G'day mate,
Thanks for your reply! Gather you haven't heard of flashlightbox or flashlightbox2? It's a way of launching lightbox using buttons in Flash. You can check it out here - http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox/
Anyway, believe me when I tell you, when I add the code I usually use for disabling "click to activate" the lightbox breaks. The reason I posted here is that I don't think it's a Flash problem - it's when I add the code to the html page that there's a problem.
Here is the working page (using the technique explained in the flashlightbox download):
Code:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml " xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Simon Watson Design</title>
<style type="text/css">
@import "lightbox.css";
img { border:0; }
</style>
<script type="text/javascript" src="lightbox.js "></script>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#ffffff">
<p> </p>
<p align="center">
<!--url's used in the movie-->
<!--text used in the movie-->
<!-- saved from url=(0013)about:internet -->
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="720" height="520" id="Design" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="design-site.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /> <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /><embed src="design-site.swf" quality="high" wmode="transparent" bgcolor="#f6f6f4" width="720" height="520" name="Design" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage=" http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer " />
</object>
</p>
</body>
</html>
...and here's the broken page:
Code:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml " xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Simon Watson Design</title>
<style type="text/css">
@import "lightbox.css";
img { border:0; }
</style>
<script type="text/javascript" src="lightbox.js "></script>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#ffffff">
<p> </p>
<p align="center">
<!--url's used in the movie-->
<!--text used in the movie-->
<!-- saved from url=(0013)about:internet -->
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="720" height="520" id="Design" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="design-site.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /> <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /><embed src="design-site.swf" quality="high" wmode="transparent" bgcolor="#f6f6f4" width="720" height="520" name="Design" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage=" http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer " />
</object>
<script type="text/javascript" src="fixit.js"></script>
</p>
</body>
</html>
...and lastly, here's the js I'm using for the click to activate thing (which works fine, but breaks lightbox):
Code:
theObjects = document.getElementsByTagName("object");
for (var i = 0; i < theObjects.length; i++) {
theObjects[i].outerHTML = theObjects[i].outerHTML;
}
Sorry about the long post! Here are the pages if you want to compare them:
http://design.simonwatson.com.au/index.html
http://design.simonwatson.com.au/index2.html
As you can see, the first one has working lightbox, but you have to click to activate, whereas the second page has a broken lightbox, with NO click to activate.
Appreciate your help and patience!
