embed

issuu let convert many documents to a nice page flip like flash, it also exposes an api.

I'm starting a module to integrate with issuu.com, like the actual ipaper module does it with scribd.com.

I'd be trying to cover as much as the API let us, starting with:

I want to create an image gallery using the "Image Gallery" module, but instead of having the gallery displayed on it's own page, I'd like to embed & display the gallery in another node.

As some of you know, I've recently taken over maintenance of Inline and Image Assist, and initiated the Wysiwyg project. That was not only caused by personal interest, but also to take the necessary steps to realize the long awaited Inline API. You might ask yourself, what those three modules have in common or to do with each other at all: They deal with user input, allow to embed complex contents into a content, and provide an interactive GUI for that. If you already had the chance to work with them, you already know that there is a rather hidden, non-obvious hard-dependency between them.

Although I'd really like to discuss both topics (Inline and Wysiwyg support) separately, the gained experience on these topics enforces us to discuss them concurrently. The following mockup hopefully explains why: (see attachment to view in full size)

I came up with a nifty, albeit jerry-rigged, hybrid Drupal solution that I wanted to share with the local community. If I can make it in April, I will be happy to share the inner-workings.
