Simplest Use - Viewer Defaults Example |

|

The following lines are all that is needed to use the Zoomify Image Viewer
in any web page: <head> <script type="text/javascript" src="ZoomifyImageViewer-min.js"></script> <style type="text/css"> #myContainer { width: 900px; height: 550px } </style> <script type="text/javascript"> Z.showImage("myContainer", "ZoomifyImageExample"); </script> </head> <body> <div id="myContainer"></div> </body> |

Why three lines? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1. The first script line tells the web page to include the Viewer script file: "ZoomifyImageViewer-min.js". 2. The second script line creates the container element for the Viewer to exist in: "myContainer". 3. The third script line creates the Viewer and tells it what container element to exist in ("myContainer") and what image to display ("ZoomifyImageExample") Together, the above lines create the Viewer, place it in the page, and tell it what image to show - that's all you need! |

Custom Use - Optional Parameters Example | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
![]() |
In addition to the incredibly simple use described above, the Zoomify
Image Viewer provides extensive options for web designer control -
even without any JavaScript coding. Simple HTML parameters can be
used to customize Viewer layout, what part of an image is initially
displayed, and much more. Parameters are also included to allow skinning
of the toolbar to make it match your web site's look and feel - you
can even hide the bulit-in toolbar and put your own buttons anywhere
in your web page page so your users can zoom and pan the Viewer! The third script line in the example above can optionally include a string of parameters to change how the Viewer looks or behaves. Such a string will look like this (note the use of '&' symbols to join multiple parameters together): "zInitialX=230&zInitialY=340&zInitialZoom=100" Numerous options are supported - a list of supported parameters follows. |
