The shown concept was back in 2003 part of my projectwork in a webdesign-course where i opposed three identically image-galleries, the first one realized with flash, the second one with JavaScript and the third one - the one its all about - with pure HTML and CSS.
The inspiration for this third gallery have been the CSS-experiments on lofotenmoose.info, back in 2003 still literarymoose.info. The - picked up there too - saying "There are many ways to skin a deer" gave me the title, just "one more way ...". The sample on literarymoose.info used CSS-selectors like :hover and :hover:after to insert image-content into a page. It worked with Firefox and Opera, it did'nt with MSIE. As i am not locking out this browser (like literarymoose.info and lofotenmoose.info) my approach was a little more low tech, in return it works with MSIE too.
