A gallery within a gallery.

Im trying to make a gallery with multiple gallerys on the inside. Evertime I try the galleries nevershow up. Is there a tutorial that can show me how to go these simple things? I tried the one one the help section of smugmug but I still couldnt get it to work.

Hi, we don't actually do galleries inside galleries.

Please try the video help here:

If you have questions after this, please ask, we'll be here!

Chris: Another smugmug user held my "not-very-HTML-saavvy" hand once, long enough for me to set up the following galleries within a gallery. The "trick" was to put HTML commands in the description section of the main gallery. It got the results I was looking for at the time. If the gallery format below is close to what you're looking for, the following should give you a hint or two...best of luck!

http://papajay.smugmug.com/Weddings/224075 This is a "sub-category" gallery under the Weddings category titled "John and Dawn"...same sub-category is use for the remaining galleries in the group.

http://papajay.smugmug.com/gallery/1818487 This is, for lack of a better description, the "Table of Contents" gallery.

The following HTML script is placed in the description field of the above gallery:

<FONT COLOR="red"><A HREF="http://papajay.smugmug.com/gallery/1815909/linking.htm"> Ch. 1) Decorating the "Hall"</A></font>
