Flash Lightbox?
I am trying to imitate the Javascript Lightbox features onto Flash, however I am stuck on a few spots of actionscript coding.
- Constraining the Image to a Thumbnail.
As an quick preview to the images, I need to constrain or resize it. However, the filesize of the image remains equal to the full size of the image. Is there any way to reduce the filesize to the puny thumbnail number?
My current Ideas now is using the loadmovie syntax and ajusting the _x, _y scale.
Any help is appreciated!
Lightbox 2 (From Within Flash)
I'm trying to use Lightbox 2 from within flash, however obviously I can't setup a URL like this inside of flash...
[html]<a href="images/image-1.jpg" rel="lightbox[roadtrip]">image #1</a>[/html]
Does anyone know of a way to do this using Lightbox 2 and Flash 8 Pro?
Thanks

Lightbox In Flash.
I dunno if any of you are familliar with Lightbox at all? http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/
I'd like to be able to call this from Flash. It works well in an "<a>" tag in HTML.
As an example: <a href="gallerypics/Juniors2001.jpg" rel="lightbox" title="juniors 2001" >
where I can use a rel and title tag to call the necessary scripts.
Is there any way of including rel and title tags in flash along with the regular link?

Flash LightBox
Lokesh Dhakar the indian guy who wrote the revolutionary LIGHTBOX script is now famous through out the internet. Last day I even saw Apple.com using his script.
The script is really simple but awesome. Looks flash even though its JS and HTML.
Lately I was thinking about LightBox in Flash. Coz you dont need a lil bit of HTML if your site is entirely done in Flash
So I started digging and even though i saw lots of scripts online none gave out the script (This is one of them - Click here)
But I got something which could trigger a HTML on a Flash movie which I thought wasnt a bad idea as long it doesnt messes up main Flash movie.
http://www.codefidelity.com/blog/?p=16
This is the link to download the complete script for the same. (You need to upload the script to your server to see it working!)
http://www.codefidelity.com/blog/dow...telightbox.zip
If any one could do a completely FLASH LightBOX please do post your script out here.
Make sure to include the Slideshow option
Thanks.

Using LightBox 2.0 With FLASH
http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/
Does anyone know how to implement this functionality by making calls from within the SWF environment?
Using Lightbox In Flash
I'm having trouble using lightbox in flash. The readme says to add,
on(release) {
getURL("javascript:flashLightbox('path/to/imagejpg');");
}
to the button-- so I convert my image to a button and under actions I put that in there.. correct?
Then it says to add <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> to the html.
I do this, but it doesn't work at all.
I click the button and nothing happens. Any idea why?
Here's the full readme,
Quote: This is a very small and simple modification to Lightbox to allow you
to use the script in conjunction with a flash movie (for a sample of
this see (URL address blocked: See forum rules)).
I've added a new function flashLightBox() that can be called from within
any SWF file. I've left showLightbox() in thre as well, so the script
can still be used normally.
To call a lightbox image from flash, you would simply assign the
following actionscript to your button/movie clip:
on(release) {
getURL("javascript:flashLightbox('path/to/imagejpg');");
}
I've also modofied the default CSS to give the lightbox containers and
image a higher z-index than the flash movie.
Finally, to get the images to display on top of the movie, you will need
to add the "wmode" paramater to the mark-up for embedding the SWF movie:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="myMovie.swf" width="400" height="400">
<param name="movie" value="myMovie.swf" />
<!-- Your MUST add the 'wmode' paramater or your flash will appear
over top of your lightbox images! -->
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
</object>
This wasn't a difficult mod, but it did take me a few minutes to sort out,
since there were several files to change, so hopefully this will be of
use to someone.
Flash Behind Lightbox
Hi guys
I suppose many of you are using Lightbox or other versions/mods of it...
http://particletree.com/examples/lightbox/
Well, I have some flash movies, and when I show this lightbox, the flash movies keep always on top, I mean, the lightbox "layer" does not cover the flash movies...
Does any1 know an easy way to put the flash movies behind lightbox when this last is showing ?
Thanks

Flash Lightbox Problem
I've made a flash site that uses a "lightbox" effect to load the pages of the site, so click on a link, an overlay appears and the page loads in the center as an external swf.
Everything works fine, the only problem I'm having is that if you click anywhere within one of the external swf's it closes the lightbox. If the swf has buttons etc they are clickable and work as expected, but essentially each swf is acting as a huge close button (the overlay can be clicked anywhere to close the lightbox, but on the external swfs i only want the close button to close it, not anywhere).
Anyone got any ideas how to stop my swf's acting as giant buttons?
Thanks

Activating Lightbox 2 From Flash
hi guys, im wondering if it is possible to activate lightbox 2 from flash.
As extracted from the Lightbox tutorial, lightbox needs an <a href> tag with a rel="lightbox" attribute to be activated.
e.g.
Code:
<a href="images/image-1.jpg" rel="lightbox" title="my caption">image #1</a>
However I dun think it is possible to use getURL(); for this in flash right?
is there a work around for this? what i am aiming to do is have the user click on an image/mc in my flash
e.g.
Code:
my_mc.onRelease = function() { // Activate lightbox from here };
and have it call the light box up.
thanks a million in advance for anyone who is willing to help...
Lightbox Printing From Flash
Hi everyone... I could use a little help sorting this one out. Thanks in advance for anything that may work. This should only be a couple lines of code that I'm missing.
I have a simple flash file that I created... http://www.internextdesigns.com/Spir...uctPanels.html. In the live version the image thumbs don't spill out.. this is just a quick example page.
The issue is that I can't get the "pop-up" image to print. This is really just a javascript issue, but I thought someone here might know what to do to the Lightbox function.
From researching, I found an older version of Lightbox that prints ( http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/showthread.php?t=558191 ), but the javascript is different from the Flash lightbox that I used. ( Found Here )... and fails when I get to the print part. The button gets added just fine... and it calls the printImage function that I created... but I'm lost with how to make it print. I know it's only a few lines of code, but everything I try breaks.
Any ideas?? I really need to get this figured out... so any help is really appreciated. Thx
Code:
//In lightbox++.js I added the following lines of code in the appropriate places:
var fileBottomNavPrintImage = "images/printlabel.gif";// Print image
var objBottomNavPrintLink = document.createElement("a");
objBottomNavPrintLink.setAttribute('id','bottomNavPrint');
objBottomNavPrintLink.setAttribute('href','#');
objBottomNavPrintLink.onclick = function() { myLightbox.printImage(); return false; }
objBottomNav.appendChild(objBottomNavPrintLink);
var objBottomNavPrintImage = document.createElement("img");
objBottomNavPrintImage.setAttribute('src', fileBottomNavPrintImage);
objBottomNavPrintLink.appendChild(objBottomNavPrintImage);
// and the the function that is blank right now with commented out code that works in other lightbox versions:
//obviously there's a CSS sheet as well
printImage: function()
{
//event.stop();
//var objHead = $$('head')[0];
//objHead.appendChild(Builder.node('link',{id:'lightboxPrintSheet',media:'print', type:'text/css', href:'css/lightbox-print.css',rel:'stylesheet'}));
//window.print();
//setTimeout("$$('head')[0].removeChild($('lightboxPrintSheet'))", 2000);}).bind(this));

Flash Calling JS Lightbox On Mac
I am trying to put together a website www.stephen-daoud.co.uk and the gallery section uses a lightbox to show images. This works fine on my computer but firefox on my girlfriend's mac glitches horribly when it opens an image. Does this happen to anyone else and does anyone know how to fix this?

Activating Lightbox 2.0 From Flash
Hey guys,
I'm not sure if i should post this post here or at the JS forums but I hope you can help me out here.
Alright so here's the deal:
Im using the Lightbox 2.0 (http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/) And a flash movie in the same page. Now ive got this thumbnail slider in the flashmovie with thumbnails loaded from an xml file. As soon as i hit a thumbnail i want the Lightbox to show the full image of the thumbnail.
I've got everything set up and if i test if the Lightbox works with an html link it works perfectly:
HTML Code:
<a href = "path/to/image.jpg" rel="lightbox" title="my Title">Lightbox test</a>
Now my question is how do I call the same action in AS?
I understood the rel attribute refers to both the Lightbox JavaScript and the StyleSheet. But i really dont know how to set the rel attribute in flash.

Fullsize Flash & Lightbox
Hi Everyone,
I am trying to get lightbox to work on my fullsize flash site but I am having some difficulties.
The code I recieved from here:
http://blog.codefidelity.com/?p=16
works but it doesnt overlay the screen. It hides the flash behind a black box with no transparency and pushes the pop up image way down the screen. YOu have to scroll way down to see anything. Everything is all messed up.
Anyone know where I can find a good code for using lightbox on a fullsize flash site? Any ideas on how to fix this?

I NEED URGENT HELP !
Flash Lightbox Effect With As3
Hello,
I'm trying to create a light box effect using actionscript 3. When the user clicks on an image, I want a box to shoot out and expand from the center of the clicked image. I'm currently creating a light box and scaling it down to 0; then, when the user clicks on the image the following animation is invoked:
var heightTween:Tween = new Tween(lightBox, "scaleX", Elastic.easeOut, 0, 1, 1, true);
var widthTween:Tween = new Tween(lightBox, "scaleY", Elastic.easeOut, 0, 1, 1, true);
The problem is that the animation originates from the top left of the lightbox and not from the center. That is the top left corner remains fixed while the lightbox expands to the bottom right corner. I would like the lightbox to expand in all directions from the center. The lightbox is created dynamically so from what I've read so far I don't think I can set the transformation point.
It would seem to me that this would be a common problem but I have not found too much on this topic. Perhaps I'm searching for the wrong thing.
Thank you in advance for any help or direction
Also is it possible to fine-tune tween effects?
LightBox For Flash ...stumped
Ok so i've tried to get this to work but with no luck so maybe there is someone here who has actually used this. if so any chance you could help me to get it to work. the only part i really understand is what goes onto the button
on(release) {
getURL("javascript:flashLightbox('path/to/imagejpg','Your Caption');");
}
the D/L you get for Lightbox comes with a css file and a JS file and i'm sure the script somehow calls to them but not sure exactly how.
it's kind of hard to ask a straight forward question to this with out posting everything that comes in the txt file and i believe that would just be to long. so if you are familiar with Lightbox and might be able to help me plz let me know.
Flash Nav-bar Keeps Showing *ABOVE* Lightbox
I've searched the forum and found a few other threads that relate to this, but so far I haven't had any luck fixing my issue. Basically near the top of my page I have a flash navigation bar. Further down on the page I have a script (MyGallery) which makes use of Lightbox. When I click on an image in the gallery calling up the Lightbox code (or whatever it does) the image appears ontop of the page *except* for the flash navigation bar which is still on top of that.
I've set the parameter of the nav bar to "wmode" as "transparent" and I've tried creating and altering div tags to adjust the z-index to place the Lightbox object on top, but so far to no avail.
Here's (what I think to be) the applicable code from the page in question.
Code:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
.thumb_spacing {
margin-left: 20px;
}
img.thumbs {
border: 1px solid #aeaeae;
margin-right: 6px;

}
img.thumbs:hover {
border: 1px solid #FFFFFF;
}
-->
</style>

Lightbox Effect In Self Contained Flash File
Hi - can anyone help here?! I'm trying to get a similar effect to the lightbox++ effect but it's not going to be using any html. It's just going to be a self contained Projector App (on a Mac) and an EXE on the PC. It's basically a full screen presentation running from a CD.
I don't know if it's possible to just use that effect somehow OR if there is something similar that will do?

Make sense? Thanks in advance for any help.
Wanted Walkthrough For Lightbox In Flash Buttons
Hi all,
Since I seem to be rather dense in this subject I ask all of you for help!
I have a swf file which contains 5 buttons I would like to link these buttons to lightbox js 2. In plain I want to create
a photogallery but can't quite figure out where to place the code?
Do I place the code as an actionscript onto the button itself?
on(release) {
getURL("javascript:flashLightbox('path/to/imagejpg');");
}
Since I'm truly lost in oblivion regarding this matter, I put my faith in your wisedom.
Please give me a walkthrough how to this..
Best regards

Good Modal Window (Lightbox) Utility Easily Called From Flash?
Hi all. My question is pretty simple. Can anyone recommend a good modal utility/lightbox application that I can use on my site (non-flash) to display text or a form (not just a picture) with the standard greyed-out background that is relatively easy to call from Flash? Has anyone used a good one? I've done a bit of research and I'm frankly just tired of searching and tired of trying to write my own JavaScript, so a tutorial on how to do it would also be helpful. I'm not too concerned about it hiding the Flash underneath the effect, either. I really like Lokesh Dhakar's Lightbox, but I've been unsuccessful on integrating it with text so far. Can anyone offer any suggestions?
[CS3] Using Lightbox With Flash, To Play Flash
I'm building a flash that needs to launch lightbox, which I can do no problem thanks to this website:
http://blog.codefidelity.com/?p=16
What this site does not tell you, is how to launch a 'flash playing within lightbox' from flash. Does anyone have a way to do this or know how? I am willing to paypal some money over if someone can supply a working copy or at least help me with this. This one is really stumping me... Please help

[CS3,AS2] .swf In Lightbox?
Is it possible to display a swf inside of a Lightbox "pop-up"?
Or if not "Lightbox", is there a "Lightbox" for displaying Flash?
Thanks

Lightbox Help
I am trying to figure a way to call a lightbox in flash. I'm using the Lightbox Gone Wild Javascript which is very easy to use. But, I'm not sure how to call it in flash. I'm not that versed in actionscript so I'm not to sure where to start.
In html, it is called by th use of a class for example.
HTML Code:
<a href='test.html' class='lbOn'> Open Page </a>
Can someone give me an idea of how to call the target page in the lightbox. I'm not sure if it's a version of getURL() or ExternalInterface
If any one can help me. That would be great.
Thanks
Lightbox And AS3
Hi
I have been using lightbox to enlarge my images (http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox/) works fine with
AS2 but I can't get it working with AS3 and the new URL Request.
Can anyone see why:
Attach Code
var openImage:URLRequest = new URLRequest("javascript:flashLightbox('images/jenson.jpg','Jenson in Action');");
test_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onButtonClick);
function onButtonClick(event:MouseEvent):void
{
navigateToURL(openImage);
}
test_mc.buttonMode = true;
Lightbox JS
I was wondering if anybody else is having issues with Lightbox JS appearing above flash content? For some odd reason the SWF is half covering the pics in my lighbox.

Lightbox With AS3
Been using Lightbox (http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox/) to enlarge my images, works fine with AS2 but I just can't get it working with AS3.
Can you see anything wrong with the code:
Code:
var openImage:URLRequest = new URLRequest("javascript:flashLightbox('images/jenson.jpg','Jenson in Action');");
test_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onButtonClick);
function onButtonClick(event:MouseEvent):void
{
navigateToURL(openImage);
}
test_mc.buttonMode = true;
Lightbox With AS3
I'm trying to use lightbox from AS3, but I can't make it to work...
The code I have is:
Code:
_contenedor.but.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,callJS);
function callJS(event:MouseEvent):void {
ExternalInterface.call("PopFromFlash", "images/thumbs.jpg");
}
but it doesn't work. The screen goes black and that's it, it doesn't show any picture. I already have added params.allowscriptaccess = "always"; in the swfobject...
And this is the js function that calls the lightbox, which it's actually called because it popups the alert
<script type="text/javascript">
function PopFromFlash(url) {
var imgLink = document.createElement('a');
imgLink.setAttribute('href', url);
imgLink.setAttribute('rel','lightbox');
Lightbox.prototype.start(imgLink);
alert("Test function");
}
</script>
Any help will be really appreciated.

Lightbox With Flowlist
I am trying to call lightbox from flow list which uses xml you can see here at http://www.ahgrafx.com/interface.html I have found flashlightbox but i am confused at the fact that it uses xml so i dont know how to incorporate the code. thanks
Xml And Video Lightbox
okay - here is my question - i have a html page that uses a lightbox effect, when you click on a link.
i have also inserted a swf into the html file - the swf is an image wall effect that has thumbnails (called in from an .xml file) and if the thumbnail is clicked the swf opens a url. i want the link/jpg/video to open in the lightbox - and not a new window.
so - where do i change the code to make the flash/swf functions to open lightbox?
the link in html that works is this:
PHP Code:
<a href="gallery/spider-man3-trl3.mov" class="lightwindow page-options" params="lightwindow_width=640,lightwindow_height=320" ><strong>Quicktime Movie Example</strong> - 20MB Local File!</a>
in my .xml file the items look like this
PHP Code:
<thumbnail filename="096_3d_cylinder_box.jpg" url="http://images.apple.com/movies/dreamworks/transformers/transformers-tlr4_h.640.mov" target="_blank"
and the function for the thumbnail in my .fla is this:
PHP Code:
function p_click(me:MouseEvent) { var sp:Sprite = me.target as Sprite; var s_no:Number = parseInt(sp.name.slice(8,10)); navigateToURL(new URLRequest(url_list[s_no]), url_target_list[s_no]);}
which one of these needs adapting to make the mage/vid fire from the .swf?
Lightbox Question?
I am new at coding AS3 and I am having some trouble coding a button to open a image using lightbox. the following is my code...
ActionScript Code:
stop();
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.external.*;
import flash.net.navigateToURL;
Pic1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, glowpic1);
Pic1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, bigpic1);
Pic1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, unglowpic1);
function glowpic1(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay(2);
}
function bigpic1(eventObject:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL( new URLRequest("javascript:SWFDelegate('images/gallery/Pic_1.jpg','450','380','Strong')"));
}
function unglowpic1(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndPlay(6);
}
For some reason it will not work and use lightbox, it opens a new browser window and it is completely blank. Lightbox is setup correctly as coding a simple a href works. I have an example here. Any help would be nice. Thanks in advance.
