Nice, I might use it, but not too sure if I will. It's definitely a feature that it didn't have compared to Lightbox so good stuff!

To be honest I only added it because it was so easy to do :$

One day soon I will actually get around to adding useful features like next/prev navigation :$

Why are you wasting time re-inventing a heavily cloned wheel, instead of working on something useful (like the fizzy document thing)? :/

Because I wanted to :p I was curious about some things, and this satisfied my curiosity.

I will carry on with Soda at some point, too.

Grrr! Why can't you be curious about things which are more useful! :(

 


Also... whoever created this thread... I keep looking at the status bar and thinking there are two damned unread messages! :'C

I am still learning, Peter :(

(no but really, I've only been doing web-based programming since around October last year)

Huh?

WTF sort of stuff were you doing before that then?


Whilst I'm generally not opposed to people re-inventing wheels for learning purposes, I'd probably still say it's better to learn from and extend an existing solution.

If more people (both new and experienced) spend more time on improving current stuff, there'd be more half-decent software around, instead of not only everything being crap, but it being even harder to find the slightly less crap stuff amongst all the unfinished experiments. :(


/me stops ranting and goes to find food.

Working in Blockbuster then Jessops, then doing data-entry, then fixing HMRC computers, then attempting to work out what I was supposed to be doing in an understaffed and underexplained repair team fixing Tesco hardware (and by 'hardware' I mean everything from receipt printers to IBM RS/6000s to those 'pay at pump' things they have in petrol stations).

No I meant programming-wise - I thought you'd written lots of stuff?

But since you brought it up... are you the reason the fecking petrol pump never has any bloody receipts available!? :@

Hah, no, I was only dealing with them for a month or so before I left. I don't think we ever did figure out what we were supposed to do with them. They didn't even have a manufacturer label on them. I'm not even sure they were supplied by Fujitsu in the first place.

 

I have done programming in the past, yes, but that was about 10 years ago, and, except for one program, never anything involving a network.

Hello. I added another thing: image captions! They work like this:
HTML code:
<a href="big_img.jpg"
  rel="quickslide"
  title="THIS IS A CAPTION, RIGHT HERE"
>foobar</a>
I also changed the way the loading spinner thing is handled – there's no need to specify it in the options any more; instead you just use CSS:
CSS code:
#quickslide-popup-box.loading {
  background-image: url("loading-spinner.gif");
  background-position: center;
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  width: 16px;
  height: 16px;
}

I just thought I'd add that it seems to work as I'd expect it to on my Android tablet on the stock browser. So thumbs up!

Heh :D

It also only started working with the 'fixed' thing on iOS since version 5 - before that I think mobile Safari just displayed it as position: absolute instead.

Quick question. Not sure if it's my end (yj). Checked in Chrome 18 and FF 11 on Win7 and if an image used is a transparent PNG you can still see the loading spinner after it is loaded. Is it a case of the image generally hiding the spinner?

 

I've also noticed that FF doesn't resample scalled PNGs like Chrome does, eugh.

The spinner isn't removed once the image is loaded, so as you've noticed, if the image is transparent in the middle you can still see the spinner :$

I'll have a go at fixing it now.

It's not personally a problem. I'll make my PNGs have a background. They'll look better with one. Just something I noticed since the images I've been exporting as PNGs automatically have no background.

Updated. The box gets a 'loaded' class now once the image has fully loaded.

Have you thought about adding the ability to group images into sets or albums so it's possible to navigate through them? Preferably with direction keys.

 

I guess replicating lightbox abilities but with your better resizing.
