Call lightbox from a flash file with buttons?

[dynamicfalcon]

I cant see where getURL("javascript:show(1)");
calls on the images in your code.

I Im trying to use several flash buttons to call there own groups of images?

ie button1 will open group1 gallery / button 2 will open group 2 gallery

Thank you for answering Charlene !

It works perfectly but now the swf underlay dissapears totally !!!!!

What can I do to let the swf visible behind the lightbox working ???

Thank you in advance !!!

You don't want the swf working under it. It's going to create a ton of problems for you. The main one being that your lighbox won't appear on top of it.

If you still want to get rid of that functionality, you'll need to edit the lightbox js.

>> In fact, I just want the swf doesn't dissapear from the screen.

For example, this site : http://www.brainstorms.it/galleria/gallery_flash.html
The swf behind stay in place.

Concerning the lightbox.js, I'm too bad in javascript but I think it would be great to create a function like showImage() but for the swf or Element.visible (stuff.swf'); Something like that.

If you know the code, you're welcome

Thanks in advance

You could just add a screenshot of your flash file as the background of the div. That would be an easy workaround...

Why not ? good idea ! I'll try and by the way if I find a script I'll tell you.

Thx a lot

I'm having this same problem. When I trigger lightbox to open, the flash file completely disappears. Does anybody know what would cause this? If I were to guess, i'd say it's something in the object code for the flash file, but I can't seem to get anything to work. The object code I'm using to embed the flash is:

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="100%" height="100%" id="using/website" align="middle">
    <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
    <param name="movie" value="fullscreen.swf" />
    <param name="quality" value="high" />
    <param name="wmode" value="transparent">
    <param name="scale" value="noscale" />
    <param name="salign" value="lt" />
    <embed src="fullscreen.swf" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="lt" bgcolor="#535353" width="100%" wmode="transparent" height="100%" name="using/website" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
    </object>

Thanks!

This is a SETTING in lightbox.js -- because some browsers mostly on MACs have problems with layering of DHTML and FLASH... as far as I know there is NO Workaround for that problem... so you have to choose a consistent look for all browsers (flash hidden) or kind of broken look for some people on Macs with FF/Safari (flash visibible)... maybe others.
