filmstrip. I want to dictate how it moves.

[asamuel]

instead of trundling along when you hover over the arrow I would like it to move along in blocks.

so if 6 pictures are visible in the filmstrip when it is static, I want to then press the arrow and the next (or previous) 6 pictures are visible.

anybody want to show me how its done? xxx

I developed a hybrid gallery design I call the 'showcase' - it combines the allthumbs gallery style with the slideshow. It does just about exactly what you're looking for.
You can see it in action, here (http://truemomentsphotography.smugmug.com/gallery/3002368).
Javascript (modified slideshow) code, here (http://www.mywanderingeye.com/public/smugmug/slideshow58wcr.js). (Right-click link and 'Save as...')
Javascript showcase code, here (http://www.mywanderingeye.com/public/smugmug/showcase.js). (Right-click link and 'Save as...')
CSS code, here (http://www.mywanderingeye.com/public/smugmug/smShowcase.css). (Right-click link and 'Save as...')
Instructions, here (http://www.mywanderingeye.com/public/smugmug/Showcase%20Instructions%20v0.pdf). (Right-click link and 'Save as...')
Javascript footer code, here:
if (YD.hasClass(document.body,'allthumbs') && !YD.hasClass(document.body,'singleImage')) {
scPrepShowcase ();
loadSlideshow ();
document.getElementById('gallerySSBox').style.disp lay ='block';
} Then, just set the gallery style to 'allthumbs', and you're set!

If you have any problems or questions, just ask.

that looks great. I'll see what I can do with it when the internet techies have fixed my upstream.

Now this is your baby. and I love it. but have you thought how nice it would be to see the five you click away from glide fluidly past as you click that arrow arriving at the next 5, like a train arriving in a platform. Can you see that?

I'm teasing a bit. but if you hear it, like it, its yours to do with it what you want.

thanks again the code is a diamond.:bow

...and any number of other enhancements, but I was doing this for a client and they were in a hurry. It would actually be pretty simple to do, but I had other priorities and not a lot of time. If that's what you'd prefer, I'd be happy to work through it with you, if you wouldn't mind serving as guinea pig...
