Galleria 1.0b
10 comments so far | Add yours
Not even a week after I posted about the initial beta of Galleria the project has already grown into 1.0b and I can see true potential in scalability and usage for this javascript gallery.
The project now has a home page, a code repository, documentation, wiki and developers info at google code, a couple of new demos and soon-to-come real-world examples.
Major changes from 0.9 to 1.0
- A new history extension will take control of the back button and present the previously viewed image without re-loading the page, if you prefer to do so.
- Event methods for the image and thumbnails that fires when displayed, so you can customize their behaviors when they appear in your markup
- The image is no longer placed inside each list item and positioned absolute, instead it’s injected into a custom selector of your choice or in a default division, created for you
- Public previous/next methods to simplify the creation of navigational elements
File bug reports at the google code page. Other comments/suggestions/questions etc. can be commented here in the kitchen. Enjoy!

The demos looks awesome. Really.
But isn’t is kinda booring that you don’t have a download-link at the Galleria-mainpage?
All though the gallery is very cool.
By the way, should you pronounce it like the swedish “galleria” of like a mix between swedish and english? (:Kind greetings,

I’m busy evaluating Galleria at the moment (I haven’t actually even downloaded it yet) and it’s goals sound the most sensible of any gallery project I have come across. Every other gallery library seems to feel it should be everything under the sun, including the kitchen sink which is a pest. But then your’s came from the kitchen, so I guess it doesn’t need a sink?
Thanks for sharing this.

Thanks for such a lovely system. Such an improvement others I’ve seen/used in the past.
I’m having an issue with the thumbnails generated from landscape pictures. I’d like all the thumbs to have the same proportions, regardless of crop.
An example is here:

Thanks again for sharing. I am using 1.0b here: http://www.fouroaksonline.co.za/portfolio.php
I had to comment out the centering of the thumbnails with the no scale class. (My thumbnails are correctly sized already anyway so centering was not necessary.) I am using the option of have links in the thumbnail list, and found that if I entered the gallery with a full size image in the cache, but not the thumbnail, occasionally it would read the the thumbnail size as zero and end up incorrectly setting the margin so that the top left corner of the image was positioned in the center of the list item.

You mentioned using a ‘lightbox’ component to display the full-sized images. How would would I achieve this effect using the latest lightbox2.0 or lightwindow scripts? Suggestions? Thanks.

Great work David,
Galleria is super easy to use and modify - I’m currently trying to make it work with an xml/xsl fragment (I want to use the same xml schema for a flash gallery). Here’s the sandbox.http://www.7and8design.com/clients/sunnie/
Everything loads fine and all the functionality is there, except previous button for the first image and next button for the last don’t work - the link comes up “undefined”. I guess it’s not tracking firstchild and lastchild…
Any idea how I can fix it?
