Lightbox TCN widget

Hi, I just downloaded the Dreamweaver CS5 extension to use the Lightbox widget... It works fine BUT I can't change the positioning of the block with the thumbs, it's always stuck in the upper left corner... I tried modifiying the Class but it didn't worked... Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Here's what I have...

Lightbox Gallery - TCN Widget not displaying live

Hi,
I wonder if anyone could help with this please. I've downloaded the TCN Widget Lightbox Gallery and it works fine in preview mode but I can't get it to work properly live on the web. Whenever I click on a thumbnail, the large image does display but that's it - there's no graphics (beside the main image) and it's not placed properly etc.
The site is: http://www.valuevisionglasses.co.uk and the relevant gallery pages from the drop down menu would be Ladies, Gents, Sunglasses.
It's probably something obvious that I'm missing but I've been tearing my hair out for two days over this.

Hi Ibby26,
looking to your source code the first thing I saw (I know, I have to go deeper next time) was this little difference, please control it. You started with:
<script src="scripts/jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="lightbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="lightbox.js"></script>
Widgets code is in my DW:
<title>Lightbox Gallery : <default></title>
<script type='text/javascript' src='scripts/jquery.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='scripts/lightbox.js'></script>
<link type='text/css' href='css/lightbox.css' rel='stylesheet'/>
<link type='text/css' href='css/sample_lightbox_layout.css' rel='stylesheet'/>
<style type="text/css">
... and Lightbox actually responds very sensitively to deeper nesting and wide ramifications of directories and sometimes and sometimes even in long file names, like "Alpine-Titanium-Alp23-M.Gun-54-17.jpg". For this reason I created for all my lightbox-applications one single lightbox-directory. There you will find all my lightbox-php-html-files and all the subdirectories for the corresponding images and from there Lightbox worked.

Help with lightbox gallery widget

Hello
I built a website for my photography business and used the lightbox gallery widget. I'm not massively HTML minded so I tend to build in design view and just tweak the HTML code.
The gallery is here: http://www.emmarichards.co.uk/gallery.html
When you click on one of the photos, it is not working properly, it just takes you to another webpage with just the image. It worked fine in the live view. I'm looking at it in IE, not sure which version but a fairly up to date one I think. I've also checked it using the Mozilla browser and having the same problem. How can I rectify this please? The pages code is as follows:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Do I need to have the same path as in my root folder, so for example within my Public folder with my host, have a 'script's folder and then put the 'jquery.js' file within that or should that not matter?
All paths (the route from the parent file to the dependent file) are crucial.
If the path is not correct, the required file will not be found and the effect will not work.
There's no need to upload files individually and manually place them into remote folders. DW handles all file and folder paths for you if you use the Files panel.
For example, http://www.emmarichards.co.uk/scripts/lightbox.js = 404 error. The file still does not exist on the server in that location.
You should be able to click on the css and scripts folders locally, click Put and all files in those folders will be uploaded correctly.

Lightbox Gallery Widget Rocks

Hello Everyone,
I really like the look of photographs as presented by the Lightbox Gallery Widget, available on Dreamweaver Exchnage, and authored by Andres Cayon, from the Spain Adobe Dreamweaver User Group.
Also, please let me express my gratitude for his help with a small issue. The word 'close" did not appear because the path for that gif needed to be changed in JS Lightbox. Not only did Andres Canyon help resolve this issue, he did so very promptly.
The Lightbox Gallery Widget is a beautiful way to showcase my photographs and I am grateful that he makes it available for free and for his timely assistance. What can I say but many thanks to Andres Cayon!

Thanks for the reply
I think i have it working now.
Not really sure what I did though.

Please Help. Lightbox Gallery Widget will not work

When I put it into Dreamweaver and then go preview it in browser there are just a bunch of empty boxes where the images should be. The images actually show up in dreamweaver but not as a functioning widget, but the images will not show up when I preview them in browsers... any help will be appreciated.
Avery

So I think I figured it out... I guess it didnt transfer all the files needed when I brought it from the widget browser... so i downloaded it from adove exchange I think... and then I went to insert and went to the bottom to tcn widgets and then it worked....

Problems using lightbox gallery widget

Hi, I am just learning Dreamweaver and thought I would try out a widget. I tried the lightbox gallery widget, and it mostly works, except that I get a box with a question mark on the right, under the photo when it is enlarged. It can't find some of the included widget image icon files. Anybody know why? It does it in live view and firefox and safari.
I looked at the code and from what I can tell, the code references images which appear to be in the correct directory /images/lightbox/blahblah.gif.
For example, the widget is supposed to say 'close' under the image, and that text is a .gif image apparently.
Anyone have this trouble or know what the problem could be?
Thanks
Bob

I found a fix for something similar that occurred on my machine. I too was seeing no problems locally but when I posted it to my site, it just had the placeholder and no images....
Apparently, dreamweaver is smarter than the browser... (maybe incorrect statement) however..... the file extensions are case sensitive!
I had this-------- <A href="Img/CGM_1.JPG" border="0" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG]" title="CGM Pic Set"><img src="Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG" /></a>
<a href="Img/CGM_2.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG]"></a>
                  <a href="Img/CGM_3.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG]"></a>
                  <a href="Img/CGM_4.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.JPG]"></a>
Well, I didnt think anything was so bad, all of the colors were right I wasn't getting any warnings.... wtf?
As it turns out, and this is only because I just started a new image set after testing an individual - - baby steps - - if you use the properties bar at the bottom of DW, it applies a different case for specific parts...... i.e. this is what it produced
<A HREF="Img/CGM_1.jpg" border="0" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg]" title="CGM Pic Set"><img src="Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg" /></a>
                  <a HREF="Img/CGM_2.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg]"></a>
                  <a HREF="Img/CGM_3.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg]"></a>
                  <a HREF="Img/CGM_4.jpg" rel="lightbox[Img/CGM_1thumb.jpg]"></a>
Notice the HREF's are now UPPER case and the jpg's are now lower case. !!!! really?!?!?
Also, another thing to look out for is the folder/ in front of your thumbnail; make sure it is there. In my case I use my sam "Img" folder, not the "images" folder that lightbox creates.
Hope this helps, I beat my head against the wall for a total of 10 hours over 2 days trying to figure this out. I couldn't find anything on the internet. I'm going to post this so others having this issue get it resolved. I found those, just no resolution.

LightBox Gallery Widget

Hi there,
I'm working on a website with some pictures on it. I've used the LightBox Gallery Widget for that.
In the liveview it works fine, but once I've try it at my webspace, the LightBox doesn't open and I get to another url.
You can find the website here: http://www.bokal.be/TEST1234/Foto-albumkopie.html
Thanks in advance!

What's happening when you click on a thumbnail is that the Lightbox doesn't kick in so the browser merely opens the fullsize image in another browser tab.
That's because it cannot find the Lightbox files on the server to activate the Lightbox effect.
http://www.bokal.be/TEST1234/scripts/lightbox.js does not exist on the server at the location that the code is pointing to.
Have you uploaded the "scripts" folder to your server?

Lightbox Gallery Widget for Mobile Site

A few questions regarding Lightbox Gallery Widget...
Is there a trick to getting a lightbox gallery inside of each Spry Tabbed Panels 2 tab?
Is there a way to scale down the enlarged photos 50% with css for iPhone retina display (as can be done with Spry Content Slideshow)?
Is there a way to show (make visible) the Prev/Next buttons on the enlarged images for touch screen? I've moved them outside of the image area, but the hover state doesn't seem to be editable with CSS.
Thanks,
Steve

1, There is no trick, just make sure that each unique constructor is within each each tab.
2 and 3 The widget is third party and as such you will need to obtain the information elsewhere like here http://leandrovieira.com/projects/jquery/lightbox/

Captions in Lightbox Slideshow Widget

The metadata in my files have both a Title and a Caption, yet when i Add Images to the Lightbox Slideshow Widget, I am stuck with Lorem Ipsum on every photo. Do I have to add the Captions manually for every image?!

Can someone at Adobe please confirm that there is no reading of the image metadata. I thought it was limiting that it was only the caption field available. I am stunned if this is the case that no metadata is being read. I am working on a photo web site and got to the point of importing photos with the 'captions' checked. Huge surprise. It is hard to believe that something as fundamental as basic metadata fields (caption, title, filename, copyright) isn't pulled with the image and available as needed. C'mon, you are the company that has Photoshop and Lightroom. Do you guys talk to the other teams?
I was looking at Muse galleries as an alternative to the LR web module for 2 reasons: one is flexibility in layout, and the other is speed, since the LR gallery export cranks along at a glacial pace to the point of being almost unusable. And this is the LR4 upgrade; much slower than LR3. See the LR threads on this if you're interested. Still waiting for that fix.
The thought of manually entering caption info to a dozen galleries, each with 20 or 30 images, is nonsense. This makes Muse a non-starter for photo galleries. This is basic capability. Adobe should be embarrassed that LR4 doesn't do what it should in this regard, and that the feature needed don't even exist in Muse. Everyone expects a few bugs in the early days of a new software, but not missing essential, fundamental features to make web galleries useful.
Rant now over and I will happily apologize if the metada fields are, indeed, available. Please explain how. Thanks.

Adobe Lightbox Gallery Widget

Can anyone please solve a problem I'm having with the above widget?
I inserted the Lightbox Gallery Widget into the Editable Region of a template page on my website. I then deleted three of the five default images in the code and swapped the remaining two images with my own images using the properties panel. The result was that the widget no longer works.
Therefore, I placed the widget onto a newly created (non template page) and it worked ok, but after I deleted three of the five default images in the code and swapped the remaining two images with my own images using the properties panel, it no longer worked.
I havn't uploaded my website as yet.
thanks

Hi All:
From my experience with other people having problems with the widget, here are some things you can check when it doesn't work:
Names with uppercase characters: Some servers don't see a difference between "images" and "Images" but most of them do: Check that the paths to the folders and files are correctly written. I encourage people to use always lowercase characters. Same applies to spaces (I prefer to use an underscore instead)
"scripts" folder: I've also found that some servers don't allow a folder called "scripts". You should change both the folder name and the paths in the main document.
Paths: This is the most common one: Make sure that the paths to the required files are correct. In theory, you shouldn't find this when the document is at the site root. If the document is inside a folder, sometimes files' location and related paths may vary. If you are using CS5 or above, a good trick is using the related files toolbar and check whether DW can find and open the files.
Upload all the required files: Some users forget to upload the "lightbox" folder, located inside "images". That folder contains the images used by the lightbox to work (nav and close buttons, for example). And also check that the paths to those images is correct. In this case, you can edit the paths in the parameters that you will find in the script code added to the document (names are quite self explanatory and every param is commented, so this shouldn't be a problem)
I hope this helps.

Getting Compositions' Lightbox Display Widget (Horizontal accordion) to close

Hi,
I'm trying to acheive something similar to this: http://www.visualarms.com/store/sites/mobilemenus/sliding-menu.html but I can't get the stacked or scattered positioned Lightbox Display to close. Any tips? Thank you.

I created this effect using the “Basic” tool in the “Slideshow widgets library”
I used two slideshow images.
IMAGE ONE
The first slideshow image on the screen is setup without any background/outline fill.
Since this shows automatically when you first display the page.
The trigger is also set to no outline/fill (its active state).
The text I added is also set with no fill. (its active state)
The second slideshow image has the trigger menu with a grey background,
IMAGE TWO
When you activate the menu button (or trigger), the second slideshow image appears with the Menu item widget placed inside. The first slideshow button highlighted in grey now appears with the text “close” showing. (both set as its normal states). When you mark close button the menu will slide off the screen and the “close text and highlight box will disappear.
Note: this setup will have to be placed on every slide, since placing it on the master page will default to the back.

Lightbox gallery widget not working properly in IE preview

The main problem I have is with the image opacity. The background is completely blanked out
when I do the IE F12 preview. In live view it works fine, and same with the widget preview. Opacity is set at the standard 0.6.
Any ideas? Is this a non-issue once have the site uploaded to the server?

Please upload your page to the web and post a link here. We need to see for ourselves what you are working with.
