Hi Rocco, I was getting excited about this because it was working so well. However for some weird reason, if I click a portrait photo, then a landscape, then a portrait photo, it resizes great, but if I dare to click a landscape photo twice at any point, all the photos stretch again. I don’t understand how it can half work! LOL

click the middle two thumbnails, then try switching and you’ll see what I mean

Hello. What you said was very useful thank you. At least everything fits on the screen now. Although I really didn’t want the taller images to be cropped at the bottom. The border seems to stop dead too. I was hoping for something which would resize any photo reguardless of it’s size or shape, without going outside the space I’ve saved for it. Has anyone anymore suggestions? I’ve tried experimenting with different height and width values, and even wrappers and min/max height value, but I don’t think my coding skills is up to it.
I’m now as far as:
<td valign=top>
<script type="text/javascript">
function LoadGallery(pictureName,imageFile,titleCaption,captionText)
{
var picture = document.getElementById(pictureName);
if (picture.filters)
{
picture.style.filter="blendTrans(duration=1)";
picture.filters.blendTrans.Apply();
}
picture.src = imageFile;
if (picture.filters)
{
picture.filters.blendTrans.Play();
}
document.getElementById(titleCaption).innerHTML=captionText;
}
</script>
<style type="text/css">.placeholder {
float:left;
height:340px;
width:470px;
overflow:hidden
}
</style><div class="placeholder">
<img src="images/optimised gallery/Photos/h1.jpg" alt="Photo gallery" name="duncanGallery" " id="duncanGallery" style="border: 2px black solid"></div><div id=duncanGalleryCaption>Mummy's Pumpkin</div>
<td valign=top><table width="177" border="0" cellspacing="3" cellpadding="3">
<tr>

Hello. Thanks for the suggestion. I tried what you said and it stopped the warping and worked horizontally. However it displayed the portrait images at the same width at the landscape images (if that makes any sense) – so what I ended up with was everytime I clicked on a thumbnail linked to a portrait image, it would balloon up so huge you’d have to scroll down the browser window to see the whole thing. What I was wanting was something like an imagery box, that all the photos would fit inside at their correct scale, without going outside the box reguardless of their shape and dimensions.

Just to throw my 10 pence in, both my partner and I use https://www.daily.co.uk and we’ve never had any problems. We have pretty small and basic sites, but I’ve never noticed an interruption apart from when they have scheduled a little maintenance – and that only seems to be 2 hours a year. The customer service is brilliant though if you ever have a REAL problem (or even if the mistake is on your side they still investigate), and I’ve found the set-up guides quite mac friendly.

I’m afraid you’re not that lucky, he’s 8 months old. I’d uploaded several ‘home’ pages each with slight code variations sort of stabbing wildly in the dark for one that would work. I kept imputing the dates then pasting over it so many times I decided to not bother until I had something that worked, and do it last.
The script is now fully operational at..

I think the problem was that I was trying to put the whole code in the table where I wanted it displayed because most of the body was locked in the page template I’d made, and I didn’t want to start changing that when it took me hours to make it to a servicable standard!
REALLY thank you SO much

It’s working brilliantly now. Thank you very much for all your trouble. You’re a 24 carat diamond! What a headache, time to open the wine.

Thank you for your help, but I fear I’ve made it worse now.

I’m bundling through dreamweaver with no knowledge of web basics, using the templates have just confused me further. I’m sure I’ve still got stuff in the wrong place and I don’t understand it because I’ve a countdown to christmas timer on the index page which works fine. Gonna go and sleep on it I think.

Thanks Curtis… I am still stumbling a little bit, but getting nearer!

I can’t seem to get it to work within the table I’ve created. The text is there but the months and days are not. Perhaps I have an error somewhere in he code? Will keep pressing on.

Hello, I’ve a stupid question to add to this….
I’ve just installed Final Cut Pro 5 and the application won’t run, I get an error message saying: Missing AGP Graphics Card. I have an imac G5 with a ATI Radeon X600 XT Card which says: Quartz Extreme – Supported. So why is it not working?
