AJAX-ZOOM Responsive Full Screen Lightbox (Fancybox) Examples

In this example AJAX-ZOOM is loaded into the maximized lighbox (Fancybox). The sizes of the Fancybox and AJAX-ZOOM player inside are determined by the window size. By changing the browser window size (orientation change on iOS) all sizes are instantly adjusted. In order to call AJAX-ZOOM with Fancybox in such a way we have created a wrapper extension jquery.axZm.openAjaxZoomInFancyBox.js which handles everything needed.

Besides jQuery core library (e.g. http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js) you will need Fancybox JavaScript and AJAX-ZOOM main JavaScript file (/axZm/jquery.axZm.js) to include into the head section of the page. For some methods retrieving the images (CSV) our slightly modified version of Fancybox is required (look for explanation below). The download package contains all necessary files.

$.axZm.openAjaxZoomInFancyBox.js is also used as option in other extensions and examples:

By the way - this example can serve as tutorial on defining the content to load into AJAX-ZOOM player! There are some other ways of embedding and passing this information to AJAX-ZOOM (see other examples), but the main parameters (zoomData, zoomDir, 3dDir, zoomFile and zoomID) remain unchanged on default. See appendix in the documentation if you need to define your own parameters.

Defining images over "zoomData" parameter and separate image paths with '|'

Same results as "PHP array compressed zoomData" below can be achieved by simply passing CSV as zoomData parameter - by "|" separated paths to the images. This does not require any PHP code in your actual application. PLEASE NOTE: in order to do this we have slightly modified the latest fancybox Ver. 1.3.4; Please use our modified version, because the standard version will expect an image if it founds .jpg, .png or other image formats in a string and will return a massage saying the image can't be found. The modification enforces ajax request if "zoomData" is found in the string.

	<!-- Simple link with onclick -->
	<a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="jQuery.openAjaxZoomInFancyBox('example=23&
	zoomData=/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_001.jpg|/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_002.jpg|
	/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_003.jpg|/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_004.jpg|
	/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_005.jpg|/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_006.jpg|
	/pic/zoom/fashion/fashion_002.jpg|/pic/zoom/fashion/fashion_005.jpg')">2. CSV - zoomData full paths separated  by "|"</a>
	

Additionally you can pass "zoomID" parameter. The value of "zoomID" (number of an image in the array) determines which image has to be loaded first. ->
Test: open specific file first with zoomID

Instead of "zoomID" you can pass "zoomFile" parameter. The value of "zoomFile" (full path with the image filename) determines which image has to be loaded first. ->
Test: open specific file first with zoomFile

1a. Binding with $('selector').openAjaxZoomInFancyBox(options);

	jQuery("#exampleLink2").openAjaxZoomInFancyBox({
		axZmPath: "../axZm/",
		queryString: "example=23&zoomID=2&zoomData=/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_001.jpg|
		/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_002.jpg|/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_003.jpg|
		/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_004.jpg|/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_005.jpg|
		/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_006.jpg|/pic/zoom/fashion/fashion_002.jpg|
		/pic/zoom/fashion/fashion_005.jpg",
		fullScreenApi: false,
		boxMargin: 30,
		boxPadding: 10,
		boxShowCloseButton: true,			
		 
		ajaxZoomCallbacks: {
			/*
			onLoad: function (){
				alert ("This is test alert call");
			},
			onImageChange: function(info){
				console.log(info);
			}
			*/
		}
	});
	

Defining images over "zoomData" parameter as string serialized and compressed from PHP array

Images are gathered in a PHP array. Afterwards they are compressed to a string. Finally this string will be passed as "zoomData" query string parameter to AJAX-ZOOM.

	// With this function you can compress a PHP array with images to a string
	// This string can then be passed to AJAX-ZOOM as "zoomData" parameter
	// It will be instantly decompressed into PHP array inside AJAX-ZOOM (/axZm/zoomObjects.inc.php)
	function axZmCompress($data){
		return strtr(base64_encode(addslashes(gzcompress(serialize($data),9))), "+/=", "-_,");
	}
	
	// Create empty array
	$zoomData = array();
	
	// Add images to the array
	$zoomData[1] = '/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_001.jpg'; 
	$zoomData[2] = '/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_002.jpg'; 
	$zoomData[3] = '/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_003.jpg'; 
	$zoomData[4] = '/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_004.jpg'; 
	$zoomData[5] = '/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_005.jpg'; 
	$zoomData[6] = '/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_006.jpg'; 
	$zoomData[7] = '/pic/zoom/fashion/fashion_002.jpg'; 
	$zoomData[8] = '/pic/zoom/fashion/fashion_005.jpg';	
			
	// Compress array into string
	$zoomData = axZmCompress($zoomData);
	

	<!-- Simple link with onclick -->
	<a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="jQuery.openAjaxZoomInFancyBox('example=23&zoomData=<?php echo $zoomData;?>');">1. PHP array compressed zoomData</a>
	

Additionally you can pass "zoomID" parameter. The value of "zoomID" (number of an image in the array) determines which image has to be loaded first. ->
Test: open specific file first with zoomID

Instead of "zoomID" you can pass "zoomFile" parameter. The value of "zoomFile" (full path with the image filename) determines which image has to be loaded first. ->
Test: open specific file first with zoomFile

No need to define absolute paths in "zoomData" parameter

$zoom['config']['pic'] in /axZm/zoomConfig.inc.php can be used as prefix to all paths passed to AJAX-ZOOM. If you need to point to the image located in "/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_004.jpg" and $zoom['config']['pic'] is "/pic/zoom/" the path can be just "boutique/boutique_004.jpg". No matter what is defined in $zoom['config']['pic'] you can pass the full path too, e.g "/pic/zoom/boutique/boutique_004.jpg" will work as well. PLEASE NOTE: in order to do this we have slightly modified the latest fancybox Ver. 1.3.4; Please use our modified version, because the standard version will expect an image if it founds .jpg, .png or other image formats in a string and will return a massage saying the image can't be found. The modification enforces ajax request if 'zoomData' is found in the string.

	<!-- Simple link with onclick -->
	<a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="jQuery.openAjaxZoomInFancyBox('example=23&zoomData=
	fashion/fashion_1.jpg&zoomData=boutique/boutique_001.jpg|boutique/boutique_002.jpg|
	boutique/boutique_003.jpg|boutique/boutique_004.jpg|boutique/boutique_005.jpg|
	boutique/boutique_006.jpg|fashion/fashion_002.jpg|fashion/fashion_005.jpg');">
	3. $zoom['config']['pic'] as prefix</a>
	

Additionally you can pass "zoomID" parameter. The value of "zoomID" (number of an image in the array) determines which image has to be loaded first. ->
Test: open specific file first with zoomID

Instead of "zoomID" you can pass "zoomFile" parameter. The value of "zoomFile" (full path with the image filename) determines which image has to be loaded first. ->
Test: open specific file first with zoomFile

Load entire directory with "zoomDir" parameter

You can load entire directory with images by passing zoomDir parameter e.g. "/pic/zoom/animals"; As in method 3 above - provided, that $zoom['config']['pic'] is set to e.g. "/pic/" the value of zoomDir parameter can be just "zoom/animals" or if $zoom['config']['pic'] is set to "/pic/zoom/", the value of zoomDir can be "animals".

	<!-- Simple link with onclick -->
	<a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="jQuery.openAjaxZoomInFancyBox('example=23&zoomDir=/pic/zoom/animals');">4. zoomDir - load entire directory with images</a>
	

Additionally you can pass "zoomID" parameter. The value of "zoomID" (number of an image in the array) determines which image has to be loaded first. ->
Test: open specific file first with zoomID

Instead of "zoomID" you can pass "zoomFile" parameter. The value of "zoomFile" (full path with the image filename) determines which image has to be loaded first. ->
Test: open specific file first with zoomFile

Load 360/3D with "3dDir" parameter

Load 360/3D animations by passing the parameter 3dDir - path to the directory with images.

Please Note: the only difference between regular 360 spin and 3D (multirow) is that original images are placed in subfolders of the target folder. E.g. the path passed to the folder is "/pic/zoom3d/Uvex_Occhiali" images of each row are placed in subfolders, e.g. /pic/zoom3d/Uvex_Occhiali/row_1, /pic/zoom3d/Uvex_Occhiali/row_2, /pic/zoom3d/Uvex_Occhiali/row_3; You do not need to define these subfolders anywhere. AJAX-ZOOM will instantly detect them and procede all the images in them.

	<!-- Simple link with onclick -->
	<a href="javascript:void(0)" class="azDemoButton" onclick="jQuery.openAjaxZoomInFancyBox('example=17&3dDir=/pic/zoom3d/Uvex_Occhiali');">5. 3dDir - 360 / 3D animations</a>
	

Additionally you can pass "zoomID" parameter. The value of "zoomID" (number of an image in the array) determines which image has to be loaded first. ->
Test: open specific file first with zoomID

Load anything above in responsive Fancybox as IFRAME

	<a class="azDemoButton" onclick="jQuery.openAjaxZoomInFancyBox({href: 'example33_vario.php?zoomData=/pic/zoom/estate/house_01.jpg|/pic/zoom/animals/animals_001.jpg|/pic/zoom/furniture/furniture_002.jpg', iframe: true})" href="javascript:void(0)">IFRAME gallery</a>
	

	<a class="azDemoButton" onclick="jQuery.openAjaxZoomInFancyBox({href: 'example33_vario.php?3dDir=/pic/zoom3d/Uvex_Occhiali', iframe: true})" href="javascript:void(0)">IFRAME 360</a>
