Lightbox 2 and Featured Content Slider issues

[A2597]

1) Script Title:
Featured Content Slider
Lightbox 2.03

2) Script URL (on DD):
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/featuredcontentslider.htm
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex4/lightbox2/index.htm

3) Describe problem:
I can't seem to get these scripts to work together. The featured content slider works properly, but when I click on the thumbnail it doesn't bother using the lightbox, and just redirects to the image.

The way I want this to work is when you mouseover the thumbnails it displays in the larger image viewer, and then the user can click on the thumbnail or the larger image to load the lightbox. Currently, it works fine for the larger image, but the thumbnail won't work.

Any thoughts on how I can combine these scripts?

And the code snippet I think is the culpret:



<div id="paginate-slider2" class="pagination">
<a href="images/portfolio/aga/1_lg.jpg" class="toc" rel="lightbox"><img src="images/portfolio/aga/1_sm.jpg"></a>
<a href="#" class="toc"><img src="images/portfolio_thumb_bgr.jpg"></a>
<a href="#" class="toc"><img src="images/portfolio_thumb_bgr.jpg"></a>

</div>

Try upgrading to Lightbox 2.04:

Since it doesn't require onload initialization of links, it plays better with a wide variety of other scripts than does Lightbox 2.03 and previous versions of Lightbox.

Thank you for the quick reply! I didn't even know 2.04 was out.

Unfortunately, the problem persist, the thumbnail just redirects to the image, rather than opening in the lightbox.

Any other ideas?

Thanks again!

I am loath to bump my own thread, but as of yet I still haven't figured out what is preventing this from working, and would truly appreciate any assistance you can offer. :)

:EDIT: (Soas not to bump it again)
I found a solution, for anyone that might be running a search in the future.

I resolved this by using:

Then using this modified .js file here for on mouseover:

From this JS file I learned how to replace teh glide and turn it into a fade:

line 26, comment out the animate, and replace it with opacity:


//$jtarget.animate(endpoint, config.speed)
$jtarget.css(endpoint).css({opacity:0}).animate({opacity:1}, config.speed) //custom code

Then using the jquery fix posted here:

And voila, the scripts work!
