Comment on Vertical alignment of contents inside an element using jQuery by admin

Hi Matt,

Thanks for visiting my blog and posting comment.
Regarding your question, I think it may be due to the image tag. If you’re calling this method in document.ready(), this may happen. Because, document.ready() triggers when the html is loaded – at that time, the images may not be downloaded fully and hence the function will fail. It will work the second time as the image is already cached in browser.

You may try the following to fix the problem.

If possible, include the width and height attribute to the image tag (May be if you’re using, server side scripts like PHP, it should be possible). Eg:

Try calling the align function on window.load() instead of document.ready(). (Because window.load() will be triggered only after loading all images and full dependencies)
Eg: $(window).load(function(){$(”div.special”).vAlign()});

Hope this helps

I am having problems with multiple instances of elements calling the plugin.

The first element that uses the plugin will vertically center, but often the elements that follow will not unless I refresh the browser.

I am vertically centering an image in a fixed width div multiple times on a page for a thumbnail gallery. The images vary in height, which is why I can’t use strait css.

Any ideas on how to solve this issue?

how about adding this posibility to one specific class, instead of entire site? for example, i would like to have this effect within my articles, but i don’t want it all around because it will mess up my page.

great script thanks – ive used it on my site and have taken the slider controls off, is it possible to then get the content to automatically loop round and round, instead of having 2 ends?

Comment on Which is the best lightbox clone for jQuery ? by Dan

Pretty Photo is great. It’s definitely the cleanest and easiest to implement. However I wish someone would create some sort of Lightbox that has a design/layout API so it can be easily customizable.

Good article and thanks for posting it!

When I use jQuery Impromptu with Sitemesh or tiles, slidedown & slideup is strange
in IE. However there is not an issue in firefox.
