Site tech notes

I design and build websites and this one refects several current waves in the web world. It’s built in standards-compliant CSS/XHTML, with Flash elements. A Flash plugin is required to view the images. The slideshows are Flash elements created with the SlideShowPro extension. They pull conventional jpegs onto the page using an XML document, or PHP/MySQL database. The layout uses tables for width adjustment, which is a little old-fashioned but effective.

The ability to change states in the left panel is controlled with javascript, but in the rare event that javascript is not enabled on the visitor’s browser, the ‘galleries’ page link allows access to all the image pages.

Many ways of showing images pepper the web. If you'd like help getting your images online, contact me at cosmicidea.com

 

How to work the slideshows

Use the left and right arrow keys to move forward and backward through the images one at a time. Use the up and down arrow keys to move by groups of thumbnail images. Use the spacebar to stop and start the slideshow.
