Hello everyone!
I am trying to get Colorbox working on my site and i just cant seem get it to work.
What i really need are the exact codes i need for each place of my site.

So what code should be unde edit>edit header>HeaderHTML? (i want elastic and no slideshow)

Also what code do i need to put as a link using the HTML tool on the tool bar?

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thank you,
Jimmy

Hiya Jimmy .. again ... lol

I replied on a post about this on the other thread that you commented on that Scott posted, you can see more info here on a different way to do this than colorbox if it's too difficult to do which it was for me.

I don't know how this would work with VSD, but here's what I would try:

Create some pages with VSD (or anything for that matter, even Notepad as long as you save it in .html extension and then back them up somewhere that you can experiment with them.

Use the program I have listed in the other thread and create your lightbox, then publish it to one of the pages you created. From there just get the code from that page and input that into VSD using the HTML Tool (I think that's the tool to use but check to be sure as I don't use VSD so not sure what tool inputs what code sorry).

Hope that helps and have fun with it :)

Umm ok lol, no problem, they are basically the same thing though and figured easier is always nice. To each their own though, good luck.
