Hello,

Is it possible to set the caption text for each image to act as a link?

Thanks.

Re: Setting caption text as a URL link

How do I add HTML formatting to my captions?

Caption text can include a limited set of HTML formatting, including hyperlinks, line breaks, font tags, bold, underline and italics. Click here to view a list of HTML tags supported by Flash. You must wrap HTML formatted text inside a CDATA tag as below:

<caption><![CDATA[<font face="Times" size="20" color="#ffff00"> Big times text</font><b>bold text</b><u><a href="index.html">link text </a></u><br>New line of text]]></caption>

Re: Setting caption text as a URL link

hello

i'm new to simpleviewer (and french so please be indulgent with my english).

is there a way to put every caption text to bold without setting each of the items ? (i have 250 drawings... http://www.extrados.fr/galeries/crete for example)

i also would like to have an alternate text for the thumbs (to get immediately some info about the drawing), and, even, a little javascript ("onclick") on the images of the gallery, where a right click makes appear a dialog box, like in this page : http://www.extrados.fr/Fichiers_images/ … trella.htm.

Thanks for your help.

Elisabeth

Open up your gallery's XML file in a plain text editor and do a couple of globlal search and replaces:
Search for all instances of <caption><![CDATA[ and replace them with <caption><![CDATA[<b> and search for all instances of ]]></caption> and replace them with </b>]]></caption>

i also would like to have an alternate text for the thumbs

Only one caption can be associated with each image.

You cannot change the right-click action on a main image.
See imageClickMode in this section for available left-click options on the main images: http://simpleviewer.net/simpleviewer/pr … #mainimage

Re: Setting caption text as a URL link

OK, thanks
Of course I could have thought myself to replace <caption><![CDATA[  !!!

Too bad fo alternate text or right click.
Maybe with a further updating ?

Best regards
