Would you like to display your favorites images inside an image gallery?

Select your images

Images should be JPGs and saved as non-progressive. It is preferably to put all images in the gallery folder.

Create thumbnails

Create thumbnails with an image editing program. Thumbnails should be at least 70×70 pixels (larger thumbnail images will be cropped).
Put all the thumbnails in the gallery folder. Thumbnails should be with different names from large images.

Edit images.xml

Open the file images.xml with a text editor (Notepad, TextPad or some other text editor…).
You will notice that the XML file has a special structure in order to describe the images in the gallery.
All images are described with the following XML tags located between the and tags.

    Location of the big image
    Location of the thumbnail
    Description, title or name of the image

Here is a example of an actual image.

    gallery/1.jpg
    gallery/s1.jpg
    Some lamp on the ground

You can place as many images as you want between the and tags describing each image in the way shown here.

Upload the Flash Gallery to your web server using FTP or other software. You can change the name of the demo.html file to whatever you want.

How can I change ftp timeout – yo5oee

In some cases when you upload a big file to a server, after the file upload had been finished the ftp program notify you that the connection timed out.
The timeout is controlled by the server. You can configure your ftp client to send noop command to the server in order to keep the connection open. Even this option is available, some servers ignores the noop command.
In this case contact your hosting company and ask to extend the ftp connection timeout.

I am using Krusader on Ubuntu but the timeout issue rarely appeared to me.

I was asked by yo5oee if are there any Firefox addon which allow multiple keywords search.
The main goal is to find and highlight keyword1, keyword2, keyword3, etc. and these combinattion:
keyword1
keyword2
keyword3
keyword1 keyword2
keyword2 keyword3
keyword1 keyword2 keyword3
I have never heard about such a multiple keyword search addon. I looked for it on Firefox addon page but found nothing.
