Yet another image viewer

  • I’ve got a very rough image viewer written and up on my page. It uses a popup window to display selected images. You can then print, email, save, the images. The saved image should be the full-size (approx. 2000×1000 px) whereas the viewed image is 640×480 px.

    I would appreciate comments on usability, especially as to different browsers. I’m a newbie at javascript and php, so there are probably rough edges all over the place.

    Please look at the Image Test Post only; none of the earlier posts have the new functionality.

    (and if anyone wants a copy of the alpha code, let me know.)

    Thanks,

    OOPS! Fixed an access problem to the php script. Apologies; I think it affected MSIE but not Firefox… Hopefully all is well now.

    That looks very nice. I noticed it only works on the 2 test posts. Is that because the other posts are not using the function? Also, if you have more than one image in a post, will it allow you to scroll through each one with prev/next buttons?
    Thanks, jim

    Yes, the post has to have some specific magic incantations to make it work… Only the two test posts have the correct href tags. ??

    As for the next/prev buttons, that’s version 2. Seriously, if someone could provide some guidance as to how to parse the text of the post for specific text in a plugin I would be happy to attempt it. In fact, that’s high on my list as soon as I get this working.

    AFAICT, the plugin would have to parse the text of the post for the img … tags and build the links. Not hard, but I am completely new to wordpress/php/javascript, so some hints would be good.
