## Description

Using this widget you can easily place the iPad containing an image of the cover
of the book you are reading in the sidebar. You can also specify a URL to link to
when clicking on the book cover image. Supports multiple instances, so you can use
it multiple times in multiple sidebars. (adapted from the Simple Image Widget)

Once the plugin is enabled, the widget will be available in your widgets list as“
iPad Widget”. You can add this widget to sidebars as many times as you need. The
control interface allows you to specify the following options for each instance 
of the widget:

 * Image URL: The full URL to the image file
 * Alternate Text: Shown by the browser if image cannot be displayed
 * Link URL: URL to open when the book cover image is clicked on (optional)
 * Open link in new window: If this is checked, the above link URL will open in 
   a new browser window

## Installation

Installation is very simple:

 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Add the “iPad Widget” plugin to a sidebar in ‘Design’ -> ‘Widgets’

## FAQ

  How do I upload an image?

The iPad Widget does not provide a mechanism for uploading images or files. You 
can however upload an image in the ‘Write’ section of WordPress. From there you 
can click on the ‘Add an Image’ icon (next to ‘Add Media’ label). After uploading
an image, copy the ‘Link URL’ for use in your iPad Widget.

  How many images can be display?

Each instance of the widget can only display one image, but you can create as many
instances as you need.

  How do I change the alignment?

This can be done with CSS. Depending on your WordPress theme, one of these methods
below will work, though you may have to experiment a little to find out which one.

For the last one with margin top, right, bottom, and left, replace the 0’s with 
a number, for example 10px, where the px stands for pixels. As you increase or decrease
a side, the Ereader will shift position enabling you to get the perfect spacing 
in you sidebar. Don’t forget that you can use negative numbers too, like -10px. 
Experiment with the numbers and refresh your website to see what way the Ereader
moves in your sidebar. Keep doing this until its just right!) :

    ```
    .ipad { text-align: center; }
    .ipad { margin:0 auto; }
    .ipad { margin:0 auto; text-align: center; }
    .ipad { margin:0 auto; text-align: left; }
    .ipad { margin-top:0px; margin-right:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; }
    ```
