ImageGallery extension not working properly

I've tried to use the ImageGallery extension that's built in by default to the latest version.
I've used the Image Manager to  create a new folder and then uploaded a couple of images - large dimensions.
I use the ImageGallery tag on a new page, and get - correctly - a set of thumbnails (correctly proportioned).

However, these thumbnails do not have correct links back to the full-sized photos. The links, instead, follow the pattern: http://localhost/cmsmadesimple/test_images?page=&img=0
In other words, there's no page specified, and the link fails.

this has happened on 2 separate servers - tho' both running Windows XP using the XAMPP webserver package (including apache/mysql/php).

I'm getting the same behaviour on a new install to a standard webhost running some linux os

I assumed that the image functions are all working OK because the thumbnails are being correctly generated....

Any clues as to why this should be happening?

thanks

Tested with svn version.

and getting link like /index.php?page=test&img=0

works like a charm. Thumbnails are created by imagemanager when you upload new images.

If you need image gallery in 0.13 and imagegallery tag wont work, try album module. It has same functions and then some

Hope this helps

gallery2 is hard to install on current stable as it wants to use full adodb and cmsms is shipped with slightly modified adodblite (this will change in 1.0)


search these forums for more info

thanks - I'm sure Album will be ok once I've tweaked the stylesheet(s) a bit...and worked out why it's refusing to show the full-size versions of some images!!
