiding or locking pics and I recommend searches on this forum to find those that are most suited to your needs
