IE problem with Lightbox

Hi there.
My question concerns http://www.energywa.co.za
You can click on any of the 2 images on the right.
When clickin in FF and Google Chrome, the lightbox works 100%. But, when trying it in IE 8, the image opens on the same page. When clicking anywhere else on the page, the effect of the lightbox shows, but no image.
Can you please check and advise what I am doing wrong?
Regards,
Deon

At the top of the forum page it reads:
Before you post a topic please verify that:
You are using the latest Spry files
The latest version of the Adobe Spry Framework is 1.6.1, this is the same version that ships with Dreamweaver CS4. If you use Dreamweaver CS3 (uses Spry 1.4), its wise to upgrade your files to the latest version. This can easily be done using the Spry Updater that can be found here.
Incidently, there is no problem with IE8 and Microsoft is in the process to urge IE6 users to upgrade.

Problems with lightbox and jquery

Hi guys,
Thanks for checking out my post...
I am using lightboxes for a gallery which work fine. However I'm also using a jQuery to drag in Tweets from Twitter.
I thought it was all working fine but the Twitter box doesn't seem to be updating.
After looking into the problem I added the below to my HTML header...
<script>jQuery.noConflict();</script>
...and then changed the $ in lightbox.js to jQuery but to no avail - the lightboxes just stopped working.
Can someone please take a look and see what I need to do to get the scripts running please?
Here the link
Thank you and hope to hear from you!

404 Error, File not found.
There have to be at least 100 lightbox clones available now. Some of the older ones use jQuery 1.2.
As of this writing, the most recent script from Google APi is jQuery 1.5.0 which may or may not work on older plug-ins. It's always a hit and miss thing with this stuff.

Please help anyone!

Hi Scott
Thank you so much for taking the time to look at my site.
about half an hour after i posted I realised there was a case-sensitive error reffering to the pictures in the javascript...
Wnated to delete the post however couldnt as my internet went offline.
If you could help me with another issue though.
As you can see the light box is currently set as a marquee on the page (<marquee><div> _lightbox </div></marquee>
is it possible to get the images scrolling on one line?

Problem with lightbox gallery

Hello,
I am in the process of getting a website portfolio together. Here is my issue, when I log on and go directly to the portfolio page http://www.heapwebdesign.com/portfolio.html it works fine. When I try to link to the page via the index page the slideshow does not work... Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Move the following code to the head content of the page.
<script type="text/javascript">
// BeginWebWidget lightbox_gallery
          $(function() {
        $('#gallery1 a').lightBox();
// EndWebWidget lightbox_gallery

Problems with lightbox

I added a lightbox to a page and it overlaps everything. All my other pages adjust in size to the other widgets or pictures I have added, however when the lightbox is added the page stays the same and the lightbox covers up the footer. It does this in preview and design. I tried to publish before posting for anything to see, but the publish fuction is giving me errors and not allowing the upload of my pictures (although it worked fine last night).
Anyway, here is a screenshot:

Hello,
Lightbox does not have the Target container visible when the page loads.
It is only visible when you click on the Triggers.
This is the reason why the Footer is not pushed down. The footer pushes down to provide space to the content to be placed on the page.
However in this case, it is just the thumbnails which are displayed on the page hence it does not push down the footer.
Hope it clarifies.
Regards,
Sachin

Problem with Alt Text output from thumbnail image of Lightbox widget

I’m having a problem with the Lightbox widget not producing alternative text based on the image properties. I’ve set ALT text for the image properties on both the larger Ligtbox image as well as the thumbnail. But the HTML output from Muse does not include the ALT text on the thumbnail version of the image. Here’s an example:
    <div class="popup_anchor">
       <div class="Thumb popup_element clearfix" id="u4409">
        <a class="anchor_item grpelem" id="untitled"></a>
        <div class="grpelem" id="u4433">
         <img id="u4433_img" src="/images/n0060292x292.jpg" alt="" width="292" height="292" />
This may be a problem that came in a previous release of Muse. I have a few older examples where ALT text is produced, but it’s no longer updated if I update the Image Properties.

I'm seeing the same problem. Looks like a bug to me. Any ideas as to how we can get this on Adobe's bug fix list?

Problem with Muse Lightbox and Chrome

Hi, I've just updated my website to a brand spanking new look, and I've had feedback of a problem with this page:
SHARPE GRAPHIC DESIGN – PORTFOLIO
Works fine on Safari and Firefox, but on Chrome the Hero image appears cropped to the top part of the image, until you scroll, then you can get it all.
Is this just another Chrome scrolling issue? Any help gratefully received.
Andy

Simple answer is.. It depends.. What version of IE are you referring to?
IE 6 - Run the hell away if ANY of your clients are still using this dinosaur
IE 7 - Drop this bad habit...
IE 8 - Still will find some issues, but not as bad as prior versions..
IE 9 - Seems to be better, but still NOT as compatible as FF or Chrome
Thank you,

Problems with sound when I embed multiple videos on auto play into a composition widget.

I am having problems with the sound when I embed multiple videos on autoplay into a composition widget in Muse. It sounds as if they are all playing at once. Note that within the compostion widget, options - the auto play is disabeled.
I've a television set that has buttons below and I want the users to flick through the channels.
I need the oriantaion to be stacked as they're contained within a frame (the tv). I have tried the lightbox view (which at first seamed to solve the problem), but unfortunately the position, orientation moves when shown on different divises. It Had to be quite precise as I was ovelaying the original frame within the light box.
Could you please help me with this?
Also, I wanted to let you know that I think this software is amazing. Great job!
here is the link:

Hi Alban,
I see what you are seeing. Could you send your file so I can investigate more? Send it to [email protected], with a link to this thread in the message body. If the file is >20mb, our email system cannot handle it so use a service like Adobe SendNow.
Thanks,

I have seriously messed up. Can someone help with Lightbox?

DW CS4.
I have added a ScrolltoTop.js to some pages, which works OK, but at the same time I have managed to destruct the functionality of Lightbox.
See here: http://ppbm5.com/'Benchmark5-1.html
Previous to adding the ScrolltoTop functionality it worked without a problem, now it no longer works. When you now click on one of the two links to show either the MPE Gains or the Top-20 Performance chart, they open in a window, instead of in a lightbox. It probably is something very simple, but I don't know where I went wrong. Here are the first lines of code:

I assume that I made a stupid mistake here. If someone can show me what is messed up, I would be grateful.
I know that the code should be validated, but the severe limitations of Excel make that an almost impossible task, when these large pages need to be refreshed almost weekly.

Hi
It is possible that the 3 javascript frameworks you are using are causing the problem as each one modifys the way javascript works in some way.
Using 2 different frameworks can often cause problems with effects, so using 3 frameworks will certainly have increase the chances of a conflict. Always try and use plug-ins that work with just one framework.

A problem with threads

I am trying to implement some kind of a server listening for requests. The listener part of the app, is a daemon thread that listens for connections and instantiates a handling daemon thread once it gets some. However, my problem is that i must be able to kill the listening thread at the user's will (say via a sto button). I have done this via the Sun's proposed way, by testing a boolean flag in the loop, which is set to false when i wish to kill the thread. The problem with this thing is the following...
Once the thread starts excecuting, it will test the flag, find it true and enter the loop. At some point it will LOCK on the server socket waiting for connection. Unless some client actually connects, it will keep on listening indefinatelly whithought ever bothering to check for the flag again (no matter how many times you set the damn thing to false).
My question is this: Is there any real, non-theoretical, applied way to stop thread in java safely?
Thank you in advance,
Lefty

This was one solution from the socket programming forum, have you tried this??
public Thread MyThread extends Thread{
     boolean active = true;
     public void run(){
          ss.setSoTimeout(90);
          while (active){
               try{
                    serverSocket = ss.accept();
               catch (SocketTimeoutException ste){
               // do nothing
     // interrupt thread
     public void deactivate(){
          active = false;
          // you gotta sleep for a time longer than the
          // accept() timeout to make sure that timeout is finished.
          try{
               sleep(91);
          }catch (InterruptedException ie){
          interrupt();
}

Problem with Threads and a static variable

I have a problem with the code below. I am yet to make sure that I understand the problem. Correct me if I am wrong please.
Code functionality:
A timer calls SetState every second. It sets the state and sets boolean variable "changed" to true. Then notifies a main process thread to check if the state changed to send a message.
The problem as far I understand is:
Assume the timer Thread calls SetState twice before the main process Thread runs. As a result, "changed" is set to true twice. However, since the main process is blocked twice during the two calls to SetState, when it runs it would have the two SetState timer threads blocked on its synchronized body. It will pass the first one, send the message and set "changed" to false since it was true. Now, it will pass the second thread, but here is the problem, "changed" is already set to false. As a result, it won't send the message even though it is supposed to.
Would you please let me know if my understanding is correct? If so, what would you propose to resolve the problem? Should I call wait some other or should I notify in a different way?
Thanks,
B.D.
Code:
private static volatile boolean bChanged = false;
private static Thread objMainProcess;
   protected static void Init(){
        objMainProcess = new Thread() {
            public void run() {
                while( objMainProcess == Thread.currentThread() ) {
                   GetState();
        objMainProcess.setDaemon( true );
        objMainProcess.start();
    public static void initStatusTimer(){
        if(objTimer == null)
             objTimer = new javax.swing.Timer( 1000, new java.awt.event.ActionListener(){
                public void actionPerformed( java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt){
                          SetState();
    private static void SetState(){
        if( objMainProcess == null ) return;
        synchronized( objMainProcess ) {
            bChanged = true;
            try{
                objMainProcess.notify();
            }catch( IllegalMonitorStateException e ) {}
    private static boolean GetState() {
        if( objMainProcess == null ) return false;
        synchronized( objMainProcess ) {
            if( bChanged) {
                SendMessage();
                bChanged = false;
                return true;
            try {
                objMainProcess.wait();
            }catch( InterruptedException e ) {}
            return false;
    }

Thanks DrClap for your reply. Everything you said is right. It is not easy to make them alternate since SetState() could be called from different places where the state could be anything else but a status message. Like a GREETING message for example. It is a handshaking message but not a status message.
Again as you said, There is a reason I can't call sendMessage() inside setState().
The only way I was able to do it is by having a counter of the number of notifies that have been called. Every time notify() is called a counter is incremented. Now instead of just checking if "changed" flag is true, I also check if notify counter is greater than zero. If both true, I send the message. If "changed" flag is false, I check again if the notify counter is greater than zero, I send the message. This way it works, but it is kind of a patch than a good design fix. I am yet to find a good solution.
Thanks,
B.D.

Problem with threads running javaw

Hi,
Having a problem with multi thread programming using client server sockets. The program works find when starting the the application in a console using java muti.java , but when using javaw multi.java the program doesnt die and have to kill it in the task manager. The program doesnt display any of my gui error messages either when the server disconnect the client. all works find in a console. any advice on this as I havent been able to understand why this is happening? any comment would be appreciated.
troy.

troy,
Try and post a minimum code sample of your app which
does not work.
When using javaw, make sure you redirect the standard
error and standard output streams to file.
Graeme.Hi Graeme,
I dont understand what you mean by redirection to file? some of my code below.

Problem with threads and camera.

Hi everybody!
I've a problem with taking snapshot.
I would like to display a loading screen after it take snapshot ( sometimes i
have to wait few seconds after i took snapshot. Propably photo is being taken in time where i have to wait).
I was trying to use threads but i didn't succeed.
I made this code:
display.setCurrent(perform);
        new Thread(new Runnable(){
            public void run() {
                while((!performing.isShown()) && (backgroundCamera.isShown())){
                    Thread.yield();
                notifyAll();
        }).start();
        new Thread(new Runnable(){
            public void run() {
                try {
                    this.wait();
                } catch(Exception e) {
                    exceptionHandler(e);
                photo = camera.snapshot();
                display.setCurrent(displayPhoto);
        }).start();This code is sometimes showing performing screen but sometimes no.
I don't know why. In my opinion performing.isShown() method isn't working correctly.
Does anyone have some idea how to use threads here?

Hi,
I've finally managed to work this fine.
The code:
       Object o = new Object();
       display.setCurrent(perform);
        new Thread(new Runnable(){
            public void run() {
                while(!performing.isShown()){
                    Thread.yield();
               synchronized(o) {
                  o.notify();
        }).start();
        new Thread(new Runnable(){
            public void run() {
                try {
                    synchronized(o) {
                       o.wait(1);
                } catch(Exception e) {
                    exceptionHandler(e);
                photo = camera.snapshot();
                display.setCurrent(displayPhoto);
        }).start();

Problem with threads hanging

We have a problem where our application stops responding after a few days of usage. Things will for fine for a day or two, and then pretty quickly threads will start getting hung up, usually in places where they are allocating memory
We are running WebLogic 8.1 SP2 on Sun JDK 1.4.2_04 on Solaris 8 using the alternate threading model and the -server hotspot vm. We are running pretty much the same code that we had no problems with under WebLogic 6.1 SP4 and Sun JDK 1.3.1.
A thread dump usually shows that some or all of our execute threads are in the state "waiting for monitor entry" even though they are not currently waiting on any java locks. Here is a sample thread from the thread dump (we have ~120 threads so I don't want to post the full dump).

Also when it's having this problem, the "VM Thread" is always using a lot of processor time. We did a couple of pstacks today while it was having this problem, and this thread was stuck in the ONMethodSweeper.sweep for over 15 minutes when we finally killed the server.
From the thread dump:

Has anyone ever seen anything like this? I'm trying to figure out if this is caused by something we're doing, or something relating to our environment and jvm options. Any ideas?

Thanks for the reply - I'm testing our app with the +UseConcMarkSweepGC now in our test environment to make sure it doesn't cause any problems there. Unfortunately the only place we've had this problem is on the production server, so it's extra difficult debugging this.
We're using the following memory options:
-ms512m -mx512m -XX:NewSize=128m -XX:PermSize=192m -XX:MaxNewSize=128m -XX:MaxPermSize=192m -XX:SurvivorRatio=8and the following debugging options, as we've also been seeing OutOfMemoryErrors ( see http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=37&thread=522354&tstart=45&trange=15 )
-verbosegc -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintHeapAtGCBTW, which c++filt version and options are you using? Our Solaris boxes only seem to have the GNU version installed. I was trying to run that on some of the other stack traces and wasn't getting anywhere, and didn't know if because it was GNU version wouldn't work on something compiled with the Sun compiler.
Thanks!

Problem with threads and ProgressMonitor

Dear Friends:
I have a little problem with a thread and a ProgressMonitor. I have a long time process that runs in a thread (the thread is in an separate class). The thread has a ProgressMonitor that works fine and shows the tasks progress.
But I need deactivate the main class(the main class is the user interface) until the thread ends.
I use something like this:
LongTask myTask=new LongTask();
myTask.start();
myTask.join();
Now, the main class waits for the task to end, but the progress monitor don`t works fine: it shows only the dialog but not the progress bar.
What's wrong?

Is the dialog a modal dialog? This can block other UI updates.
In general, you should make sure that it isn't modal, and that your workThread has a fairly low priority so that the UI can do its updating
