We are using it in an edit app on the admin side of the digital libraries @ UNT.

On an expanded note.  Does anyone have some success they can share in regards to serving materials through bookreader where the contained pages of a single item have variable widths and/or heights? Building off the demo assumes a fixed width/height ratio, which in our experience is not always the case (consider the book with the occasional map foldout).

In our case we do not know an image's dimensions until it has loaded so we can't construct an array on the server side to lookup against, and doing so on page load would charge us a significant penalty for large items (books with 1000s of pages). My current hack has "auto" filled to the width, which breaks centering and thumbs, but renders the odd page as legible.

So any thoughts/ideas? Thanks in advance!

Will
