Configuration
This recipe has a variety of configuration options. It can use the options set, or override them in each instance. An example of typical configuration would be:
# smart colorbox cookbook
include_once("$FarmD/cookbook/smart_colorbox.php");
# defaults
$smart_colorbox_settings['maxweewidth'] = '300';
$smart_colorbox_settings['maxweeheight'] = '300';
$smart_colorbox_settings['maxbigwidth'] = '900';
$smart_colorbox_settings['maxbigheight'] = '700';
Usage
Standard usage
It can be used with no options, so will just use the defaults image sizes. To use it like this, just use text such as...
image:myimagefilename.jpg
Advanced usage
It can be used with no options, so will just use the defaults image sizes. To use it like this, just use text such as...
(:smartimage image=myimagefilename.jpg maxweewidth=50 maxweeheight=50 maxbigwidth=800 maxbigheight=600 text="my image" :)
...all of the extra parameters are optional. They simply over-ride the defaults if set. If the 'text' value is not set it just uses the site name.
