Hi guys!
I'm working in PHPBB 3.0.2 and I'd like to create a BB Code that gives one thumbnail image on mouseover and the larger version in a popup window like Lightbox 2, Ajax, or the likes.
It's a linux server.
Thanks for the help!
-Free
Edit: At some point in the future, it would be nice if, when clicked, the image appears on one side and any updated text information can appear on the other side. Much of the pictures' corresponding information changes quarterly and we would like to be able to keep up with it. Thanks again!

Why don't you use the lightbox itself?
The following goes inside the header on a normal webpage. Which file and directory do I put this in? - <script type="text/javascript" src="js/prototype.js"></script>
-
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects,builder"></script>
-
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/lightbox.js"></script>
This part goes in the existing stylesheet, but where do I find the stylesheet? We've got ten or twelve different styles - I hope I do not need to edit each style. (If so, I expect it would be simplest to make an include statement in each and point to one file. Within that one file write all the includes and necessary directory information for the Lightbox 2 files) - <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/lightbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
Also, I believe this is the code to Lightbox the file: - <a href="images/{SIMPLETEXT1}.jpg" rel="lightbox[{SIMPLETEXT2}]">{SIMPLETEXT1}</a>
I don't mind editing the code to get what I want (lack of next and previous arrows, etc), but this is my first foray into anything SQLish. I feel quite lost on where to put the files and what exactly my point of reference is for the directories.
Also, it appears to me many of the files I would normally edit are missing or hidden. I believe I have full access within my FTP client, so I think they're simply not there.

I suppose this should be working, as you are doing exactly as what told by the creator of that lightbox in that how to use page. What's the problem now?

Yeah, I get *what* I'm supposed to do, but I don't understand *where* these inserts need to go.

First three need to be inside the head tag, and the hyperlink needs to be where your image is (inside the body tag).

Of which file though? I'm working in a PHPBB forum. I don't have a simple webpage that I can edit those lines in.
Here's a picture to help clarify.

make a 'js' and a 'css' folder in your root folder and place the js files and css files in them respectively.
Ok, I tried adding the following to the overall_header. html of the forum style I'm using. - <script type="text/javascript" src="js/prototype.js"></script>
-
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects,builder"></script>
-
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/lightbox.js"></script>
And then I appended the code from the Lightbox CSS to the style's own CSS file.
In the BBCode I put the following (customized for the website)
BB Code: - [lightbox2]{TEXT}[/lightbox2]
HTML Replacement Code: - <a href="http://www.website.com/pics/{TEXT}.jpg" rel="lightbox[set]" title="{TEXT}">{TEXT}</a>
Now when I post [lightbox2]sample[/lightbox2] it gives me the sample.jpg in a whole different page.
I suspect the root of this is addressed on Lightbox's Support page where it states - It doesn't work at all. The image opens up in a new page. What's wrong?
-
This is commonly caused by a conflict between scripts. Check your body tag and look for an onload attribute. Example:
-
<body onload="MM_preloadImages(‘/images/menu_on.gif’)…;">
-
A quick fix to this problem is to append the initLightbox() to the onload attribute as so:
-
<body onload="MM_preloadImages(‘/images/menu_on.gif’)…;initLightbox()">
Unfortunately, I haven't found a conflict source. I've since downloaded the entire forum to search more thoroughly, but I haven't turned up anything yet.

I'm sure you are doing some small mistake somewhere. Do you have any test page so that I may have a look at it?
