Howdy, I know this blog post is a little old, but your tutorial is very high on the google search results! I hope you still read the comments/questions.

I, like the above other user, am trying to use TAGS instead of photosets. Your response & example response all link back to this post.

I know i have to alter the "photosets.getPhotos" and "photoset_id" in the script, but i cannot find any example of what to change http://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?&method=... + apiKey + '&photoset_id=

I have the same issue as above, although I copied yr source almost exactly.

Although changing the background to 'no-repeat' is easy enough (in var imgCont), I'm still left with small photos, rather than large ones, like in the sample.

you can see what I mean at http://nationalheadquarters.org/c-list-pics/flcik...

also, it is worth noting that I am posting this comment as Kyle Rush hisself, as did the person above!

Is the a mediatemple problem?

thanks bill.

to my knowledge it isn't really possible to not expose your api key with javascript. if that is a concern of yours then you may have to do some of the work on the server side to hide your key.

Kyle;

Concerning [ Your API Key ] – I noticed your code doesn't include "YOUR" api key and I can see why. Can you do this in a browser, as oppsed to the server, without exposing your apikey? Javascript running in a browser isn't private so someone could grab and abuse your apikey.

Nice, instructive example though.

is there any way to have the photos from the "flickr favorite" rather than a set?
