Photo Gallery Fixed For IE

So some browsers (cough Internet Explorer cough) were having trouble with with the photo gallery. I think I’ve got the problem fixed, but if you have any problems getting the pictures (or with anything else), please let me know.

If you are interested in the gory details, look below or view the Photon forum.

The photo gallery is powered by PHPWebGallery and is skinned into WordPress using the Photon plug in. I have Wordpress set up into its own directory, but redirected to the main home page (details here). Photon was still using the parent /wordpress/ directory in its paths. This was no problem with Firefox, but for some reason it was choking (404 Page Not Found errors) Internet Explorer.

Changing the PHOTON_ROOT_PATH variable definition, however seems to have fixed the problem.

change the line:

define(PHOTON_ROOT_PATH,get_bloginfo(’wpurl’).’/?a=phpwebgallery’);

to:

define(PHOTON_ROOT_PATH,get_bloginfo(’url’).’/?a=phpwebgallery’);

in order to get photon to point to the directory that is actively used rather than the directory into which Wordpress is actually installed.

    How do I get to the photos you [not your Mom] took in Evanston last July [2006]?
