[Updates since this one: Release 2, Release 3]
About a year ago, I stumbled across IsaacBrowser III, a small and rather nice gallery script.
Since then, I’ve occasionally tinkered with it to fix UI elements I though could be improved, to close a few potential exploits, and add a few extra features. It’s changed so much since then that I though it’d be worth changing the name a bit and releasing it. What triggered this release was that Paul gave me a link to where he was using IsaacBrowser III.
Features:
- Proper 404 handling.
- Better interface (it’s a bit tidier, subdirectories are more obvious and clickable, and it’s easier and more obvious to navigate up to parent directories, more obvious links)
- The thumbnailing code has been modularised.
- Better handling of the
Last-Modified,If-Modified-SinceandExpiresheaders. - Proper escaping of output.
- A bunch of other random stuff.
Note that the method used for creating the name of the cached thumbnail is different because, with my version, you can have a single shared thumbnail cache in the root of the gallery, so you’ll need to clear out the old thumbnails.
If you’re using IsaacBrowser III, give it a whirl. If you’re not, give it a whirl anyway. ![[smile]](/images/smilies/smile.gif){kind=small}
