Installation instructions
Grab the following from the Dojo SVN Repository:
http://svn.dojotoolkit.org/dojo/dojox/trunk/image/*
Install into the following directory structure:
/dojox/image/
...which should be at the same level as your Dojo checkout.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional Notes
LightBox: currently works as individual items, and grouped items,
but usage of dojo.data is broken (atm). the API is subject to
change, and is marked accordingly.
Hoping to implement: Carossel, and Reflect using
a common API provided by dojox.image.Pane (?)
SlideShow: Shows an image, one by one, from a datastore. Acts
as standing ImagePane implementation,
Gallery: A combination Thumbnail view and SlideShow, using
a datastore, and providing navigation, and common API.
Magnifier: Unobtrusive way to attach a hovering window window
when moving the mouse over an image. The window shows a a zoomed
version of the original source. (prototype)
Badge: (prototype) A Javascript version of a FlickrBadge thingr,
which loops through and sizes children in a loop.
