Any luck with Lightwindow?

Has anyone had any luck in integrating Lightwindow (http://www.stickmanlabs.com/lightwindow/) with MODx? The box is showing up, animation and all, but with no content (and, yes, the link is valid). If not, can anyone recommend a modal box script that supports HTML and Flash and plays nice with MODx?

Thanks ahead of time!

Huh. Update:

Looks like it might be mod_rewrite. I tried it out on a local stage (which does not have mod_rewrite) and it works fine. Thoughts anyone? 

EDIT: Definitely mod_rewrite. I moved the page I was linking to to a different server, and it works fine now.

I have this working.... www.jamas.co.uk and click on the latest news .. more......

To get it to work you need to make sure you page is not rich text and copy and paste the links.

Hope this helps

please give me the example code

Ok here we go........

In the head of your page/template if you want to go mad with popups like me. I find the following order for the files works best.PS .

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/assets/templates/yoursite/lightwindow.css" type="text/css" media="screen"/>
<script src="/assets/templates/yoursite/js/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="/assets/templates/yoursite/js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/assets/templates/yoursite/js/lightwindow.js"></script>

Ok thats the easy part over with now lets say we want to create a slide show with 3 or 4 images........

Create your page but un-tick - RICH TEXT as I found posting lightwindow links in here they would be formatted differently and not work.

<a class="lightwindow page-options" title="My Site - Picture 1" rel="my Site[Slide Show Name]" href="assets/files/mypics/pic1.png" width="500" height="375">Click Here to view my slide show</a>
<a class="lightwindow hidden" title="My Site - Picture 2" rel="my Site[Slide Show Name]" href="assets/files/mypics/pic2.png" width="500" height="375"></a><a class="lightwindow hidden" title="My Site - Picture 3 - rel="my Site[Slide Show Name]" href="assets/files/mypics/pic3.png" width="500" height="375"></a>

Once you have done this. You muct logout of MODX in order to view the popup unless you use and alternative browser. I find this works best in crome or firefox as sometimes i.e will collapse the images.

I hope this is of some help.
