Hello Martin and many thanks for the quick reply.
At last, an invitation to post a link to my site ... ;-)
- http://www.alanamos.de/CMSs/GetSimple/in...broschuren
(As this is a demo site it is likely that the addresses to individual pages won't work for long but I won't be deleting the CMS.)
I've not set any sizes for the thumbnails so the generated dimensions are your defaults. Whilst it's no work of art, I think is looks OK. With a bit of luck I'll manage to standardise the widths tomorrow.
Aren't you thinking of fancyBox? :-)
You're right, I've forgotten to suppress this.
I see that creating a page title and saying that "Gallery X is to be loaded into this page" is a minimum that one has to do "per hand" at the moment but after that, I wanted to keep everything to do with the galeries together as that seemed the most logical approach for my "wanting to have as little to do with HTML as possible" customer.
(My ideal-gallery-vision would be where I create a single gallery HTML page and then all the gallery subpages would be dynamically written into it as required.)
Best wishes,
Alan

mvlcek Wrote:Normally a user will display one gallery per page thus the gallery title is not displayed, as it would duplicate the page title. Regarding a description I was thinking about one, but with not displaying the title, I decided to keep it simple and not add a description, as it can be included in the page.
