    <p>Possible, probably.</p> <p>Also, probably not the best idea. Your big issue to overcome here is orientation of thumbnails. What if you're dealing with a panorama? Certainly, shrinking it down is going to create a very unsightly "squished" image, as would a very tall image. It's rare that everyone deals in 4X3 or 16X9 100% of the time. So, you'll need a mechanism to pad out the image. Even if the ratio is correct, it's not going to resize as cleanly as you could with a program like Photoshop or Gimp.</p> <p>The other major issue in this thought process is that you're going to be sending massive amounts of unnecessary data to the server via the larger images. It'll take longer to load, fill up the DOM unnecessarily, and overall just inhibit the UI experience.</p> <p>There are a number of ways to get around this, none of them pure CSS. I've tackled this several times, each in a unique way based on the client. For one client that wanted things totally custom, it was a custom uploader, resizing via iMagick (part of image magic) and custom CSS/Javascript for the album with major interactivity. In another instance, I use <a href="http://gallery.menalto.com" rel="nofollow">Gallery</a> as the backend--handling the thumbnail creation, uploading, titling, cropping, and organizing-- and then just pulled the reformatted image links out of the DB to display them in a more appealing manner. You could save yourself even more trouble and just use something like the Flickr api to pull images for your use.</p> <p>Here's a tut on <a href="http://www.apaddedcell.com/creating-photo-galleries-imagemagick" rel="nofollow">using ImageMagick to do thumbnails.</a></p>

    1. COI'm already generating the thumbnails on the server, but the way I'm doing it preserves aspect ratio and does no cropping. I was hoping to avoid having to crop the images on the server, but it looks like I'll have to do that. Thanks!

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
