JavaScript - Can Anyone Figure Out How To Center This Slideshow Of Images
Hi people, I am using a drupal module, views slideshow, it displays images on my site, the landscape sized images are showing fine, however the portrait images are not centered but aligned left and they look cramped over to one side, I have tried css and its not working for sure, this is the script, Im sorry but I no absolutely no javascript so if anyone can figure this one out I will owe you one. I guess it will need to check for the largest width in the slideshow and then half this for the centre. the link to the file is here aswell http://www.2shared.com/document/3kyc...slideshow.html

Thank you very much for your help. pro298 I'm trying to center a javascript fading-slideshow. The javascript slideshow is 1100 pixels wide. I want it centered even if the visitor's resolution is 1024px wide or less, plus I want the website to not introduce a left-right scroll bar. Is this possible?

Help me out! I recently installed a dynamic slideshow on my server and tried eliminating the background from "black" to "none" in the fadeslideshow.js so I could use transparent images to reveal the blue background on my site, but for some reason slide 1 stays on screen when switching to slide 2... not sure what to do, would appreciate any help. Thanks, Josh. please visit to view slideshow error http://www.scannmarketing.com Hi everybody, I have written a javascript slideshow with pause-play-next-previous buttons, but the images are too many and users have to wait too long especially with slower connections - i wonder if anybody can suggest a way to implement the script with fast preloading of the first few images, increment preloading or a similar trick. I will copy my code below but i also copy first this link: http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/...entslide.shtml which is an example of increment loading slideshow working fine! my problem is i am quite new to javascript and i wouldnt know how to customize it in order to take away the link function, that i dont need, and add captions and buttons etc. Any advice in one of the two directions (working on my own script below or customizing the linked one above) would be very very appreciated! Also alternative ideas (i.e. some solutions using pure CSS) are welcome! I do know some jquery plugin could do but i am trying to go more into the code, even though i still need a lot of advices and tutorials, the goal is solving this specific problem but also learning! Thx a lot in advance. Here my code (just 2 images here in the list to make it shorter for you, the complete list is more than 50 pics!): Code: <script language="JavaScript"> <!-- var interval = 8000; var random_display = 0; var imageDir = "portraits/"; var imageNum = 0; didascalieArray = new Array(); imageArray = new Array(); didascalieArray[imageNum] = "caption1"; imageArray[imageNum++] = new imageItem(imageDir + "image1.jpg"); didascalieArray[imageNum] = "caption2"; imageArray[imageNum++] = new imageItem(imageDir + "image2.jpg"); var totalImages = imageArray.length; function imageItem(image_location) { this.image_item = new Image(); this.image_item.src = image_location; } function get_ImageItemLocation(imageObj) { return(imageObj.image_item.src) } function getNextImage() { if (random_display) { imageNum = randNum(0, totalImages-1); } else { imageNum = (imageNum+1) % totalImages; } var new_image = get_ImageItemLocation(imageArray [imageNum]); document.getElementById("didascalia").innerHTML = didascalieArray[imageNum]; return(new_image); } function getPrevImage() { if(imageNum-1 < 0) { imageNum = totalImages-1; } else imageNum = (imageNum-1) % totalImages; var new_image = get_ImageItemLocation(imageArray [imageNum]); document.getElementById("didascalia").innerHTML = didascalieArray[imageNum]; return(new_image); } function prevImage(place) { var new_image = getPrevImage(); document[place].src = new_image; } function switchImage(place) { var new_image = getNextImage(); document[place].src = new_image; var recur_call = "switchImage('"+place+"')"; timerID = setTimeout(recur_call, interval); } // --> </script> Okay, so I've been trying to pick up JavaScript and JQuery. And I have a few questions, would be very grateful for answers: -If I'm making a sliding image gallery with JQuery, how do I store my images in an array? I take it this is the best way? I've made a JQuery gallery by assigning each image an ID, and hiding the ones that aren't required. This looks like bad practice though. I take it it should work with a standard JavaScript array, then reference the position of the image I've loaded? like [0][1][2] etc, but something must be amiss in my code. So basically, I've animated my image in, and there's a next button that I want to take me to the next image in the sequence. Can anyone give me a tip? Thanks a lot.

Thanks, Josh. please visit to view slideshow error http://www.scannmarketing.com Hi, i have a slideshow that works. I want to store my images in a folder images/slideshow/1.jpg for all my images up to 10.jpg. I have tried to adjust the code so i can store the images in a folder but the code cant find the images. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you. I have this code in the head section: <script type="text/javascript"> thisImg=1; imgCt=10; function newSlide(direction) { thisImg = thisImg + direction; if(thisImg <1) {thisImg = imgCt;} if(thisImg > imgCt) {thisImg = 1;} document.getElementById('slideshow').src=thisImg + '.jpg'; } </script> I have this code in the body section: <form> <img src="1.jpg" id="slideshow" alt="Photo slideshow" width="213" height="184" > <p> <input type="button" value="<-- Previous photo" onClick="newSlide(-1)"> <input type="button" value="Next photo -->" onClick="newSlide(1)" > </p> </form> Hi I have set an overall size for the Slideshow 2! div in the CSS file as follows: .slideshow { height:250px; margin: 0 auto; width:420px; } I would then like all the images I use in the slideshow to fit within this area (i.e. 420 x 250). The images will all have a height of 250px, but different widths. For widths less than 420px I would like the image to be positioned centrally in the div along the horizontal axis as in the following image: for images wider than 420px I would like them to be positioned centrally in the div along the vertical axis as in the following image: I wonder if it's possible to achieve this with Slideshow 2! and if not, whether another script will help me achieve this? Thanks Nick Alrighty so here's what I have. Live example: http://www.thestrikeforum.com/ex/ It's a image slideshow that dynamically gets all the images (via php) in the current directory and puts them into the slideshow array. The array then randomly displays the images in the slideshow (via javascript). There are 5 images in the folder rotateimage which also has the php script getimages.php in it. Currently only the first image fades in however I want all the images to fade in as the first one does. Codes: Php script that gets all the images for the array: PHP Code: <? //PHP SCRIPT: getimages.php Header("content-type: application/x-javascript"); //This function gets the file names of all images in the current directory //and ouputs them as a JavaScript array function returnimages($dirname=".") { $pattern="(\.jpg$)|(\.png$)|(\.jpeg$)|(\.gif$)"; //valid image extensions $files = array(); $curimage=0; if($handle = opendir($dirname)) { while(false !== ($file = readdir($handle))){ if(eregi($pattern, $file)){ //if this file is a valid image //Output it as a JavaScript array element echo 'galleryarray['.$curimage.']="'.$file .'";'; $curimage++; } } closedir($handle); } return($files); } echo 'var galleryarray=new Array();'; //Define array in JavaScript returnimages() //Output the array elements containing the image file names ?> Main html page with the javascript: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <script src="rotateimage/getimages.php"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> var curimg=0 var max=galleryarray.length var random=Math.floor(Math.random()*max) function rotateimages(){ document.getElementById("slideshow").setAttribute("src", "rotateimage/"+galleryarray[random]) //curimg=(curimg<galleryarray.length-1)? curimg+1 : 0 random=Math.floor(Math.random()*max) } function initImage() { imageId = 'slideshow'; image = document.getElementById(imageId); setOpacity(image, 0); image.style.visibility = 'visible'; fadeIn(imageId,0); } function setOpacity(obj, opacity) { opacity = (opacity == 100)?99.999:opacity; // IE/Win obj.style.filter = "alpha(opacity:"+opacity+")"; // Safari<1.2, Konqueror obj.style.KHTMLOpacity = opacity/100; // Older Mozilla and Firefox obj.style.MozOpacity = opacity/100; // Safari 1.2, newer Firefox and Mozilla, CSS3 obj.style.opacity = opacity/100; } function fadeIn(objId,opacity) { if (document.getElementById) { obj = document.getElementById(objId); if (opacity <= 100) { setOpacity(obj, opacity); opacity += 10; window.setTimeout("fadeIn('"+objId+"',"+opacity+")", 100); } } } window.onload=function(){ setInterval("rotateimages()", 2500) initImage() } </script> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <title>Test</title> </head> <body> <img src="rotateimage/pic1.jpg" name="slideshow" width="350" height="350" id="slideshow"/> </body> </html> If anyone could assist me in doing so or can help me find a better way to do the fading images for the slideshow feel free to share.. here's the main page code WITHOUT the fading code: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <script src="rotateimage/getimages.php"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> var curimg=0 var max=galleryarray.length var random=Math.floor(Math.random()*max) function rotateimages(){ document.getElementById("slideshow").setAttribute("src", "rotateimage/"+galleryarray[random]) //curimg=(curimg<galleryarray.length-1)? curimg+1 : 0 random=Math.floor(Math.random()*max) } window.onload=function(){ setInterval("rotateimages()", 2500) initImage() } </script> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <title>Test</title> </head> <body> <img src="rotateimage/pic1.jpg" name="slideshow" width="350" height="350" id="slideshow"/> </body> </html> PLEASE! I NEED HELP! I inherited this problem from a client who insists on keeping this template. I've got all of the images in the correct folder, the slideshow css is correct, but I'm not sure how to edit the Slideshow.js file to show the 2 additional images. The first 3 images work perfectly.

You can see the current iteration he http://www.pauljameswilliams.com/portfolio.html I am using hte plug in galleria, and I have got it working in a stand alone version with the same images and and folder structure. The difference may be that I have the content nested in these div tags? to create tabs. i really don't know. Here is the structure within the portfolio tab, under the Identity heading: ( there will be more images once I get this working: Code: <div> <div class="demo"> <ul class="gallery_demo galleria"> <li><img src="images/portfolio01.jpg" alt="Flowing Rock" title="Flowing Rock Caption"></li> <li><img src="images/portfolio02.jpg" alt="Stones" title="Stones - from Aple images"></li> <li><img src="images/portfolio03.jpg" alt="Grass Blades" title="Apple nature desktop images"></li> </ul> <div class="galleria_container"></div> <p class="nav"><a href="#" onclick="$.galleria.prev(); return false;">previous</a> | <a href="#" onclick="$.galleria.next(); return false;">next</a></p> </div> </div> I can give you more code if necesary, but I don't want to overwhelm anyone. thanks. Ok, I am in a small pickle here. I created a sidebar gadget for work originally with only 4 images that needed to cycle though it. Easy enough script done. Now they have 6 images that need to rotate through. Easy enough again, script done. The issue I have is now I have to re-push this updated html file to all 1000 PC's on my network. Plus every time a change is made I will have to do it again. And we change the images multiple times a month. So what I need help doing if its possible is to modify the html file i am listing below to have a second IF parameter that not only steps the image but also checks to see if the file is even there. This is the spot I need help at. Code: function slideit(){ if (!document.images) return document.images.slide.src=eval("image"+step+".src") whichimage=step if (step<10) step++ else step=1 I wanted to add another part to the IF statement like maybe. Code: If (step<10 && file_exists("http://www.akronlibrary.org/Gadget/Gadget Pic 1.bmp")) Basically a step that checks to see if I have at that moment a file named gadet pic 1. (I would do or statements for all of the file names) The point is to make this whole thing dynamic, so that I change image 1 on the server and every gadget on every PC looking for image 1 now see the new image. This way I just change the image file name when I want a different image to display. Same thing with the var for the slidelink function. points to a static named html file on my web server and I just change the redirect in the static named html file to go where i want it. I am by NO means a programmer, I am actually a network admin that came up with this idea and I am trying to fumble through it. Thanks in advance!

I don't want all the images to download as you come to the website as this would take forever. Are there any pretty simple slideshows that load images just before they are about to come in the view?

Join Date Jun 2002 Location London, England Posts 18,371 Thanks 204 Thanked 2,573 Times in 2,551 Posts How will the program know which image is "about" to come into view? Or are they viewed sequentially? If so there is no need for preloading images to take "forever". Preload the first (say) 5 and then preload the rest while the user is viewing the first ones. Or when each "next" image is selected for viewing preload the next following one. I want these images to center align when they have focus (clicked, enlarge), can't figure out how to move them over from the right. js file attached. Some .css may come into play here also, but I think this animation issue is all .js. http://backstageweb.net/MovingBoxes/ Thanks, John I dont think anyone can write a code for this because i cant find it anywhere.. I keep trying to write javascript but i just cant grasp it.... and my website is really falling behind.. basically THIS SITE'S total price section and the whole construct of the ability to have everything listed like that and work the way it does is what i want... if i could get the simple version of the code used to make that happen i could continue on and write all the rest... just variables and less than i and document.getWhatever is confusing the crap outta me... but like i said earlier i dont expect anyone here can help me so its alright... but if anyone actually can ILL LOVE YOU FOREVER!!!! <% content_for :scripts do %> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $('.list-tag li a').click(function() { division_id = $(this).attr('id'); division_title = $(this).text(); org_id = <%= @current_org.id %>; org_type = "<%= @current_org.class.to_s %>"; divisionSelected(division_id, division_title, org_id, org_type); return false; }); I have a javascript platform that isn't working correctly. IE 8 is complaining about the line in red, and IE 7 is giving me a syntax error for line in green. Anyone have any advice or suggestions? What in the world is wrong with this? I have been looking at it for hours. Code: $.ajax({ url: "wifitos.html", type: "GET", dataType: "html", error: function(){ $("#loading").html("Error Loading Site. Try again later.");}, beforeSend: function(){ $("#loading").show("fast");}, complete: function(){ $("#loading").hide("fast");}, success: function(html){ $("#panel_content").show("slow"); $("#panel_content").html(html); } }); All the HTML tags are right. It shows the loading properly, but does not return an error and just says loading forever without loading wifitos.html. Help appreciated! FIXED! DON'T REPLY TO THIS THREAD: After hours of trying to figure this out, I find it 10 sec after I post this thread. Go figure. It was because I had a return false before the ajax. |
