problems with "Light Box" again...

[Golden Gate Geckos]

I have my "Available" and "Gallery" photos on my website with the Light-Box effect. I just got a new computer, and this effect is not working using IE, but works fine using Firefox. I figure it has something to do with Java scripts or CSS permissions on the IE browser? Any suggestions on how to remedy this?

Thanks!

Hi Marcia,
We are running 7.0.6 ie, and it is working. We normally run firefox, and of course, that always works!

Sounds like a javascript issue. I would download the latest version of java from Sun: http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp Restart IE after that, possibly the whole PC if that doesn't work.

I have always had problems getting lightbox to work, but all that I use is IE and couldn't figure out what was wrong, either. After reading this, perhaps I will try again! Is Firefox really that much better?

It is working on Firefox, and in my web editor, but not on my computer in IE. I am running IE 7.0, and I have downloaded the latest Java update.

... at least I know it's working for everyone else!

I used Firefox when IE7 first came out because I had issues with IE7 working for alot of websites I was going to. When IE7 got that first update it fixed the probs I had so I switched back to IE7. With Firefox I could never get most of the download plug-ins to work that I liked so I deleted it out of my computer. I tried 3 versions of it and had the same prob. I never really liked NetScape either. Maybe I am a Die-Hard IE person lol

Now with Lightbox, I never heard of it or know what it does. So looking at the mentioned pages I don't see anything different then I used to see. But the pic you click on comes out really nice and the page behind it fades really nice. Maybe that is how LightBox works. I don't know. Did I mention I am using IE7?

John, I am the same, I've never liked Netscape or Firefox and feel like some kind of diehard IE person too!!!

The Light Box is the effect of when you click on a thumbnail image, the large image pops up in a new window that you can customize, etc. It's the best effect for picture viewing in my opinion, kingsnake.com is set up with Light Box for veiwing images

ok cool then LightBox is works just fine with me because that is what I get on my screen.

It's working fine on my IE.

I'm not a fan of the light box effect. :-\ I like to compare geckos on the same site before I make my decision, and because you can't really pull up separate browsers per gecko, you have to copy/paste the different pictures in photoshop to compare them without having to close one box and open another and back and forth.
