Hi All,

After many searches and tearing out of hair I have finally got Lightbox working with VSD. A small achievement but a personal triumph for me.

Here's the site:

http://www.trcmcc.co.uk

What do you think? Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome.

Created using VSD, Photogallery & Form Builder.

If anyone needs any help please feel free to get in touch. I'm writing a guide as we speak so should have it online in the next few days.

Cheers

Hiya Marc,

Nice site, I do wonder though why it's showing all of the lightbox images on the page, or did you do that on purpose? It looks good that way, not saying it's wrong, just wondering if it was intentional.

If you look at my home page on my site you'll see how it "can" look for lightbox. You may already know this, but just in case you don't I wanted to make sure you were aware that it doesn't have to have all the images showing that are in the popup.

Each of the 4 images on my home page are different sections of code for each one. Each one shows an array of images that are in it's own little category. Feel free to check the source to see how it's setup.

Might not be how you want it, not saying it is, just making sure you're aware of what it can do outside of how you have it. It does look very good the way it is on your site :)

Hi Jo Ann,

Thanks for the reply. In this case showing all the iamges on the page is intentional as it's to show all the types of race classes without having to click on an image straight away.

I really appreciate your thoughts and will certainly implement them on further projects.

Cheers

You're welcome, and the site does look very nice the way it is, good job on getting the lightbox to work in VSD also, not always an easy task to figure out how to get outside things to work in some programs so kudos to you on that :)

okay, both sites look great! So, HOW DID YOU DO IT? i've been trying to do that for days, copying the html to notepad and using the html tool, adding flash which says the file is not there even though I added images, etc .Would appreciate learning from you all as to how to do this. Thanks so much. Sarah

By the way, I've given up on the eggs. I became brainwashed and was looking for eggs on all the websites I visited, even all my emails. I've got to get away from it. ha ha.

Thank you so much Scott. I have printed that info and will follow it step-by-step tomorrow. You'd think I would have seen that in my egg hunt, but was mainly looking for eggs. Thanks for the fun game. and thanks for all these wonderful programs to make websites. Sarah

You didn't find the egg on that page? That was a free-bee.... ;)

Your nose is growing by the second Scott :P
I know you believe you understand what you think I said...but I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not exactly what I meant.
