Archive.org book page image slider selector
I’d like to choose a book available on the Internet Archive (archive.org), choose a page number, and show part of the page (from one vertical offset to another). To help with choose the offsets, the thing below might help.
URL of the book:
Book’s page number offsets (nXX = pageNumber + this):
Page number:
On the left I have 0.0 and on the right, I have 100.0.

Aside: On the “technology” used in this page—I’m basically new to CSS etc.—see https://jsfiddle.net/12zhpedw/ and the following about archive.org:
- OK to hotlink: https://archive.org/post/261115/hotlinking-allowed
- Even documented: https://archive.readme.io/docs/retrieving-book-pages
- But only works if pages have been labelled (i.e. IA knows what page “page1” is). Instead, see: https://openlibrary.org/dev/docs/bookurls
- https://archive.org/download/ChandassamputaSediyapu/page/n25_s2.jpg this works! (2x downscaling)
- https://archive.org/download/ChandassamputaSediyapu/page/n25_x280_y292_w668_h1080_s2.jpg – part of some page!
(Thanks for reading! If you have any feedback or see anything to correct, contact me or edit this page on GitHub.)
