Hi Brian I'm using Manakin in several DSpace implementations and found very difficult to obtain examples about complex content disposition and customized presentation of data through the XSL miriad of options & files. Is there a way to share with the list some the XSL that you're using for this image gallery? I suppose that you modified item-list and use the thumb file to get the image, but could be a very good example of a complex customization.
Thanks a lot in advance Regards German 2012/2/14 Brian Stamper <[email protected]>: > Hello all, > > At Ohio State we have been running Manakin for about a year now, which we > switched to after having used the JSP interface for many years.
