super newbie photo show idea, HELP!

Post by nonstopflights »

I'm looking to revamp my photo portfolio website.

what i want is thumbnails on the bottom of the page and when you click on them, it loads the image about the thumbs.

Is there a way in PHP to get them to dynamically load the thumbnails when clicked? or is this a javascript area?

If I understand what you want, you need JS with onClick event.

EDIT: the thumbs you can create with PHP.

Not entirely sure what you're looking for, but you may want to look at: http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/

sorry about not being 100% clear. I think I will go ahead and use Lightbox.

But, now that someone mentioned it, how do i make thumbnails from the larger files using PHP.

thanks guys!

Also worth a look is http://gallery.menalto.com/ - I tried it some years back and found it a bit cumbersome, but that was version 1.x - if I recall correctly, they've revamped the whole thing a bit for the current release (2.x).
