Topic: Image link to website

Hi,

Is it possible to have an image in the gallery open to a page on my website when clicked, and if so how?

Thanks,

John

Re: Image link to website

This is not possible with the preconfigured options available in SimpleViewer-Pro v1. However, SimpleViewer-Pro v1.9 does come with source code so with Adobe Flash and a knowledge of ActionScript, you may be able to publish a new SWF file with the functionality you require. Please see the section entitled 'Customizing Source Code' on the 'SimpleViewer-Pro v1.9 User Manual' page for details:http://www.simpleviewer.net/simpleviewer/pro/support/v1_9/#source

This is possible with SimpleViewer v2.3.0.
You would set the Pro Option imageClickMode="OPEN_URL" in your gallery's XML file and then when the user clicks on an image, the URL specified by the corresponding linkURL will be opened in the target specified by the linkTarget, eg.

<image imageURL="images/image.jpg" thumbURL="thumbs/thumb.jpg" linkURL="http://www.example.com" linkTarget="_blank">
    <caption></caption>
</image>

A description of the imageClickMode Pro Option can be found in the 'Main Image' section of the 'SimpleViewer-Pro Config Options' page: http://simpleviewer.net/simpleviewer/pr … #mainimage

If I leave it as open_url, is there anyway I can get the gallery to stop at that image until viewed - without slideshow carrying on?

No, it is not possible to automatically stop a slide-show on a certain image.
