Light Box Implementation

Freeway
1

Hi All,
So I’m a freeway (express) newbie, but so I saw an effect that I’d really like to implement. It’s lightwave 2, from stickmanlabs. The developer did a great job describing how to implement it, I just can’t fully figure it out for Freeway. Can anyone break it down for me? Thanks.

Weaver has an Action called Mootols Action Suit. It has a lightbox function that works very well and is easy to use. Here’s his site: http://www.coastalrugs.com/Actions/

However, you can’t add third-party actions to Freeway Express. For
that, you’ll need to use Freeway Pro. Softpress wil provide an
upgrade for the appropriate extra amount of cash.

There are ways to add this manually, but although I’ve done this (in
some database-driven PHP pages) I recommend you consider the upgrade
approach.

FW4Exp can accept encoded 3rd party actions, of which the Mootools Suite is part. However, the Lightbox Action included with that Suite only accepts images, not html, flash content, etc…

If you want to ‘try before you buy’, there is a beta version that I’m using as a defacto demo for people, available at the previously mentioned address.

Hope you enjoy.

((typical beta notices; may cause problems, may not be complete, features may change when released, not responsible…blah, blah, blah))
