Hi Jonas,
I notice that you have decided to still have a thumbnail url generate
when the --no-thumbnails option is in effect, but to have it simply be
the same as the original image.
This is not what I would have done. I would not only not create the
thumbnail, but would also suppress the thumbnail-url-postfix attribute.
I would expect the client to make a choice of what to display in the
absence of that attribute. For example, my Perl client does this:
# output the image thumbnail (if it exists), linked to the main image
print "<A HREF=\"$self->{elementLocation}\">";
print "<IMG BORDER=\"0\" ALT=\"$self->{elementName}\" ";
if (defined $self->{elementThumbnailLocation}) {
print "SRC=\"$self->{elementThumbnailLocation}\"";
}
else {
print "WIDTH=\"128\" SRC=\"$self->{elementLocation}\"";
}
where the various (renamed) XML attributes are in the $self hashref.
Can anyone tell me whether the other clients behave this way?
Regards
David
PS. Wolfgang, I would also like to hear your thoughts on this from an
"MRML policy" point of view.
