[Plugin: Highslide 4 WordPress *reloaded*] Link via image rather than text

    Hi

    I have a table (using table-reloaded) that I want to show in a highslide popup window. I can make this happen with a text link:

    ‘[highslide](ECI France Summer Study Programs 2011;Click to see table;640;450)[table id=4 /][/highslide]’

    But what I need is the link to be an image (a nice big clickable button). Try as I might I cannot see how to replace the text with the image ref, in a way that works across browsers, gives the hand cursor and most importantly does not get corrupted when switching between WP Visual and HTML views.

    Many thanks for any advice

    Will be available in 1.19
    Instead a “Expander Name” just specify a URL to a valid image (jpg,jpeg,gif,png). If the Script detects a given Image as URL it will now display the image instead the name of the expander.

    Copy & Paste Example:

    [highslide](MyExpandedTitle;http://myimageurl/cc.jpg;800;600)Your Expander Text or HTML Code[/highslide]

    Structured:

    [highslide]
(
<MyExpandedTitle>;
<URL|or Name>;
<width>;
<height>;
)
<Content displayed in expander>
[/highslide]

    OK, I can place an image in the expander title area, and clicking it opens the expander window. But when I try to place the image in the expander text area, which is what I really want to do, it does not work, and only echoes the link URL as text. Is it possible to put an image reference in the text area, and if so what would be the syntax? Please solariz (Marko) let me know, because I really like this plugin and it will accomplish something important for me in designing my site… -LME (leselkind.me)

    After playing around a bit more I have managed to use html tags in the text area as well, so when I click on an image it opens the highslide window containing multiple images and captions. Cool effect. I tried to nest it deeper, calling one Highslide window inside another, but haven’t succeeded in doing that. If someone tries it and it’s possible I’d love to hear about it. -LME
