This gallery template shows up to 30 images. The big advantage over the build-in gallery tag (<gallery>...</gallery>) is that the available space will be dynamically used, depending on available screen space. Furthermore, the captions may contain template calls (which is not possible with the build-in tag).
Every image is embedded in its own HTML-table, and are floated left. The number of images per row is based upon the width specified and the width of the screen, which allows greater flexibility than the build-in <gallery> tag.
