FProd.net Blog, à suivre… création web, design, ajax, css, php et mysql, vidéos, MacOS et l’univers Apple, …

After quiet a long time of private work, EOGallery is released to public.

The official website is EOGallery.com

EOGallery is a web animated slideshow gallery maid with jQuery (1.1.1). It only uses basic jQuery functions and Cody Lindley’s Thickbox (2.1.1) to display larger pictures. The packed version has been maid with Dean Edwards packer. By the way, EOGallery is XHTML 1.0 strict valid and almost CSS valid, it has been tested on Firefox (1.5, 2.0), Safari (2.0.4), Internet Explorer 6 and works even with non-javascript and/or non-css browsers. EOGallery has been maid for testing purposes, there could be bugs and strange behaviors.

The source code is available, if you want to use it, just make a link to EOGallery’s website and leave a comment on this blog, thanks.
If you want to improve it, if you have found some bugs or added extra features, you can contact us or leave a comment on this blog.

Note that javascript source code is not really clean, it is given as it is, so some parts could look strange.

En envoyant un mail à l’équipe d’ajaxian pour annoncer l’ouverture du site et notamment l’utilisation de technologies dont ils parlent souvent sur leur blog, je ne m’attendais pas à retrouver un post consacré à F.Prod mais le mal est fait et des personnes se sont jetées dessus, voici le petit texte d’explication que j’ai posté sur ajaxian suite aux premières critiques :

Hi there,

Hooo, there has been some misunderstanding : I know what you think : why does he use such effects when a site without effects could have been much more efficient ? I Agree : I didn’t put those effects to make a flashy website, to impress some friends with some picture moving around or some automated scroll…

I maid this site much more like a proof of concept about animating, using some JS and being XHTML 1.0 Strict : look, it’s not a commercial site, there is no ads, no prices, i don’t even sell my own person …

I launched it only 24h ago, I didn’t had time yet to write on the blog to explain how things work and why they are there but my main idea about doing this was to show that
1/ it’s possible to replace flash for animations (index introduction animation)
2/ it’s possible to make some “cool” things like the slideshow on the index, like the dock on videos and web pages
3/ it’s possible to make a site using JS and being XHTML 1.0 Strict and being usable when JS is desactivated, even links which should open in a new window are “accessible”
… I’ll tell more things and show some code on the blog as soon as i can

However, i know i maid some mistakes and maybe you’ll help me to improve things
For ex, I would have never used so much effects on a “real” site, even if the effects are maybe nice, maybe cool

I hope after these explanations you will have another look at this site… and if you don’t, no way I like it
