Help creating a lightbox please

Hi everyone
I've just launched my first portfolio site and I really need some help creating a lightbox to show my work.
This is the page i need help with
www.marieparkinson.co.uk/portfolio.html
I think I'm struggling with online tutorials as I've already designed the layout of my work (and maybe i've not used the best coding either??)
What i want to happen is the user clicks on the thumbnail image and in a pop-up screen another full size image is displayed.
I've read all the tutorials etc and downloads for it, but i just don't know where to start.
I've read a lot about JQuery, is this something I need to download??
Please help!
Any comments will be really appreciated!!
Thanks!

Primer for using jQuery Plug-ins:
#1 Download the Plug-in files from the source site.  I'm using Fancybox in this example:
#2 Extract Zip files with WinZip or StuffIt and save to your local site folder.  I prefer to keep scripts in my Scripts folder CSS files in my Styles folder but that's up to you.
#3 jQuery has 3 basic parts to it:
    the core code library which you ref in your <head>
    the plug-in scripts & CSS files which you ref in your <head>
    the function code inside <script> tags to invoke the plug-in. I prefer to put this above closing </body> tag but again that's up to you.
EXAMPLE:
<head>
<!--Link to latest jQuery core library from the CDN-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js">
</script>
<!-- links to  plug-in files in your local site-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="Scripts/fancybox/jquery.mousewheel-3.0.4.pack.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="Scripts/fancybox/jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.pack.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Styles/fancybox/jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.css" media="screen" />
</head>
<body>
<!--BEGIN IMAGE GALLERY -->
<div id="thumbs" class="fancybox">
<a rel="group" href="Images/big-image1.jpg" title="optional captions and description"><img src="Images/small-image1.jpg" alt="image 1" width="75" height="75" /></a>
<a rel="group" href="Images/big-image2.jpg" title="optional captions and description"><img src="Images/small-image2.jpg" alt="image 2" width="75" height="75" /></a>
<a rel="group" href="Images/big-image3.jpg" title="optional captions and description"><img src="Images/small-image3.jpg" alt="image 3" width="75" height="75" /></a>
</div>
<!--Fancybox function-->
<script type="text/javascript">
/* Apply fancybox slideshow to 'group'*/
$("a.group").fancybox({
'transitionIn'     :     'elastic',
'transitionOut'     :     'elastic',
'speedIn'          :     600,
'speedOut'          :     200,
'overlayShow'     :     false
</script>
</body>
That's all there is to it.

  • I need to create Buttons dynamically Please Help

    I am currently developing a card game. I represent my cards as buttons. But as the player draws more cards from the deck I have to generate buttons dynamically at run-time. I could use arrays of buttons and store new buttons inside that arrays of buttons. But the only problem is I need ActionListener for each of my buttons. How do you create ActionListener for each different dynamically created buttons? Please Help.

  • How to create a Lightbox in Edge Animate with Preloader

    Hi guys, please am new in a lot of stuff in edge animate but I need some help. I want to create a lightbox containing image slider (loading from an external image folder) but I want the images to be preloaded first then edge displays the slider for a smooth experience. Or is it that Edge preloads all assets before playing the website if of course I use the inbuilt preloader built within edge. I often assume that the preloader built into edge might not include the image slider i intend to load externally.(Please correct me if am wrong). Still struggling with a Edge. Assistance with a small sample file will help. I learn fast that way. Thanks

  • Service desk error creating support message "help- create support message"

    Hi
    I'm customizing SM 7.0 SP Stack 15 service desk scenario. I'm in a VAR SAP, so It's a mandatory scenario.
    I've done all basic settings from General Settings, Connection to SAP, Online Documentation, ...,
    Business Partners, iBase, Basic BC-Sets for Configuration, Number Ranges. After them , for Scenario-Specific Settings-> Service Desk->Service Provider I've done all these steps. At SAP System Solution Manager, I've created solutions at dswp transaction and EW Alert are centralized these steps works. Transaction notif_create works and iBase are well mantained.
    The problem is when I try create a support message from satellite SAP system. I logged With a SAP user which is BP, key user and has authorizations in a satellite system and I choose help->create support message, so a pop-up appears and I fill the fields, and I press button (Save/Send). An error appears:
    Error in Local Message System: Access via 'NULL' object reference not possible. Message was Not Created
    In order solve the error I review:
    - The satellite SAP system is at the iBase installed components.
    - I've Assign Number Range for ABA notifications at SLF1 transaction.
    - I've Checked number range for Service Desk Message at SLFN transaction.
    - I've configured ABA Message transaction DNO_CUST01, transaction DNO_CUST04
    - (satellite system) Transaction sm30, table BCOS_CUST:
       Appl.            +       Dest.                                  +                     +
       OSS_MSG   W     SM_SMGCLNT010_BACK    CUST620          1.0
       TST_CUS                                                        0120009939
       RFC SM_SMGCLNT010_BACK works, SM recollects EW Alert from this satellite system
    - (satellite system) I logged with a SAP user with these roles:
      SAP_SUPPDESK_CREATE
      SAP_BC_CUS_CUSTOMIZER  according SAP NOTE 834534
      SAP_BC_CUS_ADMIN       according SAP NOTE 834534
      SAP_SV_FDB_NOTIF_BC_CREATE
      SAP_SV_FDB_NOTIF_BC_ADMIN
      All these roles are mantained.
    - I've review SAP Notes 834534, 864195, 621927(I haven't applied this SAP Note because it's older)
    Please could you help me?
    Thanks and Regards

    Hi,
    When I try create a SAP message via help->create suuport message, I get the same error so I run help->create support message in a satellite system so I run help->create support message in Solution Manager
    system. Also, a dump is generated in Solution Manager when I try create support message or from satellite or from solution manager.

    Short text
        Access via 'NULL' object reference not possible.
    What happened?
        Error in the ABAP Application Program
        The current ABAP program "CL_BOR_SERVICE_PPF============CP" had to be
         terminated because it has
        come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
    Error analysis
        You attempted to use a 'NULL' object reference (points to 'nothing')
        access a component (variable: " ").
        An object reference must point to an object (an instance of a class)
        before it can be used to access components.
        Either the reference was never set or it was set to 'NULL' using the
        CLEAR statement.
    How to correct the error
        If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
        find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
        If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
        keywords:
        "OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED" " "
        "CL_BOR_SERVICE_PPF============CP" or "CL_BOR_SERVICE_PPF============CM004"
        "PROFILE_CONTAINS_PARTNERDEP"
        If you cannot solve the problem yourself and want to send an error
        notification to SAP, include the following information:
    Information on where terminated
        Termination occurred in the ABAP program "CL_BOR_SERVICE_PPF============CP" -
         in "PROFILE_CONTAINS_PARTNERDEP".
        The main program was "SAPMSSY1 ".
        In the source code you have the termination point in line 41
        of the (Include) program "CL_BOR_SERVICE_PPF============CM004".

  • Sold-To Party and Reported missing when doing Help - Create Support Message

    Sorry, I know this has been asked multiple times, but I'm missing something in the responses.  The responses I am finding either don't seem to apply to my situation, or aren't detailed enough to explain what I'm supposed to be doing.
    Solution Manager 7.0 EhP1 SAPKITL435.
    If we try to do a "Help - Create Support Message" from within our production Solution Manager system, the "Reported by" field is correct, but the Sold-To Party is blank.
    If we try to do a "Help - Create Support Message" from within our non-production Solution Manager system, both the "Reported by" and  Sold-To Party fields are blank.
    If we try to do a Help - Create Support Message" from another SAP system whose RFC is pointing to our non-production Solution Manager system, both the "Reported by" and  Sold-To Party fields are blank.
    I've looked at IB52, as well as the SPRO activities under "Partner Determination Procedure."  I think a big part of my problem is that they just don'e make sense to me yet, because I can't figure out what I should be changing.
    For example, IB52 looks to me like it only applies if you want to assign something to the same person all the time.  Am I missing something there, or is that an answer to a different question?
    I also can't figure out if I need to create something new in "Define Access Sequences," or modify something existing, and, if I modify, to what?
    Does anyone know where I could find specific instructions for setting this up?

    Hi Brenda,
    Regargind this issue, please check if Sold-To party is maintained for
    your system with IB52 in your solman system as the steps below:
    SOLUTION MANAGER system
    ->IB52
    ->select the system on left hand side
    ->click on 'goto' on top menu
    ->Select 'partner'
    ->Now maintain Sold-To party
    Also check below note:
    1165357    Sold-to-Party is not assigned to Service Desk messa
    As you said ou already assigned then i would request you to please check if you have assigned at the system level or not. Somtimes people define at top of the tree and also at system level. Please assign at system level and delete all other. Most of the times this is the issue Sold-to-party doesnt fill automatically.
    For reported by field:
    Please check the note: 824640: Customizing missing for Service Desk in Solution
    read this note carefull and this will help you fixing the reported by issue.
    Please, make sure you have applied the following corrections:
    1439191 Incident Create: Message Reporter or Processor is not saved
    1486132 Incident Create: Enhance search help of Reporter field
    1497700 Work center: Message details not updated after refresh
    After this if you still having issue you need to provide more details but i think this will fix the issue.
    Thanks

  • In Need of Help Creating an Action

    Hello,
    I need to create several thousand QR codes and I am trying to work out how to automate it so that I don't have to make them one at a time.
    My idea was to download the EVEnX QR Code plugin for Photoshop and then make an action, or series of actions, to make the codes en mass. The information I need in each QR Code is a URL, with each code having a unique one that links to the products serial number.
    So, I created a file roughly the size of the QR codes I needed and used vairables to insert the URL on text layer. I was hoping to be able to create an action that would copy that text, open the plugin (which works like a filter), paste the text, create the code and save/close the image.
    However, I can't seem to get it to work. I don't know how to make an action to have it highlight the text layer or an action to paste it into the plugin.
    Also, the plugin allows you to make a variable of certain information it pulls from the file but the closest I can get to what I need is file name, however I can't make the files named for the URL because of the slashes. They allows you to use file name, file path and the information like size and date.
    Sorry for the long post but I HAVE to get this figured out as this project is for work and I am on a time limit. I don't have to use an action, any other way would be fine! I don't have much experience with scripts but if you can walk me through one that would work then I would be happy to try! PLEASE HELP!!!
    Thanks!

  • Help Creating Types

    Hello,
    Hopefully I can explain this clearly.
    I am using data pump import to bring several source databases into different schemas in one new database. The source databases are extracts at different times from a seperate production database and I am encountering errors as follows -
    ORA-39083: Object type TYPE failed to create with error:
    ORA-02304: invalid object identifier literal
    Failing sql is:
    CREATE TYPE "F10BANINST1"."DATE_NT" OID 'DEEC3F961E7C4CB1E0340003BA29B58F' as
    table of DATE;
    This makes sense as the types existed under one schema in the original database and the OIDs are present as they were imported into the first schema I created. What I need to do is create these types in each of the schemas I have created in the new database. I am not sure how best to do this. Apparently I am not able to do something like the following -
    SQL> copy type schema2.TYPE from schema1.TYPE;
    What I would like to do is pull the DDL from the source database into a create statement of the form -
    SQL> create type schema2.type as.....
    and I am not sure how to do this. I need to be certain I get the type body as well. Can someone help me do this please.
    Thank you.
    Bill Wagman

    The OID of the object/collection type must be unique across all schemas. So trying to re-create the type in multiple schemas with the same OID will not work. You will need to choose a new OID for each schema's version of the type.
    However, the obvious question is: why not create a single instance of the type, and grant privileges (EXECUTE and UNDER) to use/extend it to the other schemas?

  • Uber Noob Needs Help Creating website!

    I need help creating my webpage: It has a textbox on it were
    the user enters a URL and it then redirects the end user to that
    URL when they press the GO Button. It also has a check box saying
    "Hide my IP", If the end user clicks this box and then clicks go
    they will be directed to the website they stateted in the Textbox
    but this time it shall mask there IP Address so they can bypass
    proxys and surf anonomosly. Please can someone give me some HTML
    code i could use for this site or a Link to a website that can give
    me the code.

    I assume the application is connecting to Oracle using an application ID/password. If so, check to see if that user has a private synonyn to the table. If so drop it since you have a public synonym.
    Verify that the public synonym is in fact correct. Drop and recreate the public synonym if you cannot select against the synonym name using an ID that can perform select * from inhouse.icltm where rownum = 1. That is if this other user cannot issue select * from icltm where rownum = 1 without an error.
    Check that the application ID has the necessary object privileges on the table.
    Queries you need
    select * from dba_synonyms
    where table_owner = 'INHOUSE'
    and table_name = 'ICLTM'
    You may find both public and private synonms. Either fix or delete. (Some may reference someelses.icltm table if one exists)
    select * from dba_tab_privs
    where table_name = 'ICLTM'
    and owner = 'INHOUSE'
    Note - it is possible to create mixed case or lower case object names in Oracle by using double quotes around the name. Do not do this, but do look to see that this was not done.
    You could also query dba_objects for all object types that have the object_name = 'ICLTM'

  • Help Creating A Link

    Ok I need help creating links with my banner. It's a take off
    of Macromedia's tutorial banner for the Coffee Shop.
    What it is, is a banner. You have the "Front page" of the
    banner. And it has a next button. The User clicks the next button
    and it displays the next "page" of the banner. I WANT the user to
    then click THAT page (or somewhere) on that "page" to be directed
    to a whole new page IN the current browser window. Can ANYONE
    please tell me how to change the script below so it will do that?
    /* 0 */
    var image0title:String = "Click Next To View:";
    var image0desc:String = "Photos, Videos, Forums,
    Screen-Shots, Stories And Much, Much More";
    var image0uri:String = "images/Ban1.jpg";
    /* 1 */
    var image1title:String = "Video Section";
    var image1desc:String = "Click Here to view a multitude of
    videos we've made ourselves.";
    var image1uri:String = "images/Ban2.jpg";
    The image1title:String is my title text on my banner.
    The image1desc:String is the description text on my banner.
    The images/ban2.jpg is my background image on my banner.
    I don't care of some of that TEXT is the link....or what I
    really want is the background img to be the link. Either works for
    me can anyone please fix this? I've only spent 2 hours on
    ActionScripting and trying to learn. I couldn't figure out how to
    do it through the tutorials. Thanks. IM or email me!

    To accomplish this I would build the link as part of the value. So if Yes the Yes itself would be a link, if No is simply text as today.
    It would look something like this:
    SELECT
          ,CASE WHEN ft.feature_id IN (SELECT cc.feature_id
                                       FROM customer_commitments cc
                                       WHERE ft.feature_id = cc.feature_id
           THEN
            '<a href="f?p=&APP_ID.:NEW_PAGE:&SESSION.::::Pn_FEATURE_ID:' || ft.feature_id || '">Yes</a>'
           ELSE
            'No'
           END "Commitment Exists"
              ,ft.feature_id
    FROM ....One problem with this approach is when you export the report (as a CSV for example). There are a few ways to handle this, one is to simply duplicate the column with clear text yes and no and set this column to be included on export and only visible on export. The other column, with the link, set it to no export.
    The other option is to add another condition on the REQUEST value.

    Oh and of course, in order for the link to display you need to change the Display Type to "Standard Report Column" otherwise the HTML will be escaped.

  • I need help organising my iPhoto please

    Can someone help me with my iPhoto.
    I have 14,400 photos in my iPhoto library.
    I have albums which contain the photos from the library,as I assumed once you created an album it would eliminate them from the library.
    Consequently I have lots of albums with what I thought was trying to was create some order ...but instead it's left me with photos everywhere.
    To create more dilema,I lost my hard-drive a few years ago and had not backed up any photos(5 years worth)....luckily for me my brother had backed up some and put them back into iPhoto for me but for some reason I now have 3 and 4 of the same photo.
    To make it more annoying the photos whilst there may be 3 of the same they are all different pixel sizes?Not sure how this happened?
    I've also got 3,300 photos in trash that I'm too scared to delete incase I don't have that exact photo in the library.
    Is there any easy way to sort this out,because the problem is getting worse as I try to create order?
    Is it possible to organize them all into folders that way I can delete them from the library and trash ?
    Thanks in advance

    Would you mind to clarify a few points, please?
    I have 14,400 photos in my iPhoto library.
    o.k.
    I have albums which contain the photos from the library,as I assumed once you created an album it would eliminate them from the library.
    Consequently I have lots of albums with what I thought was trying to was create some order ...but instead it's left me with photos everywhere.
    That part is not clear to me.
    What kind of albums are you talking about? Do you mean iPhoto albums as seen in the "Albums" section of the source list?
    Yes the albums are contained in the Albums section
    as I assumed once you created an album it would eliminate them from the library.
    Albums will index and organize the photos in your library, but not store them and not remove them from the library. All photos need to be contained in an event. When you are referring to "library", are you referring to your iPhoto library or to the "Library" section in the source list in the iPhoto window?
    Yes the library I'm referring to is the Iphoto library.I do have Events also...will organising Events take them out of my Libraray?
    .but instead it's left me with photos everywhere.
    Perhaps you are confused by iPhoto showing you different views of the same photos.
    The top part of the source list "Library" gives you access to all your photos based on the events, as list of all "Photos", organized by the Faces, or organized by the Places. You can access the same photos in four different ways.
    The "Recent" section gives you access based on the date; but again you will see the very same photos, only grouped differently.
    These are the access paths predefined by iPhoto. The "Albums" section and "Projects" section will give you additional custom structures to retrieve your photos, the access structure you define yourself. But it will not remove the default organisation created by iPhoto, only supplement it with your own custom structures.
    To make it more annoying the photos whilst there may be 3 of the same they are all different pixel sizes?Not sure how this happened?
    Now, this is probably caused by the way you reimported your photos into your new library. When you take the folders from an iPhoto library and simply import all folders, you will import each photo in three different sizes, for the library contains thumbnails, previews, and full size original image files and versions.
    Would it be possible for you to repeat the import step from the backup your brother has made for you? It might be easier to sort your photos in the finder by size and only to import the full size image files, then to do that manually. What is the backup like, that your brother has made? Is it an iPhoto library or a folder containing photos and folders of your old iPhoto library?
    I'm not sure how my brother saved the photos as it's been years since he re imported them for me,I'd rather do this myself than trouble him again.I've thought maybe I can set up a folder on my desktop and drag all the main photos from the library into there,then delete iPhoto and start all over again?
    But before you proceed with deleting photos that you are not sure about, create a backup of the library, so you will be safe, if you accidentally delete too much.
