Preparing your photos to match what the CSS is expecting to find

  1. Duplicate your photos so that you'll always have copies of your original photos!!!!!!!
  2. Crop and/or resize your duplicated photos with dimensions of 1000x750 pixels
  3. Rename your photos in a sequence 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg, 4.jpg, ...
  4. Move your photos to your Websites/project#/images folder
  5. Copy and paste the codes below

Scripts needed (copy and paste inside <head>)

Check that you only have ONE of each line in your <head> - in other words, don't duplicate any of the lines of code below

Here's the HTML code

Inside your article or section, copy and paste the code below - change the captions for each photo


<div id="galleryBox">
<div id="allSlices">
<div class="slice" id="slice1">
<span>Photo 1 caption</span><!-- Each photo has a unique caption -->
<span>Photo 2 caption</span>
<span>Photo 3 caption</span>
<span>Photo 4 caption</span>
<span>Photo 5 caption</span>
<span>Photo 6 caption</span>
<span>Photo 7 caption</span>
<span>Photo 8 caption</span>
<span>Photo 9 caption</span>
<span>Photo 10 caption</span>
<span>Photo 11 caption</span>
<span>Photo 12 caption</span>
<span>Photo 13 caption</span>
<span>Photo 14 caption</span>
<span>Photo 15 caption</span>
<span>Photo 16 caption</span><!--Add or delete spans for more or less photos -->
</div>
<!--The following block of code gets appended with javascript -->
<div class="slice nospans" id="slice2"></div>
<div class="slice nospans" id="slice3"></div>
<div class="slice nospans" id="slice4"></div>
<div class="slice nospans" id="slice5"></div>
</div>
<div id="caption"></div><!--Captions get displayed through javascript -->
<div id="photoBtns"></div><!--Buttons get created dynamically with javascript below -->
<script>//This block of code happens immediately BEFORE the document is completely ready
var direction="right" //Change to either "right" or "left"
var btnFadeTime = 600;//time in milliseconds to fade in buttons, you can CHANGE this if you want
var i, n, b, p=1, newDiv;//utility variables - DON'T CHANGE THESE
var spanWidth = $("#slice1 span:nth-child(1)").width();//stores the width of one image slice
var totalPics = $("#slice1 span").length;//stores how many total photos by counting the spans in #slice1
for(i=0;i<totalPics;i++){
$(".nospans").append("<span></span>");//this creates spans for the css slices to populate images
newDiv = "<div class=\"photoBtn\" id=\"photoBtn"+(i+1)+"\"></div>";
$("#photoBtns").append(newDiv);//this creates divs for small thumbnail buttons to be populated with images
}
$(".photoBtn, #caption").css({//initially makes btns and caption transparent
opacity:0
});
function showBtns() { //create a loop function
setTimeout(function () { //call a short setTimeout when the loop is called
b = "#photoBtn" + p; //create selector
$(b).transition({ //fadeIn currentBtn
opacity:1
},btnFadeTime,"linear");
p++; // increment the counter
if (p <= totalPics) { //check to see if another button is available
showBtns(); //trigger another button to fade in
}
},btnFadeTime/2)
}
showBtns();
</script>
</div>
