Hi TJ,

Thanks for the update on the thumbnail question, much appreciated.

Hi all,

I am developing a site with this plugin, mainly using Firefox where it works fine. Also tested in opera, fine also. Now for IE6…. It seems the plugin is crashing IE. I went searching what could be wrong but could not find anything. I uninstalled, installed again with no luck. So I went to bastians site to see if there was any news on this. I looked at the demo and the plugin article. In both the plugin seems to be disabled. No indication of why it is disabled.

And here is my question(s):
Can someone please point me to a site using this plugin (latest version) and working in IE6 (for encouragment so to speak ;)
Does anyone now what could be causing this?

here is a link to the site I am working on. Look at it with IE6 (and watch it crashing, some fun for a sunday)

any help would be much apreciated. Thanks

It crashes IE6, but it’s working OK in IE7 beta 2. Hmm…

OK thanks ragger.

I’m going to uninstall the plugin now and try again.
There seems to be a version 2.02 of the lightbox script. Is that version in this plugin?

thanks jw

Now it seems to be a layout issue. I was working with a percentage based fluid layout with min max width. I know IE is not supporting that. So I used a min-max javascript designed to solve that issue. I als0 tried the css-mastery hack comming from cammeron moll. No luck what so ever.

The thing I tried just yet was pulling out the css I was using, and throwing in the default txp-css. With some name adjusting everything seems to work fine, in IE also.

@ragger It seems IE7 really solves the min max width issue, nice to know.

Ok, I love bas_lightbox, but I have a request. Would there be any way to only show one image from a group in an article list? This would allow more album-like functionality. So, if I create a category “foo” and then use my lightbox dropdown to select foo, in my article list I would only want one thumbnail (first one is OK, but choosing which one would be nice) to show. Then, when I click on the thumbnail, it would show the whole album, either lightboxed or in an individual article page with all the thumbnails which would then be lightboxed.

@ jrphelps:

You could make one thumbnail visible and hide the others by putting them in a <code>div</code> with styling <code>visibility: hidden</code>. That should work.

And how would I go about applying visibility:hidden to all but the first one? I am using categories with the Lightbox custom field.

Ah, you’re right. When using the custom field, this is not possible. I remember now that that was the reason I’m not using the custom field.

I guess you will have to wait till Bastian adds the attribute ‘offset’ to this plugin. Or else you could consider dropping the custom field and putting the images inside the body text, instead of in the article form.

First of all, I’d like to thank Bastian for this wonderful script!
It’s great and everything, but only when it works…

When I first installed it on my website (http://lken.net/werk) it would only work on Firefox and IE6; not on Opera: when you’d click on an image, it will be opened like a regular link. After installing the Dutch translation plug-in; LightBox suddenly did work on Opera and Firefox. Problem now is that it won’t work on IE; clicking on an image is handled like an ordinairy link

Now I’ve removed the Dutch translation, reinstalled Bas’ LightBox script, and it still doesn’t work on IE.

The error certainly isn’t in my Internet Explorer settings; other Textpattern websites using bas_lightbox do work.

Ofcourse, you could test it for yourselves with the this link. If someone has the solution to this strange problem it would be greatly appreciated!
