Hello,

I am about to write a web control to go in mojo that displays all the photos in a user defined folder (eg /data/myImages). I was planning to use JQuery to get around the limitations of the Silverlight control namely that users have to download silverlight to get it to work. 

Has anybody already done this or got any extra features they would like to suggest?

Thanks

Matt

Looks perfect, thanks Jamie, I will have a play with that.

Rick,

That was the very JQuery slide show I was planning to incorporate. Thank you so much!

Strange looking at your website, I felt like I had met my alter-ego. I play guitar, do software development professionally and do a bit of wood working and hedgelaying in my spare time. My family also run a timberframe building company over here in the UK. 

Anyway, back to the control, have you thought about getting Joe to add it to the Mojo project, it would be a great addition.

Thanks again

Matt

Hey cousin Rick!

I have been playing with your Nivo slider implementation and can't work something out. I wonder whether you are familiar with the problem?

The control works fine on my live site, but not on my local lIS one. The source is identical as far as I can tell. In fact I copied the local site to live so it must be the same.

On the local site, the cursor / buttons at the bottom of the slider, which show your current picture, don't display, and instead I get a strange pixilated set of mini-images on the left hand side of the main image. Also the main image seems to spend a lot of time in a state where it is only about 20% as big as it should be! 

I guess its not the end of the world, since the live one works, just a bit annoying..

Thanks

Matt

PS I went to university with someone called Ian Partington, he came from up north somewhere. 

Hi Rick,

Hope you are well. Just to let you know I have converted your Nivo slideshow stuff to a fully configurable control now. It lets you point the slide show at a folder so it displays all the images in that folder, it also lets you specify the image dimensions and margin size in the settings. I had to do this for a project I am working on. 

I am happy to let you have the source if its of use to you.

Cheers

Matt
