Which program, software or script are you using for your website ?
My website is a ” photoblog “,
it is based on a couple of scripts which are :
1. Pixelpost :
My Photoblog was born due to Pixelpost, and I still use it today. That’s a simple and efficient tool which allow you to create your own look thru a “Template” system, so I built my own template (I’m a web designer, so that helps…).
To setup pixelpost you need to have a common “PHP + MySQL” website host (for my part, I’m using 1and1 services).
Is my Pixelpost template available anywhere?
2. Mootools :
The Mootools javascript library is an amazing framework that allowed me to create effects and animations in my photoblog without using Adobe Flash. The sliding comments panel, fading background colors, and others was done with it.
You will find here a bit more technical details about the matter…
3. Flexcroll :
I used the fleXcroll javascript library to give a custom aspect to the sliding panel scrollbar. fleXcroll is very well done and very simple to use, but there are issues with some browsers especially Safari for which I had to disable it.
4. Wordpress :
This article is displayed by Wordpress, I don’t find it very convenient for my photoblog, but, for a rich content like this section of my website, this is a dream tool! Easy to use, intuitive and powerful, this is a very high quality free product. I’m definitely addict :).
How is the mouseover popup of EXIF data done?
Julien :
Mootools, something like :
exif_data_showhide = new Fx.Style('exif_data_div_id','opacity',{duration: 500, transition: Fx.Transitions.linear, wait: false});To show (bind this to a onmouseover event):
exif_data_showhide.start(0,1);To hide (bind this to a onmouseout event):
exif_data_showhide.start(1,0);Note that with the current version of Mootools, it would be done differently:
