Usage
editThe <hovergallery>
tags are used exactly like the <gallery>
tags. To create a basic hover gallery, simply write:
<hovergallery> Image:abc.jpg Image:xyz.jpg </hovergallery>
By default, when the mouse hovers over a thumbnail, the full image is shown. But the full image may sometimes be too big, so there are two optional parameters, maxhoverwidth
and maxhoverheight
, that limit the max width and height of the full image. An example using those parameters would be:
<hovergallery maxhoverwidth=800 maxhoverheight=800> Image:abc.jpg Image:xyz.jpg </hovergallery>
All the standard gallery parameters are still available, for example:
<hovergallery mode=packed caption="This is a hover gallery"> Image:abc.jpg Image:xyz.jpg </hovergallery>
