Purpose of the mod
This TNG modification makes the media links more accessible when one media item has a long list of media links. It changes the Browse Media results table so that all of a Media Item's linked items are displayed in its "Linked to" cell (not just 10), but, if there are more than 10 links,
- The height of the cell is limited, and the cell will have a scroll bar
- The number of links is displayed at the top of the list, and
- An "Expand" button at the top of the list expands the cell height so that all of the links are visible, and expands the cell width a bit to help balance the results table.
Mod Options
none
Other Mods
- This mod saves data that can be used by the Show Mod Names utility mod, but is not dependent on that mod. I know of no dependencies on other mods.
- This mod is related to Browsemedia Search Form, which makes some of the same changes as this mod to results table columns. As a result of these duplicated changes, if you install both mods, the second mod causes "Not Installed" messages in the first mod. But uninstalling the second mod cleans up the discrepancies.those errors.
Conflicts
I have checked the TNG Wiki mods that say that they change browsemedia.php. I could not download three of them. Of the others, only one presented a conflict:
- Media display columns mod, which changes results table column sizes in six end-user programs. I don't understand why it does what it does to browsemedia, and I don't see a way to resolve the incompatibility.
If you find any other incompatibilities, please let me know.

Results Table BEFORE: For the second photo, 17 medialinks are listed (I don't know how it focused on that number) The ['More Links'] link loads the Show Media page, where the additional (not the first 17) links are listed. |
Results Table AFTER: The first several links for the second photo are shown as the page loads. You can scroll through them, or click "Expand" to list them all without scrolling. |
