Only show image table if the image exists?

Trond Åge Kvalø	Monday 15 March 2004 12:43:44 am I have altered the Folder class a bit to include an image. Then I've made a template that shows the image in a right justified table. Problem is that the image is not required, and now I want to check to see if there's an image before I show the table. At the moment I'm also assuming a fixed size on this image. But that is bit strict. Could someone help me with how to scale the image proportionally to a fixed with? here's the code for my image table: {section loop=$children} <TABLE border='0' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0' align='right' CLASS='image-right'> <tr><TD width='155'><img src='{$:item.object.data_map.bilde.content[reference].full_path}' width='155' height='88'></TD> </tr><tr><TD CLASS='space10px'> </TD></TR> </TABLE> best regards trondåge trondåge
Trond Åge Kvalø	Monday 15 March 2004 12:54:03 am Ehhrm.... it was actually in the docs..... How bizarre. That's the last place I'd look ;-o http://ez.no/ez_publish/download/changelogs/ez_publish_3_3/new_image_system well, well. Now I'll try to make it work.... trondåge trondåge
Trond Åge Kvalø	Monday 15 March 2004 1:21:40 am The docs says: "A filter entry in the image alias consist of the name of the filter and the filter parameters separated with a =, each parameter is separated with a semicolon (;)" But how about giving us an example? It's quite annoying when the documentation guides you <b>almost</b> to the solution. Compare it to reading a crime novel where the last chapters are missing.... From what I understand from the docs this is how I should do it: {$:item.object.data_map.bilde.content.url.geometry/scalewidth=155} But I have a feeling that this is not entirely correct... please show me how to do this best regards trondåge trondåge
Tore Skobba	Monday 15 March 2004 1:57:41 am Hi As I understand it you have two problems. Need to scale image and conditional template code for displaying folders with and without an image. Image scaling is set up in the settings/override/image.ini.append. There you will find lots of stuff. Basically you must make an filter for your image. For example: # Scale images to 230;110. NOT keeping aspect ratio [ingress] Reference=reference Filters[]=geometry/scaleexact=230;110 # Scale images larger than 460;460 down to keeping aspect ratio.. I.e the image is simply NEVER widther og heigher than 460 px. [xlarge] Reference=reference Filters[]=geometry/scaledownonly=460;460 Then in your template you must use code to view images: {section show=$item.data_map.bilde.content.is_valid} {* Image is available } <a href={$item.data_map.bilde.content.orginial.url\|ezroot}>{attribute_view_gui attribute=$item.data_map.bilde image_class="ingress"}</a> { Image size is controlled by using image class="filtername", where filter name is in image.ini.append. {section-else} {* There is no image *} {/section} PS: Replace $item with $node if not within an sectin loop.

Trond Åge Kvalø	Monday 15 March 2004 3:39:57 am Thank you, Tore! Much appreciated :-) As far as I've understood, I also have to specify an AliasList[]=my_new_filter_name in the [AliasSettings] section , right? And what does the Reference=reference line do? trondåge trondåge

If the default AliasList does not suit your needs then you define your own in the design/override/image.ini.append file. >And what does the Reference=reference line do? Beats me, probably somehting to do with some advanced functionality.. I just keep it there.. I.e when making an new filter I use copy&paste.
