dojotoolkit

[Peter Gragert]

The dojotoolkit looks very very nice.

I miss only a beginners tutorial how to use REST or just an easy slideshow with a link to an own (JSON) image library, not Flickr or .... but local on my server.

Dojo is quite nice, I agree. Although jQuery is more widely used these days.

Do you have a question?

The slideshow examples from dojotoolkit use Flickr ...
How to change the source, such that
.../myimages/img.json
.../myimages/img1.jpg
...
.../myimages/img50.jpg

and the img.json links to the images img*.jpg ...

so to say a replacement of

  <script type="text/javascript">
    dojo.require("dojox.image.SlideShow");
    dojo.require("dojox.data.FlickrRestStore");

    dojo.ready(function(){

        // Initialize the store with a FlickrRestStore
        var flickrRestStore = new dojox.data.FlickrRestStore();
        var req = {
            query: {
                userid: "44153025@N00",
                apikey: "8c6803164dbc395fb7131c9d54843627"
            },
            count: 20
        };
        dijit.byId('slideshow2').setDataStore(flickrRestStore, req);
    });

Take a look at the Image Slideshow example.

I did! And did not read all indeed you mean this line (bad Peter) :

<div data-dojo-type="dojox.image.SlideShow" id="slideshow1"></div>
<div data-dojo-id="imageItemStore" data-dojo-type="dojo.data.ItemFileReadStore" data-dojo-props="url:'images.json'"></div>

Will try soon if THAT is what I looked for.

Nevertheless now already: thanks!
