Topic: iPad Full Screen Failing

I am having somewhat the same issue as posted here:
http://www.simpleviewer.net/forum/viewt … p?id=14837

However, the solution for that post did is not working for my issue?

I am running the gallery from the root of the website and  my images and XML in their own directory (/ranchPhotos/) and set the paths as such...

<image imageURL="/ranchPhotos/images/FH Ranch twitter copy.jpg" thumbURL="/ranchPhotos/thumbs/FH Ranch twitter 
copy.jpg" linkURL="" linkTarget="" >

or

<image imageURL="ranchPhotos/images/FH Ranch twitter copy.jpg" thumbURL="ranchPhotos/thumbs/FH Ranch twitter 
copy.jpg" linkURL="" linkTarget="" >

...it works across the board EXCEPT on full screen for mobile devices (like the iPad).

but if I change it to:

<image imageURL="images/FH Ranch twitter copy.jpg" thumbURL="thumbs/FH Ranch twitter copy.jpg" 
linkURL="" linkTarget="" >

... it works NOWHERE except the iPad?

Warm regards,
Chris Sgaraglino

The solution in the other thread was to use absolute URLs for the imageURLs and thumbURLs in the gallery's XML file such as:

<image imageURL="http://www.example.com/ranchPhotos/images/FH Ranch twitter copy.jpg" thumbURL="http://wwww.example.com/ranchPhotos/thumbs/FH Ranch twitter 
copy.jpg" linkURL="" linkTarget="" >

If you have already tried this, it may have been necessary for you to clear your browser's cache before reloading the gallery in order to see the changes made.
If you continue to experience difficulties, please post the URL to your gallery so that we can take a look.

Yeah - that seemed to work this time - I must have had a caching issue?

Re: iPad Full Screen Failing

Yes. Your browser was probably hanging onto (and using) an older version of your gallery's XML file which did not take into account the changes you had made to it.
