      Hi, Martyn!

      I don’t know what you’re talking about... I don’t get the overlay with IE6 at all? But I remember that you had the same issue with that bittersweet embrace site too, and this one uses the same template.. it’s some margin setting at the css that’s causing this..

        So the more I learn about this whole ModX world, the more I’m loving it! This snippet has been the key point of my personal website as I am just beginning to play with the framework. That said I do have a quandary I am trying to resolve:
        When I use the "pics_per_page" setting the system generates links to child "pages", however those links return the 404 page! Here is an example of the URL generated:
        site.org/index.php?q=20030404.html?page=2

        Are there specific settings that have to be used to utilize the &pics_per_page feature?

          The problem is that your url generates wrong. There is two ? chars in the url and the later should be &. But what version of MaxiGallery are you using? The first version did not use MODx makeUrl api call to generate urls and this could happen at that time. It’s fixed in the newest versions though.

          If you are using the newest MaxiGallery, what FURL settings you use?

            I’ve got the 0.4.1 ver installed. The FURL settings are as follows:
            UseFURL="yes";
            Prefix="index.php?q=";
            Suffix=".html";
            FriendlyAlias="yes";
            FriendlyAliasPath="no";
            DupAlias="no";
            AutoGenAlias="no"

              Prefix="index.php?q=";
              That’s the problem. The makeUrl api call cannot cope with prefixes that allready has ? in it.. I’ll note this to the devteam and see if we can get it resolved.

                  Yes, the overlay is made for IE inside conditional css statements, just remove it and overlay should be gone in IE.

                  So, from the functions.php file search for <!--[if gte IE 5.5]>

                  Replace this
                  $slidebox_css_str = '
                  <!--[if gte IE 5.5]>
                  <![if lt IE 7]>
                  <style type="text/css">
                  * html #overlay{
                  background-color: #333;
                  back\ground-color: transparent;
                  background-image: url(' . $modx->config['site_url'] . 'assets/snippets/maxigallery/slidebox/blank.gif);
                  filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader (src="' . $modx->config['site_url'] . 'assets/snippets/maxigallery/slidebox/overlay.png", sizingMethod="scale");
                  </style>
                  <![endif]>
                  <![endif]-->';


                  With:
                  $slidebox_css_str = '';


                  EDIT: Or were we talking about Lightbox v2 ? If that’s the case, you need to compare the slidebox css with Lightbox v2 css and replace the lightbox overlay styles with css from slidebox file (#overlay sections).

                      I don’t think this is a bug per se. The HTTP protocol doesn’t support parsing URLs in the format of: http://site?arg1?arg2. The proper way to solve this is to change the URL to be: http://site?arg1=foo&arg2=bar and have the parser deal with that properly.
