lighbox broken in IE6 and IE7
When I use firefox (2.0.0.14) the lightbox JS popup effect seems to work fine but IE6 and 7 anf FF (2.0.0.12) it just opens a new window. any one else have this error or have solved it?

Re:lighbox broken in IE6 and IE7
Alright I just tested a site I made a few weeks ago that did work with lightbox zoom popup but is no longer working, it does them same thing, click the link and it just opens a new window to display the image in. obveosly IE is not allowing the javascript files to be included during loading.
however other scripts are working on the page such as suckerfish.js...I'm at a loss, I'd like to say that it may have been a security update from microsoft, but thats hard to test, can some one give it a try and let me know if the script loads for them.

I turned on debugging in IE and got this error when I load the page/gallery:
Line: 259
Char: 3
URL: http://www.faces-model.com/index.php?option=com_zoom&Itemid=89&catid=13
when I click the image to have the lightbox popup effect I get this error:
Line: 203
Char: 35
ERROR: 'myLightbox' is undefined
URL: http://www.faces-model.com/index.php?option=com_zoom&Itemid=89&catid=13
These errors seem to be in the lightbox.js file for the myLightbox.start, and myLightbox.end functions...I have no idea why they would not work.
I have added an onload="initLightbox()" to the body tag like the lightbox hompage says to do and still no go.

Re:lighbox broken in IE6 and IE7
Alright after much work, this is the fix
Line 258 in lightbox.js need to be commented out for IE6 and IE7 compatability
I dont know why this started but this did fix it!

- Code: Select all
// objOverlay.setStyle('border','3px solid #000000');
