Hi
I have a panorama with an aspect ratio of 7:1 i.e. if I set the image to be 500px high it will be 3500px wide. I want to display this in a window of say 500x700px and have it auto-scroll left to right and repeat. I would like the user to be able to pause and perhaps zoom in on the image. What is the best way to do this?
Thanks
Mike

I did this quite a few years ago, you can crib the script from this page:

This variant introduces some controls to make the scrolling happen under user control:

Neither of these are using Prototype to do their trick – it’s just a JavaScript method at the bottom of the page.

Excellent Walter, many thanks. I will give it a try tomorrow. Would be nice to be able to zoom though.

Here it is

This is not the final version and I will probably not use it on my website. The idea is to project the image as part of an exhibition and let the public have the mouse.

Looks nice however I would reduce the width of the Scroll Div a bit - maybe to 950px as I am seeing a bit of the image to the right of the poster frame.

Thanks David, as I said, this is not the finished version as I have not taken the photos for it yet! It needs a perfect day and 30 frames on my Canon 400. That will make it something like 20,000 pixels long and viewers will be able to count the bricks. At that stage I will resize the div and the page to whatever the projector will take and make the poster frame to fit that.
There are bells and whistles that I might like, zoom, popup flags on places of interest, but they will have to wait for now.

Yes that sounds interesting - glad viewers wont be expected to download that size of image.

Popups, rollover some of the guys in the back row - http://www.deltadesign.co/fw_examples/slider2-unitip.html

Wow David, that looks great. Might take me a while to work it out though. Do you mind if I scream for help when I get time to play with it?
