jTag : A jQuery plugin to tag pictures & more !
49Howdy,
A little while ago I published an article on how to create a facebook like tagging system.
Even thought It worked fine it was a bit messy and kinda hard to impletement.
I then started to work on a jQuery plugin that make that feature a lot easier to integrate on your solutions.
What does it look like ?
Click on the picture to start tagging

I made more demos to explain all the options of the script.
Where do I get it ?
You can get the source code on github or git clone git://github.com/djpate/jTag.git

How to add image tagging the facebook way !

Today I want to show you how to make a image tagging function on your website.
It works about the same way than facebook does (or a least the way it worked some times ago because I deleted my facebook account)
Basicly you take an image and you “tag” people or stuff in it by marking what you want to tag with a rectangle.
This example is just a proof of concept and will give you a good idea on how to make it better for your website.
This script requires jquery and jquery-ui with draggable and resizable function(it’s included in the source).
note : I didnt have time to test it on IE so let me know if it works for you…
Here is the Demo and the Source.
