Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

Hi Alex,

I resolved my initial problem... I found an additional jscript_lightbox.php in includes/modules/pages/product_info file.

Still having the IE issue though.

Thanks,

Yes, this is a bug in the lightbox code, the close button is a link to the same page. There is an onclick event for this button that overrides this behaviour, but sometimes it doesn't want to work. I've got no idea why that is, it could be that there is some conflicting code that stops the binding from occurring. Anyway, the solution to this is to change the label from being a link, to a div in the javascript. This prevents this from ever happening.

Are you referring to the IE issue? or my first issue?

Im talking about the first issue, where you click the close button and it redirects you to the home page, it happens in opera as well. I presume the script encounters an error during the close operation and then when it terminates it doesn't send false to the link, so the link activates. That is why it shouldn't be a link.

I have that issue resolved. Found I had an additional JScript in the product_info file. Removed it and now I'm all good. Just gotta get a handle on the IE issue.

Thanks

Has anyone ever found the solution to the IE problem where the browser reports "Operation Aborted" upon the first opening of the page, but the refresh brigs you to it.

The current Lightbox has no SWFObject anywhere in it, so that's not the problem.

Help? Anyone?

Hi guys.

I am having a problem with the lightbox installation. Unfortunately, my development is on a testing server and so I can't provide links to show you the issue so will have to describe as best I can.

I have installed the lightbox according to the instructions and for the most part it works. I have uploaded a large image for a product in addition to the base image. The website displays the picture of the base image along with the description and then a thumbnail underneath of the larger image. Make sense so far? When you click on the thumbnail, lightbox kicks in and displays the larger image great. When I click the base image though it still comes up as a pop-up instead of lightbox and the link for this is still "javascript: popupWindow...." instead of a link to the image as the thumbnail does.

Any ideas what could be causing this?

No worries. Sorted it now. Just worked out the PHP for it and altered it slightly.
