Most of the bugs/requests have been addressed in this release. However, if you feel that something is missing or would like to request a feature please post here.

Seems to be working beautifully on my site so far Thanks so much, it's fantastic!

Hmmm except the whole lightbox is still aligned to the left in IE. Works great in FF though. In IE, the black background behind the image doesn't cover the whole screen, only about 3/4 of it. There is a big strip on the right side where it doesn't cover.

Looks fine for me in IE7.

You have a gap at the very bottom of the page where the 'overlay' stops (IE only) and you godaddy seal appears above the 'overlay' (IE and Firefox). Wrap a <div class="flash"> tag around the seal to hide it during lightbox display.

Thanks, you solved a problem I didn't even know I had

I am using IE6 and the strip on the side is still there. I am going to upgrade to IE7, but still, I would like it to work for everyone who doesn't upgrade to IE7 right away! I just can't figure out what the problem could be

Ok so I'm having this issue too where my go daddy seal shows on top. such as this http://www.kirwindesigns.com/store/i...products_id=40 I see in his post to wrap a div tag but which file?

I'm using zen cart 1.3.7 and the newest version of lightbox as of march 20, 2007

Thanks,

since Alex is AWOL at the moment, I wonder if you could answer a few questions for me. You seem to have a good handle on this mod.........

1. I have IH2 installed. I'm using Zen 1.3.7. All working nicely. If I install lightbox, will the fancy hover stop working? As of now, it hovers on small and shows medium. I don't want to lose this feature of IH2. It seems a lot of the sites I looked at that have lightbox and IH2, that the fancy hover doesn't work. I don't know if the webmasters did this or if it is a result of using the two mods together.

2. Interesting, but it looks like when using lightbox and when you click to enlarge and the large pic comes up in lightbox, and you right click on the pic, there is no "view" or "save" this picture. This would seem to be a nice way to keep the casual surfer from copying your pics. I know they can "view source", but for the casual surfer, it seems a detriment. This was observed using FF. I should go back an look using IE and see what happens, if it's the same.

3. Since Alex hasn't responded to your last question about an interim zip, am wondering if I decide to use lightbox, if I can get that zip file from you with "fixes" in it?

many thanks for your time..........

I'm awaiting for feedback from Alex. I truly don't want to step on anyone's toes here. Especially if Alex is truly on the cusp of releasing.

Also boylan, barco57, s_mack and samad has suggested many helpful tips, fixes and ideas throughout this thread. If Alex decides he no longer has the time (and/or the passion) to put out a version with updates, maybe these guys can pull together and do it?

And we all can provide Q&A testing support ;-)
