Title: Web export
Post by: jerrygrasso96 on September 23, 2008, 09:42:38 am
I just built my new website (with Notepad) and used Lightroom 2 to export my galleries. It works fine, except I had to put a note in the upper right corner of the flash gallery for the user to user his browser back button to get back to my main page. Is there a better way to do this? Or do I need to tamper with the exported index.html page to get what I want? You can see what I am talking about here... (http://www.jerrygrassophotos.com/) Thanks for whatever help anyone can suggest.

Jerry,

 It may seem a hack to you, but to me as a viewer I appreciate a clear way to navigate a website, rather than having to look for some little cryptic icon to take me back.

So, then you don't have a problem to use the browser back button to get back?

No, not me. I tend to leave a web site when I have to work to find my way around.
I don't care how good the photography is, if it is a PITA to navigate I'm not going to stay.


Rich

PS. Your photography is very good also.

If you type in the Contact Info pane something like 'home page' or 'Main Page' or whatever, then in the 'Web or Mail Link' pane type in the url for the page you want to go back to. Here's an example: [a href=\"http://www.decay.johnwoodphotowork.com/decay/]http://www.decay.johnwoodphotowork.com/decay/[/url]
Regards, John
