I’m totally not a programmer and I’d love to get this to work. My test thus far only opens the window with the loading animation. No image loads and closing window only removes transparent background. the window remains. Is there a simple trouble shooting solution? Does the Javascript go into the head or the body?

Hi!

What i need to do to launch MultiBox from Flash (AS3) using ExternalInterface.call()?

What the syntax of call() would be?
What i need to include into html file?

Hello!

Help! Cannot find the error. Offline is all fine but on the server only the black frame with the the buttons pops up. But no picture, no action is being recognized and only refreshing the page can set the page back (the box cannot be closed).

What did I wrong?

Thank you for this plugin. However it’s not working under IE7/8.
Below the details of the error :

I figured out the conflict I was having. “Assets.js” was not Capped in the code provided, and the java is case-sensitive, so I was getting a an empty box and the loading animation until I corrected the code.

I’ve corrected the problem under IE7/8. You have to remove the “px” from the line 490 in multibox.js ; like this :

this.contentContainer = new Element(‘div’).setProperties({id: ‘MultiBoxContentContainer’}).setStyles({opacity: 0, width: this.contentObj.width, height: (Number(this.contentObj.height)+this.contentObj.xH)}).injectInside(this.box);

Hi,
First of all, congratulations on the great work and very useful scripts!
One question, is there any way to have the option in MultiBox flv player to open a flash video in full screen?

Thanks.

Before I ask my questions I’d like to thank you for a really impressive plugin.

Questions 1. When I load content through AJAX, multiBox doesn’t show a vertical scroll bar. Is this a bug or a missing feature?

Questions 2. Loading content (a page) through AJAX if the url contains an anchor multiBox doesn’t scroll to the correct spot in the content. Is this a bug or a missing feature?

Hi there,
have problem with version 1.3.1. Works fine in demo but not on my side (picture goes up, but no navigation is shown and no overlay).
Firefox said: this.contentToLoad.desc.injectInside is not a function in multibox.js line 467

Please help.

thanx very much
w/best regards
Michael

I cannot get version 1.3.2 to work on the website I am developing. At all. This is very disheartening, as I have been using the previous version on another website with great success, and I was very much looking forward to a version that ran with the new mootools.

I uploaded all the appropriate files and added all the necessary code verbatim. I am completely flummoxed by this problem.

it works while i was developing the site on XAMPP environment but when i uploaded on the server, all the things work except that the photos doesnt load.. the loading gif image is kept displayin instead… kindly help.

Hi,

I’m getting conflicts with Jquery. Narrowed it down to the Jquery framework itself.

Already had to dismiss jquery lightbox techniques because of conflicts with another script, and now this

Do you know of any solution? As far as I know there shouldn’t be any conflicts with running 2 different frameworks.

Thanks.

Hey,

All you need to do is to take a look into the page source and see how each example is constructed.

Generally speaking (no matter what you want to view via MB) multibox links have to be given class=”mb” + an unique id..

(so, for example, it’s <a href=”image_folder/big_image.jpg” title=”some title” rel=”nofollow”> ..and here goes a thumbnail image or text </a>)

..and there needs to be a some description preferably at the end of body (where id matches a particular element id=”" viewed in multibox, like ‘image1′ from the example above) containing each element description (html supported). You HAVE TO make mbdesc divs for each element even if you don’t use descriptions (then leave those divs empty within), otherwise title bar and arrows won’t display.

The example above regards images only. Other elements may require declaring their type in links rel= attribute or something, so once again – check and analyze this page source for each kind of element.

Hope you get it.

BTW. Phatfusion – finally! I’ve been dying to see this one. I’ve had to use some not-so-clean 1.2 port for last 2 years!

hey,

it is possible to set allowtransparency=”true” on the iframe?

Hi everybody!

Thank you Ryan. Later after my contribution I read that you had the same problem. And you solved it. This was also my mistake, that I stored “assests.js” without leading capital letter…
Now it is runnig perfect. For me Multibox is one of the most amazing slideshows and have to thank the programmer very much! But nothing could perfect anough that it could not be improved… I searched very intensiv (also regarding other slideshows) about the possibility to build in an additional image with which downloads of the shown picture can be done – without success so far. Any advise?

Chris

Is it possible to make a multibox appear on top of a Youtube video (Object) or do I have to hide the objects when the Multibox appears?

Btw…this is by far the easiest “lightbox” I have seen with most options but a small file size. Great combi!

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could help me, I am having trouble getting the multibox to open up at 100% width and height depending on what size the users browser is, but im getting some funny/weird loading box’s showing up (like its re-sizing) three times. Need help. (I dont really want all that tween’s and resizing going on)

I have done a bit of fiddling with the multibox.js but i don’t think i have been doing it right. lol

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers.

Nice Job !

I wanted to be fair and post an update to my previous comment. By removing the line “var overlay = new overlay();” and placing “overlay: new overlay()” in the option box, the script works perfectly. I am using it extensively on two websites so far. Thank you for all your hard work on this.

I cant seem to get this working following your directions. Any chance of a better setup guide?

Hi all.

I discovered small problem with flash video in MultiBox.
Flash video will not start playing while it is not fully downloaded to the client machine. So, the progressive video is not working in MultiBox. I’m trying to edit the script so it would allow playing flash videos immediately as they are opened, but without success.
Anybody? Any ideas how this could be done?
Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Hi
This is a wonderful tool and it works quite well except the MP3 part.
It shows videos, even txt files, but it won´t load any of my MP3 files.
I used the example file and put in the a href the location of my MP3 and nothing happens.
What am I doing wrong?

Les

What are the chances you could implement groups the way that the original lightbox does (ex. )?

I have a lot of different image groupings on my page and its getting a bit code-heavy to make a different multibox class for each group of images so that they dont all group together.

Hello everybody, thanks for all the beautiful work around multibox!

I have only one question, how can I group images that are in the same page? I was using the rel= attribute but with no success at all.
For example, I have only one thumbnail that displays a larger image when I click on it, and a subsequent set of images related to that thumbnail.
The case is that when I open that particular thumbnail, the multibox shows the total quantity of images in the page.

I really appreciate your help, thanks a lot!
