Have just installed Lightbox into WepYep as per instructions. It says to change the name of the resulting folder that usually has version number (the only one I can find is the main parent one which is called lightbox2) to lightbox and upload to the /opt directory in WebYep. I have done this, but all I get now is the image displayed in the top left corner of a blank browser page. Is there something I am missing? Have gone back through WebYep guide and OD site, but it just tell’s me what I have already done.
Did you manage to sort this one out? I’m having exactly the same issue. Other sources hint at Javascript clashes, but I’ve tested this on a blank page with no other JS calls other than that WebYep initiates for me.
Still the same… image top left in a new browser window. Appreciate any advice if you have managed to get it working, as others seem to have.
Thanks for replying! The path is correct and the index.html page appears, so that bit I’m pretty sure is OK.
Just sat down to have a fiddle with this now, so I’ll see if I can crack it. It’s puzzling, because I’ve always managed to get Lightbox running fine on standard web sites, but this is the first time I’ve messed around with WebYep, and it would be great if I could get it to work.
I’m trying to build a Gallery using loops, much like you see on the WebYep demo site, but I can’t get past first base with the Lightbox integration so far
Thinking it might be related to something Freeway was doing, I installed the Dreamweaver extension and did a quick test page using WebYep in that. So quick in fact that I didn’t bother to amend ‘lightbox.js’ with the correct paths to the images. Finding that it worked, I decided to amend that path, saved the file and suddenly it stopped working!
Pasting a fresh copy from the downloaded folder in place of the amended file restored it immediately, so it was clear what was wrong… I was saving the file with the wrong text encoding. It needed to be Unicode (UTF-8) rather than my text editor’s default of Western (ISO Latin 1).
The file with the proper encoding now works perfectly on the Freeway-built site.
I know this post is quite old now, but I am trying to get lightbox to work with Webyep in FW5.5 Pro. I have installed the lightbox folder within the Webyep folder as per the instructions(http://www.obdev.at/resources/webyep/documentation/WebYep_Documentation_1.2.4/reference/image.html) and as described in this thread the image now appears in the top left corner of the browser rather than in the lightbox window.
Can’t understand how you fixed it Matt, so wonder if you, or anyone out there could give me some easy basic instructions on how to get this working in FW5.5 Pro.
