Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

[DivaVocals]

**he talked to ME!!!** **faints**

Seriously.. Awwwww... Back at you Tim.. Image Handler has made my client's lives SOOOOOOO much easier!!

But the REAL work on this mod has been done by much smarter folks than little ol' me.. Nigel, nagelkruid, ckosloff, and others have been the real hamsters behind the wheel for the last year or so..

I simply did a little writing, and testing 'tis all..

It's good to see you still alive and kickin' 'round these parts!

Hey folks



I just wanted to pop in and tell you all, especially Diva and her people that I'm very happy that image handler is continuously being improved by you. I'm away from zen-cart and php in general for several years now but it's really great to know that IH still gets so much use. Now that the next version is coming along, I'm kind
of proud that the initial (and very simple) idea of the "on the fly image resizing and caching" mod seems to have had enough potential, that people from all around the world are using it. Even when I kind of abandoned it, it was picked up by other people to provide support and fix and improve the code. So that is a huge thank you from me to the zen-cart community in general and Diva and her people especially.

Cheers
Tim

Hi Diva

Will IHv3 work with animated gifs.

If not, could you please post a note to this affect in the documentation.

I have one animated gif (50kb) on my site used as a category image for animated products, but which IH turns into a static image. Maybe its time I used another format (eg *.swf, except that many browsers are set to kill flash). Any recommendations.

Cheers

I think what he's asking is, will IH2v3.0 allow an animated gif to display as animated on hover, vs. capturing the animated gif and displaying it as a static image on hover.

This is what I expect would occur, and you have verified that this is what will occur..

Module has been submitted, and I'm afraid it's too late to update the documentation with any such notation.. (admins will also frown upon submitting an update for a minor modification after it's available to download)

Hi Just thought i would post this as I have spent for the (2nd time due to moving hosting) 2 days looking for the answer as how to get the addtional images to use lightbox instead of the borowser pop-up

As I had lightbox first when you install IH2 it overides the includes>modules>[Your_Template}>addtional_images.php

So all I final did was
upload the lightbox addtional_images.php again
and hey viola addtional images work in lightbox and the prev - next buttons re- appear.

Tip _ when you find a fix write it down so next time you wont have to search through all the forum again.. sound simple - I never was that bright

I hope this helps others and if the mods think this is not the correct fix then please am -end..

OH and this forum is great!!!! thanks guys

Or...how about this tip? Read the ReadMe that comes with the IH2 fileset ;)

From the ReadMe:

Zen Lightbox - Replace the additional_images.php from Image Handler2 with the one that comes with Zen Lightbox. (Zen Lightbox has included all the merged code required for Zen Lightbox and Image Handler2 to work well together)
