Hi guys,

I am surfing around the net and saw a lot of people make their photo galleries or portfolio using the overlay image techniques (when you click the pic, its going to loading and give you the bigger size of the image)

like this site http://overdue.carbonmade.com/

I am just wondering how you make it? and since, I am kind of new with JS.
what is the best daily practice to became more and more expert with javascript?

thanks guys

Hello Arch_Angel_X!
You can find detailed code how to make a photo gallery using the overlay image techniques at
http://www.featurepics.com/Editorial/ImageGallery.aspx

This is a javascript based image gallery that displays larger versions of thumbnail images dynamically when the mouse hovers over them.
The code and examples provided.

Very interesting! I have seen Lightbox (uses scriptaculous) and Thickbox (uses JQuery) but this implementation is a new style. Looks like they made their own Slideshow class using prototype/scriptaculous (Scriptaculous incorporates the Prototype library). These two implementations rely on a rel="lightbox" attribute on a linke (or something similar) and uses the link href to show the larger image. The link usually contains the thumbnail image.

This is different though. There aren't any rel attributes on the images or links for the images. Looks like they are registering listeners for the link ids (e.g. prevlink, nextlink). Take a look at http://overdue.carbonmade.com/js/application.js. This is a great implementation. How much JavaScript have you written?

Looks like they are using code from here: http://encytemedia.com/event-selectors. I think between the Prototype docs and trying an implementation of this you (and I) could learn a lot.

Thanks for sharing.
