Re: Limit Image Width Faster
-----------------------------------
[quote user="Mighty Gorgon" post="1830"]try to load one big image, let's say 3MB, and then you will see that the image will be shown after some seconds :wink: !
Using that script the image is not resized... only the WIDTH will be set to a lower value, but the image will be loaded as full!!![/quote]
I know that :wink: 
[quote user="Mighty Gorgon" post="1830"]Using that script the image is not resized... only the WIDTH will be set to a lower value, but the image will be loaded as full!!![/quote]
Also the limit image width function does the same.
[quote user="Mighty Gorgon" post="1830"]Using PHP instead, images will be recompressed on the server... so just another image will be loaded...
Try to believe! :wink:[/quote]
Mighty, I think that there are 2 different options in xs... one that with php makes thumbnails and so a new smaller and compressed image is generated, and another, which is limit image width, which with php just sets width="max_im_width", and loads the full image just as my script does, with the difference that my script just uses javascript to resize the image after it has been loaded and showed fully, and the xs limit image width uses php.
... I can be wrong, so I'll re-test it on my site and I'll let you know :wink:
[b]EDIT:[/b]
[url=http://yourband.netsons.org/xs/viewtopic.php?t=3]I've tested, and the limit image width function does load the full image and just sets width="MX_IM_WIDTH". :roll:
