$image object

I’ve been trying to get nextgen gallery to do a couple of things it doesn’t do “out of the box”:

1)Link gallery thumbnails to their own page with the full image on, and
2)Integrate a hover zoom effect onto that target page.

I thought I had suceeded, by tweaking the “imagebrowser.php” file ( actually a copy of it in it’s own nggallery folder in my theme folder) and using “NextEnd image magnifier” plugin.

All seemed well until I put more than 1 gallery on a page!

Now $image-imageURL returns multiple urls – one for each gallery!
Is there some way to “reset” the $image object so that it contains only the url of the image that gets clicked on?

The “hack” I’ve used is to create the following code for imagebrowser.php:

<?php
$title = $image->alttext;
$description = $image->description;
$image_url = $image->imageURL;
echo do_shortcode('[magny image="'.$image_url.'" title="" description="" align="left" click="1" scroll_zoom="1" small_image="" canvas_mode="1" maxwidth="400px" zoom="1" dia="140px" skin="new-im-frame-photo,new-title-below,new-description-off,new-slider-below,new-im-magnifier-light" ]');
?>
<div id="single_pic_in_ng_imagebrowser">
<h1 class="title"><?php echo $title ?></h1>
<div class="description"><?php echo $description ?></div>
</div>

I’m guessing the problem could be with the facr that I’m using the imagebrowser to display my single final image. Seemed like a good idea at the time…

Any suggestions much appreciated.
