Snippet call & CSS issues (Was: What am I doing wrong?)

I did a search through the molio css files and didn’t find reference to anything save "thumbnail" - but not to any of the other MaxiGallery css references (e.g., .thumb).

I feel someone foolish here - I’m sure this is simple - but I’m not having any luck.

I just want my silly thumbnails to appear 3 to a line.

The contents of [*content*] placeholder comes from the content field of your document, eg. the one with the RTE. The issue with the thumbnails not going on to rows is a css thing.. there is something in Mollio template css that does override maxigallery css, trust me on this.. do you have "web developer" extension for firefox? if you use "outline > current element" and mouse over some thumbnail, you see where in the html dom it is, then look what in mollio css is styling it.. or try an extension called "css viewer" what shows what styles are set to that element..

Nothing in CSS is simple, I hate it..

I decided to try the pre-beta version and all things appear to layout (3/row) now as one might expect (including the display of thumbnails) EXCEPT...

lightboxv2 works in IE, but not in Firefox and my dropshadows aren’t really drop shadows anymore...but I have a functional useful layout.

What pre-beta version and what did you have before?

What happens in Firefox and what happens to the drop shadows? Can you give a link to the site?

It seems to affect both Firefox and IE in retrospect - if I click on the first image in the gallery - it just opens the image as a jpg (or other).

Going back and doing it again - same result.

If I select any other image, it opens fine in the lightbox environment.

This only happens the first run after the browser has been opened. After that, everything is fine with the first image, and others.

As for the drop shadows I’ve realized there is just a light grey border about 10 pixels away from the outer edge of the image - so I’m guessing that’s something in the css somewhere I just need to find and remove.

That can happen if you click the images before the javascript has loaded.. you could try the slimbox instead, it’s much lighter.

Yea, I’m not going to look any css issues, sorry.. you just have to find it yourself

Doze,

is there a way, in the lightboxv2 to save the images to disk (e.g., rightclick and save is disabled - perhaps another overlay link added that says - save)?

Thanks for all your help - as far as setup goes, I’m leaving be for now.

You can use HTML in the picture descriptions to make a link to save the image, but the descriptions are put in title attribute of the link and it won’t validate anymore if you have html in it.. But that’s the easy way to do it. You could do it in the maxigallery templates, that it would always add that save link to the description. Other option would be to edit the lightbox javascript to make the link, much more work.
