Hi Laza

After Updating Animatics to Verison 3.0 I got the following Issue with the Thumbnails.
Please see the Printscreens.
After the update some Thumbnails have a strange Link to Gardasee-Venedig 2020 ">

Please give us a link to the album. We can't debug a screenshot.

Without access to the original images, I can't quite sort it out, but it appears that some of your images have a link embedded in their titles, probably in the IPTC Object Name field, or possibly some malformed HTML tags in that field.

Under Settings > Advanced > Metadata > Title source, try choosing No IPTC.

(I notice that you're also telling jAlbum to embed the photographic data in the generated images - bad idea, since it often causes color problems.)

Based on the embedded metadata in the album file, this is the content that seems wrong
Object Name: <a href="https://www.andi-schegg.ch" onclick="window.location='h
 
other data
Image Description: Ferienfeeling im <a href="https://www.hotellido-lugano.com" onclick="window.open('https://www.hotellido-lugano.com/de/13/default.aspx', '_blank'); return false;" title="öffne diesen Link in einem neuen Fenster...">Lido Seegarten</a> | Lugano

Yes, this is what's "hanging" outside of the <a href> tag:
<strong>Gardasee-Venedig 2020</strong>
That's not present in the project files anywhere - that's what makes me think it's coming from the IPTC metadata.

Hi everybody
I'll try to explain my setup to you
I use the ACDSee Photo Studio program for image processing.

In this I assign text for titles and comments, which are automatically inserted into Jalbum when I create an album (IPTC data).
For each album, my first picture has only the text of the albumtitle, i.e. Gardasee-Venice 2020 in bold font
Gardasee-Venedig 2020, and as Comment some other Text.

From the second to the last picture it is always the same link that points to the first picture in the album
<a href="https://www.andi-schegg.ch" onclick="window.location='https://www.andi-schegg.ch/_Reisen/2020_Gardasee/album/', '_self'; return false;" title="zurück zum ersten Bild...">Gardasee-Venedig 2020</a>

I've been doing it since I've been using animatics and haven't had any problems with any update.
I don't understand why this problem occurs and what i have to change.
The problem only exists from the picture
https://andi-schegg.ch/_Reisen/2020_Gardasee/album/index.html#img=000.jpg
to the picture
https://andi-schegg.ch/_Reisen/2020_Gardasee/album /index.html#img=019_AND03676.jpg
from the picture
https://andi-schegg.ch/_Reisen/2020_Gardasee/album/index.html#img=020_AND03705.jpg
the link in the thumbnails works.

I'm looking forward to an answer

BR Andi

PS: I corrected the Link to the First Picture of the Album, I copied first a wrong one

This will work:
<a href="https://www.andi-schegg.ch" title=" zurück zum ersten Bild... "><strong>Gardasee-Venedig 2020</strong></a>
But it looks like in some of your photos, you have this, instead:
<a href="https://www.andi-schegg.ch" title=" zurück zum ersten Bild... "></a><strong>Gardasee-Venedig 2020</strong>
Notice that the HTML anchor tag is closed at the wrong place. Look closely at what you've entered for those images.

I take it back. It looks like the skin is handling the first 20 images one way, and the subsequent images a different way. That "20" is what we call a "suspicious number" - Laza's bugs often show up precisely at 20 images.

Laza needs to take a look at this.

ETA: BTW, feeding this page through an HTML validator produces scores of errors, all involving improperly closed HTML tags. I can't sort out whose fault those are. But they all involve the same underlying problem - there are unescaped quote marks where there shouldn't be any. In other words, there are quote marks within quote marks, which causes all sorts of havoc.

Hi there

Thanks Jeff for that answer.
What I have found in the index.html file which is generated from Jalbum:
In Line 47 there is the html code for the images.
From the second to the 20. image beginns with:
<a class="thumb preload landscape"
and end with:
<strong>Gardasee-Venedig 2020</a>"></a>

From the 21. images beginns with:
<a class="thumb lazyload landscape"
and ends with much less html code:
title="Sunrise | Venedig"></a>

I hope that helps a little bit to found a Solution

I forgot about this thread, sorry.

I guess it's not a skin error. I tried to decode your comment, but whatever I did, has ended up in broken HTML.

Can you please post here one of those comments?

Are you including a link in the title? It seems the ALT tag is broken too, which should show the title otherwise. No link is allowed here. Naturally, I can remove HTML tags from the titles, but it would be better if we could explain to users that they can't use HTML in every box.

As I see this is the title of the second picture:
<a href =" https:="" www.andi-schegg.ch"="" onclick="window.location='https://www.andi-schegg.ch/_Reisen/2020_Gardasee/album/', '_self'; return false;" title="back to the first picture ...">

This looks very unhealthy.

Hi Laza
Yes, from the second picture there is a link that always refers back to the first picture.

This is the title from the second picture:
<a href="https://www.andi-schegg.ch" onclick="window.location='https://www.andi-schegg.ch/_Reisen/2021_Gardasee/album/', '_self'; return false;" title="zurück zum ersten Bild..."><strong>Gardasee 2021</strong></a>


For me the following questions arise:
  • why did the links work up to version 2.3?
  • why does the link in the thumbnails work from the 20th picture?
