In this article I show you how the technology of Active Client Pages can be used to speed up the operation of a 3D HTML table image gallery. This technique is especially useful when visitors reach your site through a slow Internet connection. This is the first part of a two-part series.
Building an ACP 3D HTML Table Image Gallery - JavaScript Code for an Ordinary 3D Image Gallery (Page 4 of 4 )
This is the skeleton code for the JavaScript used to see the pictures of the different planes, and to maximize a picture:
var present = 0; //for changing vertical planes
function scrollInward()
{
//show the next plane of pictures – moving inward
}
var maximized = false; //true when an image is maximized
//function to maximize the image.
function maximizeFn(ID)
{
//function to maximize a particular image
}
//function to restore the image.
function restoreFn(ID)
{
//function to restore the maximized image
}
//function to call either the maximizeFn() or restoreFn()
function maxRest(ID)
{
//if the variable, maximized is true, call restoreFn(ID) else call maximizeFn()
}
Read the above skeleton code. I will not explain it any further in this two-part series. You will have the complete code at the end of this series.
Let us take a break here, and continue in the next part of the series.
