<txp:images> usage
Quick question:
Is there a better/more streamlined way to write this code below? The wiki page on the <txp:images /> tag seems to be missing some examples of usage as a container tag at the moment so can you confirm this is OK…
<ul id="gallery">
<txp:images sort="id asc" category="gallery">
<li><img src="<txp:image_url />" alt="<txp:image_info type='alt' />"></li>
</txp:images>
</ul>Cheers, Phil

Did you try
<txp:images sort="id asc" category="gallery" html_id="gallery" wraptag="ul" break="li">
<img src="<txp:image_url />" alt="<txp:image_info type='alt' />" />

Re: <txp:images> usage
Thanks, but I need an id on the <ul> tag so don’t want to use wraptag, I was just unsure of whether I could use the following…
<ul id="gallery">
<txp:images sort="id asc" category="gallery" break="li">
<txp:image />
</txp:images>
</ul>…and it seems you can. Just tested and it’s fine.

Re: <txp:images> usage
txp:images: “The HTML id attribute applied to the wraptag, if set, otherwise to the img tag.”

Re: <txp:images> usage
Hi Phil, this might be even more streamlined
<txp:images sort="id asc" category="gallery" html_id="gallery" wraptag="ul" break="li">
<txp:image />
</txp:images>and it’ll do the same as your code above

Oh, never noticed the html_id attribute before, thanks for the heads-up.

Re: <txp:images> usage
I am posting here my question about using this tag.
<txp:images category=“portfolio” thumbnail=“0” />
I have a gallery that doesn’t have thumbnails.
I want to display large images.
Can it be done with this tag?
If I use thumbnail=“0” then nothing shows up.

@ricoschette
How about…
<txp:images sort="id asc" category="portfolio" break="p" thumbnail="0"><txp:image /></txp:images>Offline

Re: <txp:images> usage
Thanks, philwareham.
But for some reason no images show up. Source code shows nothing.
EDIT:
I removed “thumbnail=“0”“ and it works!
YES!

Re: <txp:images> usage
Well, actually I do have thumbs.
But for displaying thumbs I have another tag :)
Thumbs are generated into another div.
My code:
<div id=“slidePrev” class=“prev”></div>
<div class=“large-image”>
<div id=“slider”>
<div id=“slidesContainer”>
<txp:images sort=“id asc” category=“portfolio”><txp:image /></txp:images>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div id=“slideNext” class=“next”></div>
<div class=“sliderGallery”>
<div class=“thumbs-wrap”>
<txp:images sort=“id asc” category=“portfolio” thumbnail=“1” break=“li” wraptag=“ul” class=“no-class”>
<a href=”#”><txp:image_url link=“0”><txp:thumbnail /></txp:image_url></a>
</txp:images>
</div>
<div class=“slider”>
<div class=“handle”></div>
</div>
</div>

Re: <txp:images> usage
Ah, the textbook entry for <txp:images /> states that:
thumbnail=“boolean”
Filter the image list to only include images that have a thumbnail (1) or not (0).
That means you original code was only going to include images that do not have a thumbnail associated with them and ignore all others.

Re: <txp:images> usage
Right.
See my previous post for code.
Not sure if it can be done any shorter.
