strange gallery layout behaviour #16

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
The gallery layout shows different amount of thumbnails. Check out this 
screenshot: http://i28.tinypic.com/2q8qa1v.png

The expected output is that each row has the same amount of thumbnails but 
instead some rows show only 1 thumbnail image.

Version: Nightly build for 2010-07-18 

Version: Wordpress 3.0

To resolve this problem, grab the right side of your browser window with your 
mouse and expand it to the right to make it wider ...lol

Still, I think this counts as a minor defect, so I'll change the CSS block from 
%width to fixed width to stop this from happening.

I'm for table-less galleries

Me too, but it *has* to use a table to prevent rows of images with different 
size dimensions "catching" on each other an breaking the layout. 

I tried 6 other implementations using only CSS, and none of them worked 
consistently in at least one of the major browsers. Flickr and Facebook are 
both using tables to display grids of images, and this is probably why they're 
doing it.

I suppose we could use Javascript or Flash to get the same effect, but isn't 
this what tables are *for*, displaying tables of things.. lol

this is the kind of problems that make me like working in the code more than in 
the template styling.
Given that we have higher prioritized tasks to focus on, we could ask on bp.org 
forum if there's some design wizard that knows dark css magic willing to help 
us on the layout.
