FN-FORUM: Lightbox and osCommerce - success (I think)!

date posted 6th November 2007 20:46

Hi Carrie, Steve,

A small update - I (think) I have managed to get it working; I had been
trying to use one of the several add-ons that I had come across which don't
seem to work very well, or have not been updated for some time.

Eventually I managed to find this link:
http://forums.oscommerce.com/index.php?showtopic=282105&hl=Lightbox. It is
for Lightbox with Ultrapics on osCommerce; I have adapted the code from this
page (took out references to multiple images, and Ultrapics), and touch wood
it seems to be getting there. I have an issue with it taking a long time to
load pics, but that was a change I made to see if I could get a larger image
to work, rather than just show the same small one on the original page.

Thanks for volunteering your help - I will keep you posted on how I go. Oh -
and if I get a chance, I will upload the final result, once I have sorted
out another bug in my code: showing a div with a border in IE works OK, but
not in Firefox. It is correctly filled out with the items from osCommerce in
IE, but when shown in FF, it does not correctly size the div around all of
the items. Me suspects the overflow is not set correctly...

Alex.

P.S. If anyone wants to know the code for how I did it, give me a yell...
