My goal is to link to photo galleries directly on a web page that uses a Jquery’s “Animate” and JS/CSS. The page in question is witold.org (click on either photo to go to a gallery I want to link directly.)

I learned this is not possible due to security issues.

As such, I was thinking that perhaps I can create additional HTML pages for each gallery with just the gallery script. For example, this page.

But even though I am using the same gallery script, linking to the same CSS and same JS, the gallery has a lot of errors. Gallery seems to partially load: no photos load initially but when mouse is over the thumbs they show up, and when one clicks on a thumb the large JPG shows up. But then everything seems to stop working. I can't increment to next photo via clicking thumbs or clicking arrows.

I am missing some fundamental piece of this, but not sure what... I guess my question is that if I navigate to the gallery via main page it works but when I strip only gallery code to a seperate html page the code fails.

Any ideas?

i assume it's missing shared files (javascripts, css, etc) that are normally loaded from the main page of the gallery

The weirdest part of all is that when I load idex_gal.html and start clicking on the thumbs immediately, the gallery seems to work for the first 5-10 seconds.

Then it just hangs and is not responsive to clicking on thumbs...
