Title: Image Gallery in Nettalk WS
Post by: johanl on March 02, 2012, 01:44:40 AM

Hello

I need to create a gallery of images dynamically that the user can select and order from. I am not sure how to accomplish this in terms of having more than one image on a page and having the size and position correct.

Any suggestions on how to accomplish this?

Regards
Johan

there are a bunch of ways to display multiple images.
For example, you could create a browse with images in it.
Or use the new "Gallery" form field type.

cheers

Hello Bruce

Was thinking about 6 thumbnails next to each other, i want to create the ability for a client to place an order of the image.

I theory it will be possible to create a in-memory file that contains the image refs and display that in say 6 columns in the browse am I correct in saying that?

Is there any documentation on the gallery control?

Regards

Johan,

not much in the way of docs for the gallery control yet - but it's pretty intuitive.
docs for the javascript object are here  http://coffeescripter.com/code/ad-gallery/ if you're interested in that sort of thing.
Example 26 (FileUpload) is a good place to start.

sure.
