Hi Agota,
I think that it’s due to the images preload function that calls the URL with a random number parameter on the request to let IE work fine (otherwise IE doen’t change image…); that cause the browser not to cache images…
the function is:
function preloadImg(u){ var o = new Image (); o.onload = function (){changePhoto (u);}; o.onerror = function (){alert ("can't load " + u);}; o.src = u+"?rnd="+Math.floor (Math.random () * 1000); }

Try to remove +”?rnd=”+Math.floor (Math.random () * 1000);.
Bye,
Matteo

Hi Matteo,

First of all , thank you very much for this awesome plugin. Love it’s simplicity and ease of use.

I am just experiencing one issue where the images used in the slide-show does not get cached. I uploaded a demo (35 image) of it to my development server and it ran up 1.6GB traffic in 1 day.

Just wondering if it might be something that I got wrong or something that I did not include in the script.

Look forward to your reply.

Thanks,
Agota

Hi Karesten,
I get your example and:
1. the images filename should be without spaces;
2. the png mask should have transparent background otherwise you’ll see only your png while images are running behind.

That’s why it doesn’t work.
Bye,
Matteo

Hi,

I like your little MaskedGallery. But I am struggeling with three thinks.
1. on the demo, pictures are just shown in half of the “monitor” or other mask. How can I change it that the picture is shown in the total mask? If have seen it works on the webside mentioned below.
2. if I replace one of the demo pictures with one of mine (same size, jpg etc.) they will not be shown. What is it that I make wrong?
3. if I use one of mine picturses as mask, it will be shown. But neither your demo pictures nor mine will be shown inside.

I have used jquery.js in the version 1.2.1 and the latest. I have just made adjustment to the js call and container in the html script. Nothing changed in *.js

Can you help me?

Karsten

Hi Julien,
I’ve updated the (mb)MaskedGallery with the crossFade transition as default.
