javascript gallery
i just added new javascript/ajax interface to my photo gallery, which you can see here. it’s written by Lokesh Dhakar at huddletogether.com, i just downloaded the scripts and installed them. you can get them right here. the reason i give them the forsaken buzz-word term “ajax”, is that the gallery only loads each image as it’s needed, instead of loading them all at once. it’s not really ajax because there’s no xml, no innerHTML, and no XMLHttpRequest/ActiveXObject classes, but it’s a step in the right direction.
while i have no ajax experience myself, i hope to learn a little before my first day at my new job, as a PHP/JavaScript/XML Developer. hopefully i can catalog my findings closely enough in this blog to teach anybody reading this what i learn.
