I’m trying to build an image gallery (or, ideally, find a jquery plugin) that meets the following specifications:

  1. Full-size images in #left div, thumbnails wrapped in links in #right div.
  2. Clicking a #right div thumb causes the corresponding full-size image to slide out from the right side of the #left frame to the center
  3. After full-size image loads, the thumbnails in #right fade out to reveal the description of each image– possibly stored in the alt tag, more likely stored in a span within the link
  4. When #right thumbs fade, a button appears that allows the user to click and fade the thumbnails back in.

I don’t know any javascript, so I’m at a loss as to where to begin with something like this. My expertise is front-end, but unfortunately I find myself a de facto developer these days. Such is life.

    Your best bet is to use this:

    But without any javascript knowledge, you will struggle to get any plugin to exactly what you want…

    But!

    I have just given a couple of lectures on an introduction to javascript, so you might find the slides useful

    Introduction to JavaScript

    JavaScript Development

    In fact I have literally just started the second years on a javascript module, and my slides will be going online as when I do them, so keep an eye on my slideshare

    I hope this helps:)
