OmniX, I haven't given up on helping you, I've just been very busy so it might take me a little time ... I actually started working on this script but had to put it aside for a bit.
Na thats fine im trying to tinker along, testing in each language in my own spare time.
Just completed a dogy flash photo gallery still prefering javascript one I saw on that website.
Its ok take your time, as long as you can help me in the end
I have been googling ur tips but no luck so ill have to construct something off hand in my own time or i might leave that to you and try a css or php version.
At the moment all i see possible is:
- javascript
- flash
- php
- css
Cant be done (what we require).
Even though I would like a php/css version as i reckon it would be more cleaner but I havent been able to find one
At this point I've finally got the vertical scrolling behavior I wanted to achieve ... that took longer than I expected (it always does). Next the zoom-out window and maybe some background mask-out and loading animation effects (we'll see about the latter two).
I think overall this will create a pretty nice gallery display with some fairly dynamic behaviors and the ability to adapt it to a variety of gallery needs.
Unfortunately I will have to actually do some real (paying) work here soon ;-) if I want to meet the basic survival needs I've grown so accustomed to.
I have bene trying to complete some flash photo galleries as I find when comparing all languages flash is the best option and has alot better output than javascript but I still intend on making a gallery in each language!
I used to be a real Flash guru back in the days of action script 1.0 and Flash 5 ... that was the first scripting language I learned and I've played with Flash some for CS2 and now CS3 and can figure most anything out when I sit down with it. Flash is wonderful and well supported and works the same across browsers ... just haven't been working with it like I used to.
For the behaviors I'm creating, since they are scripted, you could easily enough use them to animate movie-clip objects as DOM elements -- with very little modification.
Looking forward to seeing what you come up with. Keep me posted
It works pretty well in Firefox 3 (which I use for development) and okay in Opera 9.51 and so-so in IE 7 (which is buggy as all get-out).
Like I can't seem to establish a smooth zoom-out effect in IE so I skip that effect when it's an IE browser -- I hate doing browser sniffing, but at least know how to do it correctly.
The overall page layout-design is primitive and rather arbitrary but should be easily expandable to almost any layout desired.
Wow, I'm glad you like it ... I figured you had gone over to the other side, e.g. Flash.
When I first picked up Flash (v5) it was like *Crack* for me and action script was actually the foundation to my learning JavaScript. Now I have CS3 but don't like Adobe as much as I did Macromedia ... so I really don't do much with it anymore.
Anyway, it was a rewarding project to put together -- challenging for me but I learned a lot and it was fun
Cheers
