Integrating with HTML

Integrating imageVue with a HTML site

There is nothing preventing you from integrating imageVue into a pre-buildt HTML site. Here are a few guidelines for successfull implementation:

Main imageVue folder
Since the root folder of imageVue consistes of many files and folders, you might want to keep these contained and separate from your main website root. To do this, you can simply create a folder relative to your root site with any name, f.ex imagevue/, where you contain the imageVue files. Then, locate the file
source/standalone/standalone.ini in the imageVue.zip. Change it to:

globalpath = imagevue/

The set value is the relative path from your root site, towards the main imageVue folder. Save the file and upload it to the root of your website(or the same location as the html file where your imageVue.swf is embeded).


The imageVue Stage size
By default, imageVue dimensions are set to 700x500 pixels, and these are the minimal requirements when implementing imageVue.swf into a html page. Having said that, the default index.php runs imageVue.swf in fullscreen mode which allows certain features you will loose when running at the minimal 700x500:

1. Image Navigation Scroller will appear on top of current image. Unless you change the feature imagenavidefpos.

2. Subbuttons feature displaying thumbnails below mousepointer will be disabled, showing thumbnails OVER the image area instead.

If your HTML layout enables a wider area and/or height than 700x500, you should try and utilize it, but it is no requirement.


ImageVue URLvars
The default indexpage, index.php, can accept multiple variables in the URL. If you want these implemented with your HTML page, you will need to use the index.php as a reference for implementing the code. This is only needed if you intend to actually use URLvars.
