I like jLE! My question: can the overlay – after opening – remain fixed when the page is scrolled instead of recentering vertically? I want to open a rather big iframe and on small screen resolutions it needs some scrolling – which is not possible, when it tries to recenter.
Hi,
Yes. Add &lightbox[move]=false at the end of the URL .
Hello, first of all I really love this item but Im having a bit of a trouble implementing this into my infrastructure. The images that are viewed on our website comes through a link protective system so the image src is from a php for example:
img src="<?php echo "getobj.php?image=10" ?>"
But the lightbox says: ” You need to specify the size of the lightbox”
I tried with an image without the php echo and it worked, but with our system we cant show the url which is why the PHP renders it and gives it.
Is there anything I can do about this?
Add lightbox[force]=image to the url.
<?php echo "getobj.php?image=10&lightbox[force]=image" ?>
I’m trying to load a video with videojs (http://videojs.com HTML5 video using .mp4, .ogv or .webm depending on the browser). Is this possible in your setup without using an iframe? I’ve purchased your lightbox code twice so far and will continue to for future projects if you would be so kind as to respond. Thank you.
Hi,
Is it possible to show the loading spinner by default, regardless of what type of media is being loaded, such as PDF , iFrame, JPG and so on.
I just need a gif animation to play regardless so that there is some indication of activity to the user when downloading PDFs for example.
Thanks in advance.

1) Are custom gallery arrows supported? The left and right arrows included are too small. I noticed that sometimes my visitors miss the other pictures in the gallery.
How can I use custom arrows and place them in the middle? e.g. The bigger right arrow will be on the middle right of the image and the left arrow will be on the opposite side.
2) Is it possible to move to the next image when it is clicked on?
Thank you
Hey, it would be great if Lightbox Evolution offers an automatic slideshow mode like PrettyPhoto: http://www.no-margin-for-errors.com/projects/prettyphoto-jquery-lightbox-clone/
The animations are smoother, etc. with Lightbox evolution and many features of prettyphoto are useless however the automatic slideshow/gallery feature wiith start/pause button is awesome and would be a superb extension for lightbox evolution….
Is it possible to open an iframe without specifying width & height so it can open in maximum width and height of user’s browser window (just like images)?
If this feature is not already supported, would you add it in the future?
Thanks
Yes. You have to specify width=95p and height=95p in the url.
?lightbox[iframe]=true&lightbox[width]=95p&lightbox[height]=95p
Thank you
Hi, How can i install this with Code canyon ShowPhoto ?

Hi, I’m trying to load a video inside a lightbox that’s hosted on my own site (i.e. not youtube / vimeo). Is it possible to do this without using an iframe? My problem is that the video can’t go full screen inside an iframe in Firefox and Chrome. Thanks!
We have just tested the portfolio items that use this tool at http://www.letsdesign.co.uk (main page items). They look fine in all browsers apart from IE9 . IE9 adds scroll bars to the horizontal and vertical. why is this and how do I solve this issue?
Thanks.
Hi,
I had in mind to use this lightbox to display an HTML page which contains an exhaustive expendable menu for our site… Now the issue I’m having is that any of the links in that html page are actually being opened in the lightbox itself instead of bringing me back to the desired page on the website. How do I go about that? Thx 
How do I set the lightbox background colour? I have some transparency on my SWF and need to make it a black background. I am using classic-dark CSS . Thanks in advance.
.jquery-lightbox-mode-html .jquery-lightbox-background
{
background: #000000;
}
Hi aeroalquimia,
We like your popup, but before we buy it we’d like to know something. Is it possible to use the popup as a modal and then multiple popups on top of eachother? The one on top is active and the ones in the background are waiting until the popup above is closed.
Thanks!
No, it doesn’t have that mode.
Two quick (newbie) questions:
Let’s say my images are 500×500 pixels and I want to open then in a window with 600×600 pixels without resizing the image but instead, having a white “border” (or some padding if your prefer).
Is this possible? How?
Another question: if it possible to configure the lightbox back and forth buttons so that they do not show on the previous and last image respectively?
Thanks for your help and thanks for the great script!
Wow, I promise that did not look like that when I wrote it. ^^
Hey Aero,
I am currently trying to open a custom ”.mp4,” which is uploaded on my website.
I have the following in my header:
<link href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory') ?>/js/lightbox/themes/default/jquery.lightbox.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<!--[if IE 6]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory') ?>/js/lightbox/themes/default/jquery.lightbox.ie6.css" />
<![endif]-->
<script src="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory') ?>/js/lightbox/jquery.lightbox.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
$('.lightbox').lightbox();
});
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$('.videobox').live('click', function(ev) {
var video = $(this).attr('href');
$.lightbox('http://player.longtailvideo.com/player.swf', {
force: 'flash',
flashvars: 'file='+video+'&autostart=true&stretching=fill'
});
ev.preventDefault();
});
});
</script>
I have this in my single.php (in Wordpress):
<a href="<?php if ( get_post_meta($post->ID, 'video_url', true) ) : ?><?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'video_url', true) ?><?php endif; ?>" class="videobox"><img class="fl video" src="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory') ?>/images/jgHolder.jpg" border="0" height="225" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" width="400" /></a>
The page is here:
http://www.justgrandproductions.com/?p=243
As you can see, lightbox opens but it does not load the video. Any suggestions?
Hello. Thank you for a great product. It works very well for me and I recommend it to anyone wanting to purchase it.
I bought it sometime after the last September update. I noticed a couple of updates since then. How should I update my existing files once I have downloaded the latest version? Is it just the javascript that has changed? Should I just copy, paste, and replace the previous javascript? Or are there some CSS files I should replace?
Thanks!
There was a small change in all css files, but update only the javascript if you want.
Can you tell me please if is any settings so when i click the image will go to the next image? something like facebook images.
It´s appear an error in Internet Explorer, the page stays with a huge scroll when i open the lightbox… It happens with someone else?

¡Hola Eduardo!
- primero: gracias por esta pequeña joya 
- duda de uso: necesito que mis visitantes cuando visiten la web principal vean en primera linea un aviso tipo pop-up de que la web se inagura en breve, puedan cerrar éste y navegen por la web ya que tengo 4 cosas ya puestas, como un pop-up de entrada ¿Cómo lo hago compañero?
¡Saludos y gracias!
