I'm in the midst of setting up a photo gallery on my site, but Photoshop's web photo gallery doesn't let you customize the actual HTML used for it. If I use Photoshop...I'm going to have to edit every single page it generates...and I have over 60 HTML pages for my photo gallery. Can you guys recommend photo gallery software that will allow you to specify the exact HTML used for the gallery?

Oops, I forgot I was in the off topic forum:eek: This should be in the software forum, but I'll probably get more responses here anyway, lol.

I use the Photoshop generated galleries out of convenience. Why do you need to edit each page?

If you're doing the same thing to each page you should be able to use something like Homesite or another text editor to change the code for every page in the folder.

It really depends on what you're changing.

And I've been using photoshop since 5.5 LE! :Q

It's under File -> Automate. They're pretty decent.

Photoshop adds a gay thing to to the top of each page of the large images, and I want the photo gallery to fit in with the rest of my website.

Like what, a rainbow? A big title that says "man love is great"?

I don't knwo what "gay thing" it adds, but I'm sure you can edit it out using something like Homesite or other decent text editor. Highlight all the code you want to remove and do an "extended replace" but replace it with nothing. Check the box that tells it to do it for the whole folder.

:D It adds a table to the top of each enlarged image page that's shaded grey and all it has in it is the first part of the filename. I unchecked all the options for it to display but it still shows up.

I'll check out Homesite, thanks for the suggestion.

You should try some of the PHP photogallery software. I think there was a post like this in Software just recently. It might've been yours though... :confused:

I also used a PHP tutorial to make a gallery. It's nice because you only need to write code for two pages and then it just subs in the appropriate picture.

Or you could use a premade PHP gallery like this one.

I just downloaded the trial version of homesite, and I'm not seeing any option to make the change for all files in the folder.

EDIT: Found it in the search menu...didn't think it would be in there :)

if you have macromedia dreamweaver + fireworks you can make a photo album similarly to the photoshop one, execept without the extra stuff. It would basically just be a table with thumbs of each pic, click on them and link to just the picture without any arrow jumbo or navigation.

here's an example of how it might look (just the thumbs and links) here


it's under commands->create web photo album
