Support/Comments for MadBoxr

ok strange, the plugin works now, but i have one problem.
When I put in a url with ’index.php?id=1’ it takes away the ’=1’ part.
Any solution or update for this? If not I can’t use it for a modx site.

sorry for late reply, I have been busy in these days...
anyway: this behavior above usually is due to some code caching, so you were still using the wrong mootools.js, although in the website there was the right one...

any help on this? This would allow me to complete my website. Also i’d think it’d be a big portion of the reason you’d want this in modx...to link to other modx files.

SOLVED, download the new version from the resources

the only thing is that "url=" should be the last field, e.g.

#madboxr?h=50&w=200&url=http://www.whateveryou.com/want/?q=45&p=34

and NOT

#madboxr?url=http://www.whateveryou.com/want/?q=45&p=34&h=50&w=200

otherwise, the snippet cannot distinguish between parameters for it (h,w) and parameters of the url

Works perfect! Thanks for the update.
Now the next question is how to get rid of the scrollbar, but I’m assuming thats under the CSS of the page.
Thanks very much and I hope others can take advantage of the update as well.

the scroll bar is a iframe feature, I think... I’m not sure you can get rid of it... search on the internet if it is possible to get rid of the scroll bar in iframes

Yep, I just added

iframe {
overflow: hidden;
}

to my main Css and it worked fine.

*edit*
Nevermind, the scrollbars is in the js code. Open the code and search for ’scrolling’ change the yes to a no.

Hi,

I left this comment on the author’s personal site too, but just in case somebody else can help, I’m leaving it here too...

I installed your excellent MadBoxr plug-in into my current MODx project, and managed to get it working very quickly. Bravo to you for making it so easy!

However, I have an issue... :
There is a Flash object on my page, and as soon as the MadBoxr plugin kicks in and darkens the page, the whole Flash object just disappears! I am currently using wmode="transparent" for my Flash, but the result is the same even if I use wmode="window" or "opaque".

You can see the page in progress here :

If you click on the only visible link ("Le service en ligne") in the bottom box ("Notre métier"), you will see what happens.

Do you have any ideas as to how to get around this?

Thanx in advance!

If anyone can help, it’d be HUGE. Thanks in advance!
Ric

Just a followup to my previous post : this issue with the disappearing Flash object seems to ONLY affect Gecko browsers (Firefox, Camino) on the Mac - so it isn’t a Madboxr issue, à priori. Firefox on Win works fine.

Weird...

I there... sorry for my late reply.
Actually the answer is: yes, it’s a flash problem I think... I have a FireFox on a Linux 64bit and sometimes I see strange things, during the darking phase, also in commercial sites. I do not think to be able to help you... sorry

hi
i´ve been having a bit of trouble......not actually with madboxr but with maxigallery SINCE i installed madboxr so i was writing here to ask if anyone has had this problem b4 and if any ideas. the page is: www.vidamedia.es and if you look at the right bar of "Recent Work" and hit the "view site" link u´ll see where i´ve used madboxr iframes to display the websites i´ve built.......all good so far......
skip to: http://www.vidamedia.es/print and you´ll see a gallery of my recent print work using maxigallery with slimbox, code is:

[!MaxiGallery? &display=`embedded` &embedtype=`slimbox` &pics_per_row=`5` &max_thumb_size=`110` &max_pic_size=`0` &thumb_use_dropshadow=`1`!]

click on one of the thumbnails and you´ll see that that has gone a bit funky.......also the links on the right "view site" again are not working perfectly, it´s like something is wrong on the padding on the frame or something......see how the CLOSE X is almost cut off the screen?
Am I being too greedy trying to use maxigallery and madboxr? I hope not cos together they make a great way to present print and digital work in a similar way.
Thanks in advance to anyone that has bothered to read this and help me out!
Cheers
Dan

I’ve run across the following problem:

After installing MadBoxr and following the instructions to replace the /manager/media/script/mootools/mootools.js script with the latest version from the the mootools website (version 1.2), I logged back in to the Manager to discover that my Document Tree had suddenly disappeared, although the pages were still loading in the web browser.

I replaced the newer mootools script with the old again to see if that fixed the problem, and it did immediately.

So, to fix the issue I have gone into the plugin code for MadBoxr and edited the following line:



replacing it with:



I then had to upload the new mootools javascript file to the same location as the old one, only changing it’s filename to ’mootools-12.js’.

Everything works like a charm now! Thanks for the plugin madmage!
