Multiple gallery boxs ??

Hey folks first post. :D

I am allowing a friend of mine to post some galleries on my site and was wondering if there was a script to create another box on the main page there. Also I was wondering what you thought of my site:

I'm not 100% sure. My initial thought is no since there isn't anything for the javascript / css to grab on to that can make this happen. But I don't know for sure.

javascripters?

I fear i have to agree with Mike. Of course, almost anything is possible if one throws enough javascript at it... but it'll make the page overly complex and difficult to maintain.

I suggest this:
Show the 'categoriesBox' on your homepage, not the 'galleriesBox'.
Choose/Create a particular Category for your friend. Alas, there are no 'id's set for any Category shown inside the galleriesBox. If you created a new Category, give it a meaningfull name that stands out. E.g. say the new Category's name is 'MyFriendsPics'

When clicking on the Category, you'll be brought to a new page. This page will contain an area that has the class "category_MyFriendsPics". Using this you can style your friend's galleries (that are under this category) anyway you like.

Sometimes we let the easy solutions escape us.
