Hi All,

For a CMS I want to create a Flickr Uploadr like application for win32:
http://static.flickr.com/33/58999735_f3362bd4ab_o.jpg

I've done some Win32 programming, but I'm still wondering about
how I can create a scrollable 'frame' where the images are put
in by the user?

And do you maybe have some advice on portability between
Win, Mac, Linux?

Thanks,
Roxlu

You are asking how to do "windows shell integration". Google for that, to
find the best forum for your next question.

None whatsoever. The three platforms comptete by explicitly running
completely different GUIs. Each one will integrate their shell environments
(the scrolling view of file icons) in different, incompatible ways.

I'm more looking for a way to create a 'scrollable' list with images,
like in
that util.

Thanx

All those platforms' web browsers have systems to write a client-side
application. Internet Explorer has HTA, for example. Then you would write
Javascript (enhanced by the Windows ActiveX Scripting stuff) to read a
folder of images and <imgeach one into your web interface.

Warning: If I'm wrong, you will get few chances someone here will review my
post and set me to rights. You should post to a newsgroup that discusses
writing GUIs, for best results.
