Zen Lightbox addon [Support Thread]

[zforrest]

It works now. I didn't realize that my FTP program didn't upload the main lightbox.js file. I knew it was simple.

Hi,

Just wondering, are anyone having trouble with Lightbox when browsing via Opera 9.1? I thought i might give it a test, and it turns out that when you first click on the image, the lightbox would work, but when you click next, or when you exit, and click on another image, the lightbox would just stop at loading...

I'd like to know what's everyone's view on this? is this only something i am suffering from?

Cheers.

kelvyn,
I don't know why you say the IH screws it up I have 2 carts running with IH and Lightbox and have had none of the issues others in this thread have had. I just made sure that IH was installed first and Lighbox right after that, did some file compares and everything was running smoothly in about 20 minutes. I wish I could assist others with there problems but since I haven't had any of the problems I don't have any experience in repairing them. In most cases I feel if people just slowed down a bit before loading a mod and read the read me file and read the forum threads first they would have less problems. Oh and study the files in a mod a bit first to see which ones you might need to run winmerge against might help.

Yes IH2 and Zen Lightbox work together for me also on Zen Cart 1.37.

I do have an issue with Firefox on one PC not finishing loading the large product image with "Lightbox" (I just observe a white rectangle with black background...no product image). But same issue does not occur in Firefox on another PC so I suppose this is a local Firefox config issue, related to finishing processing scripts. Probably something I need to adjust via Firefox about:config. Any ideas?

Regarding IH2 itself I do have issues with the zoom and hover not working on ZC 1.37. (but watermarks do work fine). I had all these IH2 features working on previous Zen Cart versions. Possibly a configuration issue on my part or PHP version issue. I note since move from server with PHP4 to server with PHP5 some issues with various mods have presented themselves. Appear to be related to GD. Better if I follow-up more on this in the IH2 thread. http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35913

I agree 100%. I had no issues either and was quite pleased with how smoothly the install went when I read the *$)@# manual :) (along with the forum)

How is the manual? I'm thinking of getting myself a copy soon! :)

Does it cover IH2 and/or Zen Lightbox?

I think the "manual" reference in this case were the "docs" at http://breakmyzencart.com/image-handler

Tim sure put in lots of work into his support site before abandoning it. It's been about a year or so. Maybe he will eventually return/come back to his senses ... and put Zen cart first, family second!

Makes sense.

What ever happened to Tim anyway?

Actually, I just meant your readme Alex. its been awhile since I installed it... but it went through smooth from beginning to end with no issues at all.

I think I found a small bug of some sort or maybe your aware of it already? I am getting a javascript error using IE7 while browsing certin products.

Error expected "j"

I have tracked it down to:

<!-- begin lightbox v1.1 aclarke 2006-09-06 -->
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"><!--
document.write('<a href="images/large/dvd/theres_something_about_mary_LRG.gif" rel="lightbox[gallery]" title="There's Something About Mary Linked"><img src="images/medium/dvd/theres_something_about_mary_MED.gif" alt="There\'s Something About Mary Linked" title=" There\'s Something About Mary Linked " width="150" height="120" /><br /><span class="imgLink">larger image</span></a>');
//--></script>

It seems like the ' in There's Something About Mary, causes an error. If I take the ' out of the title the error goes away.

Thanks in advanced
