i often create a journal gallery with some links in the captions. i would like to either turn off the link on the picture, or change it so it goes to my link when the picture is clicked on.

here's an example:

www.trishtunney.com/wedding (http://www.trishtunney.com/wedding)

if the user clicks on the picture of the shoes trying to get to see my prices, then they just get to see the shoes again.

any ideas?

thanks,
trish

On that page how many are you going to have? If only a few we can get
you set up with an html gallery and it'll look the same but the photos
could be clickable to anywhere you like. You could even have a new window
open and then they would still have the current page also. Beats having to
hit the back button to return.

Excellent! Thanks.

I'm just planning on the two images for that page. How do I get an HTML page to be a part of my smugmug pages? I do this journal page hacking stuff a lot, so if there is some generic way I can do it, that's ultimately what I'm hoping for.


Here is another example where I use the Journal gallery with some links: http://www.trishtunney.com/gallery/384050

Trish You just throw the html in the gallery description between html tags.
This page (http://allen-steve.smugmug.com/gallery/2320726) ought to give you an idea.

Trish,

I used the steps in #87 of the FAQ's (http://www.dgrin.com/showpost.php?p=209813&postcount=12), my goal is to not have the images in my Journal pages to not be clickable...I followed the code but that isn't working. Here's one of my Journal pages (http://propointmedia.smugmug.com/gallery/3193520)...Thanks.

Ok, so a year later I get around to trying this out. It's been a busy year.

This bit of HTML works in Firefox and Safari but doesn't work in Internet Explorer. I've tried it on Vista & XP. Same deal.

What seems to be happening is that when I click on my link in IE, 2 characthers get dropped from the URL, so it doesn't get to a valid page.

For example, I'm supposed to go to A, but when I click it tries to load B:

A: http://www.backprint.com/view_event_photos.asp?PID=bp%1EsA&EVENTID=39850&PWD= (http://www.backprint.com/view_event_photos.asp?PID=bp%1EsA&EVENTID=39850&PWD=)
B:
http://www.backprint.com/view_event_photos.asp?PID=bpsA&EVENTID=39850&PWD=

It looses that "%1E" part of the URL. :dunno

Forgive the competitor's link. I promise I love you guys most of all, use you more than anyone and refer all my people to you. They're a client of mine so I need to use them for some things.

Here's the page/gallery where I'm trying it out:
http://trishtunney.smugmug.com/gallery/5296550_MtvZm/1/323097528_BXdDE

Any clues?

Pasting in notepad, this is what I see. There's a  in B. Maybe an
illegal character?
A: http://www.backprint.com/view_event_photos.asp?PID=bp%1EsA&EVENTID=39850&PWD=
B: http://www.backprint.com/view_event_photos.asp?PID=bpsA&EVENTID=39850&PWD=

Sure, an illegal character is likely. So how do I work around it? It works for Firefox and Safari. It's just Internet Explorer where it pukes. Can I build the string some other way so it doesn't do it's little special interpretation?

thanks,
Trish

Try pasting it into a pure text editor like notepad, edit, then copy from there back into
your site. that'll clean out any illegal characters.

I'm creating the HTML in a text editor, so that shouldn't create any illegal characters. Just in case, I copied it to notepad to check, but no difference.

I don't think it's an illegal character. And it's not the URL directly, because that loads in Internet Explorer.

I'm totally at a loss. No other geeks out there with any ideas?

thanks!
Trish
