[WSG] Image gallery layout
Good morning My client wants her image galleries to look the same (if possible) as on her Power Point Presentation. These images (in PPP) are positioned absolutely ie a certain cm measurement from top left in each case. The images are of paintings and are NOT of uniform size so I am working with different thumbnail sizes. I have made them a uniform maximum 150px high but of course some are a lot wider and do not reach 150px vertically. http://www.westernwebdesign.com.au/sarwon/slightly.html CSS is ul#img I have tried giving them ALL a uniform height 150px regardless of width - see bottom 4 images - but of course I had to add a new bit of CSS - ul#img2 with a much wider ul#img2 li. I have explained that the site should look good at all screen resolutions and have managed to have it look OK as small as 800 x 600. What I am asking is if there is any other way to lay out an image gallery other than the way I have done (which I always use but with uniform thumbnails). I don't think she will mind if I tell her it is not possible to copy her PPP exactly as here we are dealing with a fluid background which needs to be able to change with different screen sizes but I want to be sure there is not another way I can accommodate her wishes.

This is the wrong question. Insignificant amounts of oil will probably be produced in the year 2100 and perhaps beyond. The critical date is when the peak of oil production is reached and the world's demands can no longer be supplied. From then on, there will be less and less oil to divide. It is probable that the decline of world oil production will affect more people in more ways than any other event in human history. *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
Re: [WSG] Image gallery layout
I LOVE Lightbox! Only discovered it recently and am using it on a site I¹m working on. From an accessibility standpoint it is awesome. The only complaint¹ that another developer here found was that it doesn¹t detect the user¹s flash player version (as swfObject does), but that¹s a minor concern really ... Having said that, I¹m not clear how this would assist in Lyn¹s case, but I¹m interested to see/hear!!

I already have it organised so the large image opens in a box on the same page, it is the display of the thumbnails that is the issue. Thanks for the reply, Susie, when I have time I will check out Lightbox.

[WSG] Of validation, and use of tables, etc
Hi, I was looking around at accessibility of Sharepoint and came across a kit developed by Hisoftware in conjuction with MS to improve accessibility of Sharepoint http://aks.hisoftware.com/index.html ... However noticed that there have been some comments on blogs that there is a lot of table code even in this more accessible kit for Sharepoint... Hmmm Then I decided to have a look at source code of http://hisoftware.com/ page itself - full of table info and tried to vadate it via W3C ... failed, plus page not coded properly to meet accessibility guideliness... This company sell its services to others Setting the Standard. If you're not monitoring your Web site for Accessibility you could be missing 20% (National Organization on Disability) of your audience. That's the percentage of people whose business you may be losing by not making your Web site accessible to people with disabilities. The importance of Web accessibility standards has been recognized around the world. In fact the U.S. Access Board has published a document called Web-based Intranet and Internet Information and Applications as part of Section 508, and the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has developed a set of universal guidelines for Web development titled Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0. Who's watching those who push out products to assess and monitor web and accessibility standards?

Yes - I am at this very moment working on that one and it looks like it will be successful - I just need to convert the wide rectangular images to a 150px height and I will be all set!
