Title: Homepage thumbnail border sizes
Post by: saintmic on May 20, 2007, 10:15:07 PM
Hi there.

On my site - www.321flash.es - i have several albums linked from the home page. Trouble is, every time the site loads, the space in which the thumbnails appear seems to be estimated and is always way to big, meaning during the loading time the page changes shape and size.

Is this due to something I can change somewhere - if so where - or is it a fault in the HTML? If my description is a bit vague, please have a look at www.321flash.es/english/index.php

Thanks!

Coppermine doesn't "know" the dimension of Flash files - you have to tell them using the "edit files" dialog (see http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg14x/docs/index.htm#edit_vids). Subsequently, if you haven't specified the dimensions in Coppermine, cpmFetch doesn't "know" them neither. Bottom line: not sure if this will definitely fix things in cpmFetch, but it will definitele cure cpg issues with flash dimensions and the space reserved for the object while it is loading.

You can specify some widths in cpmfetch, not sure how it fits in with flash...
