Try defining the size of your gallery's parent container (in your case the table cell) to be the size that you want and leave the gallery's own dimensions at 100% x 100% so that the gallery fills the container, no matter what its size is.

Is there any way to integrate this with Juicebox?

It looks like it may be possible to implement this for a website containing a Juicebox gallery but it does not look like something that can be integrated within Juicebox itself (as it requires, amongst other things, creating HTML snapshots).
(As you are already aware, it would also require implementing a new direct linking technique as Juicebox natively uses # rather than #!.)

Once the gallery is published on the web, I will need to be able to copy and paste URL's that will function as links to specific images.

Setting enableDirectLinks="TRUE" in your gallery's XML file would allow you to link directly to individual images within a Juicebox gallery by using URLs such as: http://www.example.com/gallery#2
Please note that enableDirectLinks is a Juicebox-Pro option (which is not available in Juicebox-Lite).

Also, I want the potential to exist for search engines to find specific images based on words in its description or title.

This is not possible with Juicebox-Pro out-of-the-box but may be possible by implementing this technique (though it may be rather complex to achieve). You would first need to implement a new direct linking technique (as Juicebox natively uses # rather than #!) and you would also need to provide HTML snapshots. All of this can perhaps be achieved for a web site containing a Juicebox gallery but it cannot all be integrated within Juicebox itself.

I know that I am going to want something that is HTML5 based, not Flash. Also, considering my lack of experience designing a website, Showkase sounds like it might be the right tool for me.

Showkase would certainly allow you to create a portfolio website with no coding knowledge (please see the Showkase Site Demos here), and Juicebox is, indeed, an HTML5 (non-Flash) image viewer but using Juicebox in conjunction with Showkase would not solve your SEO wishes.

Why does uploading Juicebox automatically create an html file called exteriors.html or projects.html, etc. based on the index.html page

When creating a Juicebox gallery, you have the choice to name the Index Page Name on the Publish tab.
If you save each gallery to a different folder (which I would recommend) you can safely leave the Index Page Name as the default value of 'index.html'.
No new files are created whilst uploading your gallery. Uploading is simply a process of copying files and folders from one location( your computer) to another (your web server).
(As you are embedding your galleries in other web pages, you do not actually need any of the 'index.html' files. They are used only when you wish to view the galleries on pages of their own.)

Juicebox atomatically created an image folder for galleries 2 &3 but I took everything out of it because the interiors gallery (gallery1) didn't have that folder and it works fine.

That sounds like the reason that your galleries do not function correctly.
Just leave the gallery folders exactly as they are created by JuiceboxBuilder-Lite and upload them in their entirety.

If you upload a complete gallery folder named 'gallery2' to the root of your web space (exactly as it is created by JuiceboxBuilder-Lite) and use the following embedding code in your http://www.finecustombuilding.com/exteriors.html file, the gallery will display on the page.

<script src="http://www.finecustombuilding.com/gallery2/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>
<script>
  new juicebox({
    baseUrl : 'http://www.finecustombuilding.com/gallery2/',
    containerId : 'juicebox-container2',
    galleryWidth : '930px',
    galleryHeight : '700px',
    backgroundColor: '#222222'
  });
  </script>
<div id="juicebox-container2">

Now it is saying it can't find the Config XML file.  Where is that file placed when juicebox is uploaded to a site?

The 'config.xml' file is located inside each gallery folder (alongside the 'index.html' file and 'images', 'thumbs' and 'jbcore' folders).

Current problem with 'Exteriors' gallery:
The path to the 'juicebox.js' file is incorrect.
Change:

<script src="http://www.finecustombuilding.com/gallery2/images/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>

... to:

<script src="http://www.finecustombuilding.com/gallery2/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>

If you want to embed a gallery into a WordPress post which contains custom thumbnails which are not simply small versions of the main images, then you could:
(1) Create a Juicebox gallery with Juicebox-Lite
(2) Swap the thumbnail images in the 'thumbs' folder with your own custom thumbnails (and edit the thumbURL entries in the 'config.xml' file if necessary)
(3) Upload your complete gallery folder (not just the contents) to your web server. It does not matter where on your web server you upload the gallery folder to as long as you know where it is.
(4) Embed the gallery in your WordPress post using the baseUrl embedding code found here, making sure that the two paths within the code (the path to the 'juicebox.js' file and the baseUrl itself) are correct. Also, when entering the embedding code into your WordPress post, make sure that the method of entry is 'Text' rather than 'Visual'.

The exteriors gallery shows with the thumbnails but won't display the large images even though the larger images are in the folder.

Going to the first image in your Exteriors gallery (http://www.finecustombuilding.com/galle … erior1.jpg) directly in a browser does not display the image as expected.
Things to check:
(1) Double-check that the file actually exists in the correct location.
(2) Make sure that the file extension of the imageURL entry in your gallery's XML file matches that of the image itself. Your web server is likely to be case-sensitive and .jpg is not the same as .JPG.
(3) Check the permissions on the 'images' folder (and the images themselves) to ensure that they can be read.

The projects (gallery3) doesn't display at all.

It looks like the 'jbcore' folder is missing from your 'gallery3' directory on your web server.

i have placed the gallery folder in my dreamweaver file is this what you mean ?
or do i need to upload it to my host which is fatcow?

Whether you upload the files via Dreamweaver or a separate FTP program, you would need to ensure that the contents of the gallery folder (not the folder itself) are in the root of your web space so that, for example, your gallery's XML file (named 'config.xml') is located at www.cdstiling.co.uk/config.xml

is there a step by step guide ?

The Juicebox embedding guide can be found here.
There is also a note for Dreamweaver users here.
However, as I mentioned before, if you plan to embed multiple galleries, I would recommend using the baseUrl method of embedding as documented here.

Essentially:
(1) Upload your complete gallery folder (in this example, named 'mygallery') to the root of your web space (depending on your web server this is likely to be a folder named 'public_html' or 'htdocs').
(2) Change your current embedding code to the following:

<!--START JUICEBOX EMBED-->
<script src="http://www.cdstiling.co.uk/mygallery/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>
<script>
new juicebox({
baseUrl: "http://www.cdstiling.co.uk/mygallery/",
containerId: "juicebox-container",
galleryWidth: "100%",
galleryHeight: "600",
backgroundColor: "#222222"
});
</script>
<div id="juicebox-container"></div>
<!--END JUICEBOX EMBED-->

Try giving your navigation container a high z-index value via CSS so that it is stacked on top of the gallery.

I'm looking forward to it

Just to clarify, I do not know if the developers will implement your suggestion but you have posted your feature request in the correct place and it will not be overlooked.
Hopefully you will be able to implement one of the suggestions in my previous post to achieve the functionality you require.

1/change 'AutoPlay ON' to 'autoplay on' and its off state too
My site is all lower case andca ps stand out rather glaringly. I would also prefer to change font size if that is possible

2/To change the pop up button notes similarly  - i.e. 'Show Thumbnails'  to 'show thumbnails'

It is not possible to change the onscreen tooltip text and messages or their font sizes.
However, the ability to change the text (though not the font size) is on the roadmap and should be included in a future version of Juicebox-Pro (although I do not know exactly when this may be).

3/ I did not set out to use captions and titles on my images and have thus not familiarized myself with the entire workings but so far I have not found how to achieve the following:

By default all titles and captions are not seen but when one clicks the info button one has the chance to read either or both of them.

Can this be done ?

Yes. Set captionPosition="OVERLAY" or captionPosition="OVERLAY_IMAGE" ('Caption' section of JuiceboxBuilder-Pro), showImageOverlay="NEVER" ('Main Image' section) and showInfoButton="TRUE" ('Button Bar' section). The captions will be initially hidden but displayed when the user clicks on the Info Button on the Button Bar.

Thank you for providing the URL to your web site.
As you are embedding only one gallery per web page, there is no need to name your container ids differently (although it will do no harm) as there will be only one gallery container per page and there will be no conflict with any others.

Currently, the problem with your 'Interiors' gallery is that your http://www.finecustombuilding.com/interiors.html page contains the line:

<script src="http://www.finecustombuilding.com/gallery1/jbcore/juicebox.js"></script>

... but the 'juicebox.js' file does not seem to have been uploaded to that location.

I would start by embedding the galleries first and only then, once everything is working as required, would I recommend having your galleries share a 'jbcore' folder.

Essentially, just follow the baseUrl embedding instructions here for one gallery and, once you have got one working, move onto the next.

Upload a complete gallery folder, named 'gallery1' to the root of your web space and that gallery should be displayed on your 'Interiors' page (as the embedding code itself on the http://www.finecustombuilding.com/interiors.html page looks OK).

From the documentation of jQuery I have seen, the use of jQuery requires the invocation of an external file called jquery.js. Yet that does not appear in the source code here.

jQuery is incorporated within the 'juicebox.js' file.

Can somebody please give me a step-by-step to doing this from the ground up?

Try this:
(1) Paste the code below into a file named, for example, 'main.html'.
(2) Include a complete gallery folder (in this example, named 'mygallery') in the same directory as the 'main.html' file.

        <div id="juicebox-container"></div>
    </div>
    <div id="footer">This is the footer.</div>
</body>
</html>

All you would then need to do is:
(1) Set the height for the header and/or footer in the CSS section of the 'main.html' page as appropriate for your own code.
(2) Swap the content of the 'header' and/or 'footer' <div>s with your own code.
(3) Make sure that the two instances of 'mygallery' in the 'main.html' file match the actual name of your own gallery folder.

This 'splash' screen appears that requires the user to click "View Gallery". (I prefer the user go straight to see the first image with thumbnails instead of this interstitial page.)

With Juicebox-Pro (though not with Juicebox-Lite), you would be able to set showSplashPage="NEVER" to skip the Splash Page and initially display the first image in the gallery. Alternatively, you could also set screenMode="LARGE" to force Juicebox-Pro to use Large Screen Mode on all devices and in all browsers. For more information on Screen Modes, please see here.

But the juicebox code is still trying to reference config.xml

I have viewed your gallery on my iPod Touch and your gallery displays OK. I do not see the 'Config XML not found.' error message.
Try clearing your browser's cache before reloading the gallery to make sure that your browser does is not hanging onto and using older versions of your gallery files.

Where might I find this xml file? I've only seen "default.xml" so far, and I have a Juicebox gallery set up.

By default, a Juicebox gallery's XML file will be named 'config.xml' and will be inside the gallery folder alongside the 'jbcore' folder.
However, if using WP-Juicebox, the gallery's XML file is generated dynamically using PHP at the time the gallery is displayed so it cannot easily be modified manually.

YES. This is exactly what I want. Can I accomplish this while using Wordpress, like with a 12-column layout or something?

This sample gallery uses Juicebox-Pro configuration options so you would need to first upgrade WP-Juicebox from Juicebox-Lite (which it comes bundled with) to Juicebox-Pro by following the instructions here. You would then need to enter the following configuration options into the 'Pro Options' text area:

thumbsPosition="LEFT",
maxThumbColumns="3"
maxThumbRows="3"

Thank you for posting your suggestion in the Feature Requests thread.

Will it be possible to add "AUTOPLAY", or there is a mode to trigger it writing in the code? If so where?

As well as the AutoPlay button on the Button Bar (which can be displayed by setting showAutoPlayButton="TRUE" in your gallery's XML file), you can also toggle the AutoPlay status on and off programmatically using the toggleAutoPlay() Juicebox-Pro API method.

1.  Once the watermark is applied and the image gallery Published/Saved, is there any way of removing ot applying a new watermarks to the images in a gallery?

One a watermark has been added to an image, it becomes part of that image and cannot be removed.
If you wanted to 'remove' a watermark from an image, you would need to remove the watermarked image from your gallery and re-add your original image without adding a watermark.

2.   When a new image is added to a gallery, the watermark should be automatically applied.   This does not always happen.  Any ideas?

I am unable to replicate this issue. Can you run me through a series of steps that will reproduce this bug so that I can try to see it for myself? Thank you.

3.  Does the watermark file get stored between closings of the program?

No.

4.  Does the program save the info that a watermark has been applied to an image so that it does not try and add it the second time?

No. When adding a watermark, all images will be watermarked.

WP-Juicebox will display all images attached to a page or post, so if your page or post has a featured image, this will also be included in the Juicebox gallery. Therefore, I would recommend selecting an image which is already included in the gallery as the featured image.
However, if you would like to exclude a featured image from your WP-Juicebox gallery, open the 'wp-juicebox/config.php' file in a plain text editor and change line 52 from:

$attachments = get_children(array('post_parent'=>$post_id, 'post_type'=>'attachment', 'orderby'=>'menu_order ASC, ID', 'order'=>'DESC'));

... to:

$attachments = get_children(array('post_parent'=>$post_id, 'post_type'=>'attachment', 'orderby'=>'menu_order ASC, ID', 'order'=>'DESC',  'exclude'=>get_post_thumbnail_id($post_id)));

(The line number above refers to WP-Juicebox v1.2.0.)

Please take a look at this forum thread for a Juicebox adaptaption of the SEO Script I linked to in my previous post above.

With regard to your latest query, you could set enableDirectLinks="TRUE" in your gallery's XML file (which will give each image a unique URL using the '#' character) and you could then use the onImageChange() Juicebox API event to add SEO code to a container (which would be hidden via CSS) using JavaScript. However, I do not know how Google would treat this. There would essentially be only one page and Google would not know how many dynamic versions of the page could be created by appending image numbers to the URL.

As you are using percentages for both the width and height of your gallery, make sure that all parent containers of your gallery have widths and heights specified via CSS.
Otherwise, try changing your gallery's dimensions from percentages to absolute pixel values.

Also, you could check your web page's code with the W3C Markup Validation Service and fix the HTML errors reported. This may also help.

Your web page also loads two different (and old) versions of jQuery.
Try including only a single instance of the most recent version of jQuery (v1.9.0) to see is this makes a difference.

@ZabParis

If you were to load the gallery into an iframe, display the page containing the iframe in a browser and view the source of the iframe, then the SEO code will be displayed.
However, if you would like the SEO code to be inserted into the page which contains the iframe, then you would need to create a container on the page with the iframe, such as:

<div id="seo"><?php include("juicebox-seo.php"); ?></div>

... and hide it with CSS such as:

<style type="text/css">
    #seo {
        display: none;
    }
</style>

Thank you for providing the URL to your web site.
Your gallery's embedding code has been inserted ito your web page OK but your gallery files have not been uploaded to the correct location on your web server.
For your gallery to function correctly, you would need to copy the contents of your gallery folder into the same directory as the HTML page which contains your gallery's embedding code (in your case, this is the root of your web space).

If you plan to embed multiple galleries, I would recommend using the baseUrl method of embedding as documented here.
This would allow you keep each gallery as a self-contained entity in its own folder and upload the complete gallery folders (not just the contents) to anywhere on your web server (as long as you know where they are).

If you would like your gallery's height to be 600px, then, rather than using:

#juicebox-container {
    width: 100%;
    height: 600px;
}

<script>
    new juicebox({
    containerId : 'juicebox-container',
    galleryWidth: '100%',
    galleryHeight: '100%',
    backgroundColor: '#222222'
    });
</script>
<div id="juicebox-container"></div>

... just set the gallery's height in the embedding code:

<script>
    new juicebox({
    containerId : 'juicebox-container',
    galleryWidth: '100%',
    galleryHeight: '600',
    backgroundColor: '#222222'
    });
</script>
<div id="juicebox-container"></div>

Also, if you would like to have a header on your web page and then have your Juicebox-Pro gallery fill the remainder of the user's browser window (with no vertical scroll bars), please see the Using a Resizable Gallery with a Header example in the Juicebox Embedding Guide.

First of all, please make sure that you are using the current version of Juicebox-Pro (v1.2.0).
Instructions for Upgrading Juicebox can be found here.

Ordinarily, the caption text should be vertically centered in the caption area so make sure that your web page contains no generalized CSS rules which the gallery elements may inherit. Apply CSS rules to only those elements on your web page which require them through use of ids and classes.

Adding a couple of line breaks (<br><br>) to the end of your caption text may also help push it up the caption area.
