Vanilla 2

Hi Stephane,
just tried pP 3 beta and I am having some problems with that new nice features:
first pP included mini gallery does not seem to like certain pictures does not seem to be connected to amount or order of them took some out changed order but always the same pics do not show up.
second slideshow stops after sliding once no matter where i start it, this happens btw with your first gallery example on your demopage too, tested with both FF 3.6 and IE8 on XP.
have a look regarding missing mini thumbs

and btw any reasons for not using jquery142?

best regards

Hi,
pP seems to like .jpg but won't find a .JPG
now thats a bug ;-)
Another no-bug question if you allow some tweety told there would be JW Player included in 30. Could you please think about supporting other Players that are fully GPL - like flowplayer or better because really free the maxi player from http://flv-player.net/players/maxi/ - too? I got both working with pP 2.56 in IE and FF for now 3.0 and maxi and IE wont work, flow does.

best regards

Hi Stephane,
sorry but i have to say not and this is tested again both with FF3.6 an IE8 on your demo page and retested at sing.dudelidu.de, the last image in your first picture gallery is the only .JPG there - i know that one i have seen it somewhere else ;-) - and it will have me pP saying: "Image can not be loaded..." but opens just fine in a new tab if i choose to with right click maybe this is browser trouble.
I think before your last changes it was the same for that mini thumbs not showing up but the pictures still showed up normally, then you seem to have introduced: pp_images[i] = pp_images[i].toLowerCase();

-*EDIT*- with FF and IE the one before the last one in your first gallery on your example page linking to DSC05016.jpg won't work also- so i guess its not only the capitalized extension but maybe capitalized letters in the filename!?

-*EDIT 2"*- you can look here what works an what not with FF and IE screenshots of errors at bottom of page. http://sing.dudelidu.de/pp-3-0-and-filenames/

Regarding the the player, i would not bet on pP being used only for private projects, personally i use it much for my friends sites which are on the border line to being commercial lets say a band or being independent movie makers and the like, i cant decide totally art or business (with total lack of money) so i will be reluctant to use JW player getting no one into trouble.

Have no twitter account by now, just saw this tweet by accident on your homepage.

(Sorry I posted this in the regular forum)

I tried this (which I was using with 2.56)

I call $().prettyPhoto({theme: 'dark_rounded', animationSpeed: 'normal', overlay_gallery: true, slideshow: true, autoplay: true});

Then click on this link


First photo appears and I click play. Then I get (in firebug):
itemSrc is undefined
Line 603
function _getFileType(itemSrc){
603 if (itemSrc.match(/youtube\.com\/watch/i)) {

itemSrc is undefined, setPosition seems to be 16 and I have 7 images.

Slide show adds the stop class only if if(typeof pp_slideshow == 'undefined').
But this means that if you stop and start the slideshow, it will never again be undefined and so it keeps running and goes into hyperdrive motion. The stop button never again appears.

Hi,
Great plugin - I think this is potentially my favourite... and I've tried many!
I'm having one problem though.

I'm using 3.0b with jcarousel 0.2.4. It loads a clicked thumbnail image fine and once in prettyphoto everything is good. However, if the carousel is set to circular (goes back to 1st thumbnail image after last image in the list) and move either with next or previous so that I've completed 1 cycle, I then get the following script error when clicking on a thumbnail:

'undefined is null or not an object'

I'm using IE 7 in the office. The problem does not happen in Firefox. I'll test on all other browsers tonight. The error occured on line 604, but looking at the source code, there are only 194 lines, so I cant really target the problem.

There are problems with upper case letters in href="...". PP 3.0b converts hrefs to lower case (checked with latest version) and then it is not able to fetch the images and raises alert. I don't understand why the conversion to lower case is done, is there any reason? The problem shows up with web servers which distinguish upper case and lower case letters in file names (mostly unix/linux) and are not able to find and serve requested lowercased file name of the image.The fix is easy, just remove the conversion.

line 132 should be: setItem = $(this).attr('href');
line 671 should be commented out or removed.

PP works fine with these changes. Thank you for your PP and other pretty* scripts. Great work :-)

@ edlman, scaron

I immediately ran into the same issue while I was testing prettyPhoto 3.0b. I think the best solution is to remove all .toLowerCase() instances from the script. (I don't see the point of doing any character case conversions in the first place as they are only likely to introduce bugs.)

For instance in my case the pp_images is set on line 656:
pp_images = (isSet) ? jQuery.map(matchedObjects, function(n, i){ if($(n).attr('rel').indexOf(theRel) != -1) return $(n).attr('href'); }) : $.makeArray($(caller).attr('href'));


So the pp_images contains an array with straight image href strings. But.. It is being compared to a lowercased strings on lines 132 -> 134:
setItem = (_getFileType($(this).attr('href')) != 'youtube') ? $(this).attr('href').toLowerCase() : $(this).attr('href');

setPosition = jQuery.inArray(setItem, pp_images); // Define where in the array the clicked item is positionned

----

I also would like the themes to have CSS styles defining the text color by default. At the moment if you have text color defined widely in your css for html or body it will also change the color on prettyPhoto.

So please add something like this for each theme:

.facebook { color: #000000; }

In my page I have a youtube object. The problem is that the pretty photo popup is displayed underneath the object instead of on top of it. Is this a html issue or could it have something to do with the pretty photo z-index?

Just a few things I would like to suggest/point out regarding the new prettyPhoto 3.0b…These findings were observed on Firefox version 3.6.4

1) After expanding an image and clicking either the previous/next image, the image goes back to “normal” (collapsed) view. Now, when you click the expand icon, it won’t expand the image. You actually have to click the expand icon twice for it to expand the image. I think expand/collapse toggle state is out of sync initially.

2) When you are browsing the inline gallery and clicking on thumbnails, I noticed that after you click on a thumbnail image, it resets the gallery to the first page. I would think that it would preserve your state and not reset back to the first page of the gallery. So therefore, I commented out the following bit of code in the JS file and also commented out the line where it says –> currentGalleryPage = 0; Not sure if this is the best solution.

$pp_pic_holder.find(‘.pp_gallery ul li’).each(function(i){
$(this).css({
‘position’:'absolute’,
‘left’: i * itemWidth
});
});

Thanks for writing a very creative tool. I’m using it currently to re-develop my website.

Hi,

Uncertain this qualifies as a bug, but since I'm using 3.0, figured why not ask.

Launch either "Reel" or "Voice Overs" at the below URL. The issue I'm facing is that once PrettyPhoto launches it seems to lock my opaque image overlay. You can test this by resizing your browser window, as you'll be exposing vertical strips of the background page.

Anyone have any ideas how to fix this, or is it a bug? I had it working where window resizes in PrettyPhoto 2.5.6 weren't causing this issue, but accidentally overwrote the original file so not sure what I did there.

Anyways, thank you for reading.

P.S. Anyone know how to create one of those fancy new 3.0 image galleries, but accessed via only one single image? I tried some code I'd found for 2.5.6, but this did not work in 3.0. My only guesses would be because of a change in how galleries are handled, the fact that I'm using the "mediaplayer" CSS skin, or more likely than not... I'm simply doing it wrong :)


Update: This appears to be a bug.

Hi,

Inline content text input fields do not work.

This is a fantastic project :)

I have an issue when using prettyPhoto3.0b and prettyLoader 1.0.1 together.
when prettyLoader is activated, prettyPhoto pp_pic_holder stops floating up and down when I scroll page (pp_pic_holder’s top css property does not change)
there are no javascript errors… prettyPhoto container just stays on one place.
here is a demo of this bug:
http://bit.ly/bn13zr
browsers(all):
Firefox 3.6.8
Opera 10.60
IE 6+
Safari, chrome..so the problem is in some js function...

not sure if i'm the only one having problems but it seems that there's a bug when overlay_gallery is set to false.

Oh, sorry, my local server is unstable...

I've uploaded demo site to a stable server, please, have a look:

To clarify, say a given group of photos contains both movies and picture files. The snapshot previews below the slide will only show the picture files and will be blank for movies. Once a movie file is selected the thumbnails disappear and do not return until the slideshow is re-opened (I have worked around this).

Is is possible for the thumbnails to remain visible during mov/avi/mp4 files?
It is possible to capture a frame from the movie as use it as the thumbnail image?
