06.05.2004
----------

Released 1.3a. Some minor changes:
Altered pre-load code to use imagePath instead of fileName, only important when original images are included without linking (rare)
Altered keyboard shortcuts slightly so that "#" is put into the URL instead of "" when at first or large page. IE was displaying the contents of the directory in this case.
Changed date on the display of onload.bsh
Added routine to clear out the res directory if an older version of ExhibitPlus is detected.

01.05.2004
----------

Released 1.3 

30.04.2004
----------

Updated metodi-black.css to correct small issue

29.04.2004
----------

Wrote a formal test procedure into the documentation
All language updates received - thank you translators
Added some additional code for an alternate res directory via undocumented variable resSubDir. This was purely for my own use, and has no practical user application (unless the user wants to run multiple styles like I do in my sample gallery)
Added some vertical-align properties to elements in the page selection code. Now lines up the same way in both IE and Gecko

27.04.2004
----------

Fixed an obscure bug: When fullscreen buttons were not used in fullscreen buttons and the user activated the slide show, the slideshow would break and keyboard shortcuts would also break.
Cleaned up a lot of CSS. Ordered CSS elements logically, and transfered all CSS elements to the colour style sheet. Should be a bit easier and pleasant for people wanting to make changes
Removed IE glow effect, removed IE opacity effect. 
Retired "full CSS conform" switch, now everything is full CSS conform all the time.
Brought back the image map over slide image from a pre XHTML1.1 version of the skin. Saving images now possible, validates under XHTML1.0 (but not 1.1)
"Panaoramic" shots used as folder thumbnails are now clipped so that they don't overflow onto the text (rare condition)
Added additional CSS classes for some div elements

25.04.2004
----------

Added CSS elements for all styles for date, name and comments under thumbnails. Changed structure of hyperlink for name under thumbnail. No underline now, looks better

24.04.2004
----------

Added ui.displayFolderDateAdded.setToolTipText, ui.imageDateUnderThumbnail.setToolTipText, ui.displayFolderDateAdded, ui.imageDateUnderThumbnail to language
Added controls to put date under thumbnails, and to supress folder added date on index.
Added folderIconDirectory= variable to meta.properties, it is now possible to specify a different sub folder to look for a thumbnail to use as a folder icon.
Fixed minor bug which prevented the copying of button sets. 
Added routine to index.htt which copies over the additional help.gif, info.gif, download.gif, orderprints.gif files if they are present in the button set
Added some more language strings
Updated all documentation ready for the release of 1.3

22.04.2004
----------

Changed style elements slightly around the EXIF data. Now easier for people to control this section with CSS a little better.

21.04.2004
----------

Added 3 new button sets from metodi
Updated various language files

19.04.2004
----------

Borrowed and modified routine from BluPlusPlus to automatically read directory and present languages in the UI's drop down box
Also a routine to give the ability to override the default icon set for a given style via the UI.

18.04.2004
----------

Added new variable numberIndexColumns, and a corresponding change in the UI. User can now set number of columns to display the sub-folders on an index page. Previously this was 1. Depending on the description, anything above 3 will not look good, especially on a screen with low resolution!
Added an overflow-y: auto to the html section of the basestyle.css. This seems to fix a greyed-out vertical scrollbar that IE seemed to display on index pages. Mozilla had no issues with this before or after the change.
Took out the overflow-y: property shortly afterwards. Had an unfortunate side-effect of a horizontal scrollbar in IE

17.04.2004
----------

When using "force" option for up button at index page, previously it referenced a parent index page which didn't exist. Now a test is done to see if the page exists, and if not, it references ../ instead.


16.04.2004
----------

Added Serbian language file
Added Icelandic language file
Changes some single quotes to double quotes for the moveOn() routine in slide.htt and originalslide.htt


15.04.2004
----------

Converted all filenames to lowercase to avoid possible problems with unix systems
Added preview images for all styles (made possible in JAlbum 4.3)
Added event handling to onload.bsh. Can be used for future features
Changed from XHTML 1.1 to XHTML1.0 Strict DOCTYPE and adjusted all logos accordingly
Specified both title and alt for all image file references

13.04.2004
----------

Added dutch language file
Corrected small bug with language files not being read for noDescript and folderJump
Made adjustments so that characters possible with UTF-8 encoding (e.g. Cyrillic) can now be used in meta.properties, and comments.properties etc. Resaved all sample file packaged with ExhibitPlus into UTF-8 encoding.
Rewrote code concerning display of EXIF data. Now generated from an array, reducing size of slide.htt and making the adding of additional fields very simple. Added a few new fields, including complete IPTC data (if available)

24.02.2004
----------

Added German language file. Not much progress since the beginning of Feb due to travel commitments. Decided to publically release test version. Will return home on March 19 and can add finishing touches at that point. Development work 99% complete. This version should have very few issues.

21.01.2004
----------

Mini thumbnails now appear with the image label when the mouse hovers over them

There is a new variable which allows the user to change the scaling factor for mini thumbs

Changes to the UI with some small layout issues

Conversion of both the UI and all relevant .htt files to a multilingual interface. Now additional language files can be plugged in easily.


20.01.2004
----------

Rewrote sections of Keyboard help pop-up, now does not use the bottom property (incompatible with IE5/Mac)

Rewrote sections of the EXIF pop-up, now uses 2 absolutely positioned divs, no longer blocking navigation items in Mozilla and Opera

Bumped up z-index on mini-thumbs and nav element in portrait mode - was previously disappearing behind image on Mozilla and other browsers

Corrected small issue where imagePaddingBottom contained a decimal point, now is integer


16.01.2004
----------

Fixed small bug: Image name under thumbnail in free-flowing mode caused all images to stack vertically

Re-wrote absolute positioning for the 4 small icons in the picture frame. Now they position from the top rather than the bottom, due to work around for IE5/MAC

Adjusted XHTML slightly for keyboard help and EXIF info to function correctly under Safari and IE5/MAC. Now seems to work on all browsers and platforms (so far!)

Corrected small bug - missing ID on the shutterfly form - now functions correctly for XHTML


15.01.2004
----------

Added fixed width to containing DIV of buttons within image frame (e.g. help, EXIF, shutterfly, download original) - this was the fix issue in Opera 7

Removed containing DIVs from around mini-thumbs, now behaves correctly in Opera 7

Fixed a small issue with the formatting of the image name and bottom navigation buttons not looking so nice with the top navigation buttons were disabled on the the slide page.

Corrected shuttefly routine. It disappeared a few days ago by mistake - added back in.


13.01.2004
----------

Corrected small bug preventing the display of w3C CSS logo on slide.htt when fullCSSConform was set to true.

Removed table-within-table in the fixed format layout. 

Added additional logic to correctly add </tr> in the correct place so as to pass XHTML 1.1 validation and preserve identical layout between IE and Mozilla (also tested and validated for both sub folders present and not present in a given directory)

Added comments to all example include files and .htt files warning users not to use depreciated tags and to ensure that all modifications are XHTML 1.1 compliant


12.01.2004
----------

Converted index.htt to XHTML 1.1

Converted slide.htt to XHTML 1.1

Converted originalslide.htt to XHTML 1.1

Converted originalslide2.htt to XHTML 1.1

Replaced old client side image map in slide.htt with full CSS solution - the client map started to fail under XHTML 1.1 and needed to be replaced by something more modern.

It is now possible to set a variable delay value for slideshow via the UI

It is also now possible to set "continuous mode" for the slideshow via the UI - slideshow will not stop when it gets to the end, but will loop back again to the beginning

Fixed problem when using fixed table mode in mozilla. Everything now correctly centered on index page when using fixed format mode


11.01.2004
----------

Finally made the folder icons / thumbnails and the "new" graphic as hyperlinks on the index page.

Added new variable commentAboveSlide - credit to Markus Rietzler for the idea

Fixed a small bug introduced on the 06.01.04 - Image name was in the wrong position for portrait images.


07.01.2004
----------

Index.htt was the only file which took the character encoding setting from JAlbum. Other files were hardcoded. Corrected

Corrected problem with portrait images in 35mm focal length function - thanks to Markus von Arx

Reformatted the underlying images which form the base for the glow effect in IE. They are now completely hidden, were previously slightly visible in Mozilla when using the lighter styles (black horizontal line visible under frame)

Rewrote sections of index.htt - display is now consistent between IE and Mozilla. Exception is that the "new" icon appears to the left of the thumbnail on Mozilla and to the right on Explorer. Seemingly unavoidable, but not the end of the world.

Thumbnails as folder icons on the index page now display in their correct aspect ratio, and will automatically center (for example if some part portrait and some are landscape)


06.01.2004
----------

David updated onload.bsh to take advantage of new features in JAlbum, synced the 4.1.4 release onload.bsh with development version

Added singleFolderMode - designed for people who don't have a hierarchy in their album structure - disables navigation and folder description elements for the current folder on the index page

Title in browser window now reflects alternative title if title= is used in a meta.properties file

Fixed tiny bug causing the purple background to bleed to the left in dark.css when using a footer.inc file

Rewrote substancial sections of slide.htt, specifically to do with the framing around images, and the positioning of the  small icons. After this redesign functions now work properly in mozilla, and more importantly behaviour is 99% consistant between IE and Mozilla. All small icons now appear in Mozilla, and in the same order they do in IE.

Rewrote keyboard shortcut help - now works in both Mozilla and IE

Modified the display of EXIF data in userselect mode. Old bug in IE with horizontal scroll bar appearing until the mouse was moved is now eliminated


Can't remember which date
-------------------------

Fixed small bug causing horizontal scrollbar to appear on index page
