    SS Version 2.3.0
    Gallery Version 0.2.3
    Image_Gallery from page 8 of this thread

    Browsers:
    Firefox 3.0.6 (For Editing)
    IE 6.0 (as part of testing)

    Notice a style issue in IE6 when looking at an album with more than one page.
    The album page navigation comes in like a descending staircase. Just started
    to look over the css but figured it might be a good idea to bring it up so more
    brains can check it out.

    Also just noticed that since I added a second album to an image gallery page
    that the first album is no longer viewable but the second is. This is true from
    either browser. If I delete the newer of the two albums and republish and
    reload the site after clearing cache the original album works fine.

    Currently there is only one album in the gallery in question. Link here for
    those with IE6 that care to look.

    This is a test installation of SS in a subdirectory of my actual site. This is not considered
    Live.

    @George - Love it. I'll implement it soon.

    @BMS - Are all the errors you're talking about happening on the front end, not the CMS? I don't plan on supporting IE6 in the CMS unless I get an overwhelming number of requests for it. What do you mean when you say the second album isn't viewable? If you only have one album, the gallery page should go directly to the view of the first album, otherwise, if there is more than one album, it will give you the Albums overview where you can choose the album from a list.

    I'll look at the IE6 rendering issues, assuming they're on the front-end. By the time this module is in a stable state, maybe it will finally be a thing of the past.

    The errors are in fact on the front end.

    If I create an instance of an image_gallery page with a single album it works fine.
    If I the add a second album, when viewed on the site it does indeed correctly show
    the overview information for both albums, but when I click on the first one no
    images show up. If I click on the second one images show up fine. If I go into the
    cms and delete the second album the first album becomes viewable on the front
    end again.

    Sounds like something is configured wrong. The DataObjectManager demo site is always running the latest version on 2.3, and as you'll see, it's working properly with multiple albums. Use the admin section to compare your set up to the demo. The creds are admin/password.

    If you don't see anything different, make sure you've checked out the latest version from SVN for dataobject_manager and image_gallery. Delete the Gallery module all together.

    If possible, post a link to your admin with temporary creds so I can see what's going on.

    I will retry it again to rule out server issues, and I will try everything you have suggested.

    I figured out the style issue with IE6. It relates to its handling of the <ul> tag

    I did some web browsing using the search criteria "UL tag horizontal" and found an
    article that helped.

    http://www.webreference.com/programming/css_lists/2.html

    I modified ImageGallery.css as follows

    #pagination-imagegallery {border:0; margin:10px 0 0 0; padding:0;clear:both; display:inline;}

    #pagination-imagegallery li{
    border:0; margin:0; padding:0;
    font-size:11px;
    list-style:none;
    margin-right:2px;
    display:inline;
    }

    Having it in both places could be redundant. But it appears to work. It has not affected output in Firefox. :-D

    Thank you UncleCheese!
    Very nice module.

    Now, I don't want to be boring, but just to understand, why does image_gallery depends on swf_upload ?
    what does this swf_upload module has that you need/don't want to implement ? Besides upload of course

    I am very busy right now finishing some SilverStripe projects and as soon as I have time(I expect this weekend) I will read the code of the modules to try to understand.

    I am just asking this because I am a very hard core UNIX user, and not always I have flash available.
    When I click on upload button, and then a java-script pop-up with no caption appears, I click on and nothing happens.
    I will make a video with the error today night.
    I noticed this in:
    FreeBSD(i386) 7.1/Firefox3 or Firefox2/Flash 9
    Mac OSX 10.4.11/Firefox3 or Safari or Camino/Flash 10

    I just discovered that in Mac OS X 10.4.11 Tiger, downgrading to flash 9 work!!!
    But I don't know if this specific to flash 9, because in my FreeBSD desktop I use flash 9 and it doesn't work too.

    Did anyone else had this problem too ?
