I've created a plugin that grabs pictures from Picasa and shows them on a wiki page.
in terms of layout I've wrapped all images in a wrapping div, and each image in a wrapper div. My assumption being CSS can handle the layout needs. This approach will work fine for images. But I'd also like to provide the ability to display the exif, captions, comments, etc. I think the approach with most flexibility is to create some kind of template for the layout, including variables for the various attributes. This allows the author to lay out everything, and simple supply the template page as a parameter. I would need the ability to iterate across images though, which suggests some form of array structure for all the additional data. Is there a template mechanism that I can hook into? Pagelist templates look close, but I don't have a pagelist. The other way to approach this might be to allow the template format to be passed into the plugin as a string. This seems to be pretty limiting though, and might get a little limiting with vizualization, debugging, and passing hooks for the data variables. Suggestions? ~ ~ Dave _______________________________________________ pmwiki-devel mailing list pmwiki-devel@pmichaud.com http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-devel
