AjaxGallery


This action is actually only partly based on ajax techniques and is my first aproach to this kind of enhancements.

What it can do


What it cannot do (yet)



Demo

Prerequisites / Installation


Your server needs GD support for PHP installed for the resizement work. Furthermore this extension depends on two JavaScript libraries: Prototype and script.aculo.us. They need to be placed in a subdirectory "scripts" in the wiki directory. Make sure you copy the .htaccess file from the action directory to this subdirectory!

For your convenience: scripts.zip (prototype 1.4.0 and script.aculo.us 1.5.3)

You need to add these style definitions to your stylesheet. Of course you can change them to suit you needs (size position etc).

#viewer {
position:absolute;
width:84%;
height:84%;
top:50px;
left:50px;
}

#viewer[id] {
position:fixed;
top:50px;
left:50px;
bottom:50px;
right:50px;
}


Those two files need to be placed in the actions directory:

actions/ajaxgallery.php

Problems


This doesn't work that well with IE for several reasons: First IE 5+ doesn't understand the css option position:fixed which is needed to display the viewer correctly. I added a workaround for that but there are probably better ways to deal with it out there. Any help would be apreciated. I have not tested this with the IE 7 Beta, would anybody be so kind?
--Isn't the correct term used in Web Programming static instead of fixed, like when you want a background to stay still as you scroll down a page?
