Hey everyone,
I'm having trouble linking images together. Its confussing to explain, but perhaps you can check out this link below: www.itsbiggerthan.com If you go to the gallery section you can flick through images using only one forward button. I want to put one of these buttons onto my webpage and do the same with my pictures but don't know how. Can anyone explain how as I'm using dreamweaver, or if you know the html code then that would be great. I've managed to link one picture, I can't continue to link the others to the same button. Thanx, Aminah |

Hi Aminah,
You can't do this with HTML alone, at least without making a page for each image and manaully entering the code for the image name/ link on each page. You'll need to use Javascript, Flash, or a server side technology like PHP. Without knowing your skills, I'd say javascript would be the easiest way to get the result you are looking for. Try posting in the javascript section, it should be a fairly basic script. Cheers, Jim. |

Re: Linking Images (HELP)
How many images are going to be in this gallery? Do you want to be able to move through the images without loading a new page each time? Are the images stored in a database or just in an image directory? Answering questions like these will help decide the most pratical route. |

Re: Linking Images (HELP)
Those questions are good, I never even thought. They will be loaded onto the same page and theres about 10 images. It would be easier to have the images stored in an image directory I think.

Re: Linking Images (HELP)
One option might be to load each of the images into seperate divs when the page first loads. Use css positioning to place them in the same spot on the page and control the display attribute to reveal one at a time. Each images div would be given an id such as 'image1', 'image2', etc. Each time you click the button, a function checks the id of the currently displayed image div, hides that one and reveals the next one in sequence. How you intend to use these images and for what purpose might influence this approach. |
