VION is extremely easy to use, manage and update. It can be easily integrated into your website by placing a piece of javascript code between the <head></head> tags. Updating your gallery is as easy as editing a document.
How to Use
Adding Vion Gallery to Your Website
You need to add some html code to your website to be able to use VION. You should start with a main container DIV called vion-gallery. Each slide DIV under vion-gallery represents a particular slide. See the code tree below to understand it better.
<!-- Gallery starts --> <div id="my-gallery" class="vion-gallery"> <!-- Gallery mask starts --> <div class="gallery-mask"> <!-- Slides start --> <div class="slides"> <div class="slide"> <div class="image-holder"> <img src="images/image-name.jpg" /> </div> <div class="info"> <h2>Title goes here</h2> <p>Subtitle goes here.</p> </div> </div> <div class="slide"> <div class="image-holder"> <img src="images/image-name.jpg" /> </div> <div class="info"> <h2>Title goes here</h2> <p>Subtitle goes here.</p> </div> </div> <div class="slide"> <div class="image-holder"> <img src="images/image-name.jpg" /> </div> <div class="info"> <h2>Title goes here</h2> <p>Subtitle goes here.</p> </div> </div> </div> <!-- Slides end --> </div> <!-- Gallery mask ends --> <!-- Thumbnails start --> <div class="thumbnails"> <ul> <li><img src="images/thumbs/thumbnail.jpg" /></li> <li><img src="images/thumbs/thumbnail.jpg" /></li> <li><img src="images/thumbs/thumbnail.jpg" /></li> </ul> </div> <!-- Thumbnails end --> </div> <!-- Gallery ends -->
Initializing the Plugin
After getting your markup done, it's time to initialize the plugin. Initializing VION is pretty simple. Just add the following script between your head tags.
<head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/> <title>Vion - jQuery Image Gallery</title> <link href="css/vion.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-1.5.1.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.vion-1.0.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $(function() { $("#my-gallery").vion(); }); </script> </head>
