    What i look for is a way to have the client upload an image for a specific page using a tv and that when cliked on it shows a popup.

    Maybe we could have a tv where you could upload an image and that this image is used to create a link for lightbox or any other xhml popup posebility. that does not require a snippet call from the client.
    and when the client uploads his image there must be a posibility to set title and alt atributes.

    I have a client who wants to have these parameters all set for SEO but also want to upload the images himself. Big dillemma for me : how to make this a s easy as posible for the client but still have the SEO titels and a popup image. without using 4 tv’s for 1 image. he wants 5 or 6 images on one page.

    I looked at maxigalery but there I can not set title or alt and it need a complicated (for the client complicated) snippetcall for each page.

    If any one has a idea how to do this that would be verry helpfull


    I am not a programmer but I understand the logic and a thing like this should be verry posible as a tv I think.

      Whoa.. step back. What exactly are the benefits of SEO on pop-up images? Particularly on images that pop-up within the browser?

      But assuming the client just demands this..

      How about you treat each one as a webpage - use title and longtitle for alt and title (or whatever), with a TV for the small pic and a TV for the large pic. Oh and an alias. You can then devise a simple snippet which pulls this all together, and even lets your client use the alias instead of a number: eg:

      [[popup? &page=`monkey`]]

      Further, it should be possible to hack about that "link to MODx page" thing to put this snippet call in using the RTE.
        No, I don't know what OpenGeek's saying half the time either.

          Ah.

          You’re probably still best off going down the popup-is-document route, mainly because of the unknown number of them on a page, and this being the best way of associating multiple fields with one thing.
