Open-Source pyxy-gallery PHP+Ajax Photo Gallery

Pyxy-gallery is a PHP script to make an image gallery. There are many other scripts to do this, but one is different. Maybe even better.

AJAX shininess
Intelligent JavaScript lets you browse your pictures without leaving the page - saving time and bandwidth, and reducing server load. AJAX skeptics can be reassured: Pyxy uses fragment identifiers to let you bookmark and link to individual pages within the gallery.

Speaking of saving bandwidth...
Unlike some of the simplest gallery scripts, Pyxy uses the HTTP headers that browsers send to determine whether or not to re-send image thumbnails. It supports keep-alive connections to drastically reduce loading times.

lightbox.js support
If you have lightbox.js available, you can make the gallery even prettier.

Easy installation
Just drop it in and go! If your web host supports it, pyxy-gallery will automatically install the protype.js JavaScript library for you. Note: Presently lightbox.js installation cannot be performed manually. See the documentation for more information.
