January 29, 201016 yr Hi, I want to show a few images on my website e.g. to see an example x click here, and for a box to open as a layer on top of the website that will then close. Can anyone tell me what this is called so that I can search for something, or call anyone offer any help? Many thanks
January 29, 201016 yr Author Something like ... lytebox, lightbox, thickbox ... That's the daddy! Thank you.
January 29, 201016 yr Author All working perfect - how easy is that? However, the image is a bit grainy. The resolution is high - so how do you resolve this - do you know? thanks
January 29, 201016 yr Author Link? The page isn't ready, but if you want to look at what I mean: http://www.freerangefs.co.uk/introducerbusinessaids.html If you go down the page to: View example business card..." A few people are looking at this page and just getting a white page - any ideas what that could be? Is it something to do with the jscript? thank you

January 29, 201016 yr I was looking at this in another thread - the problem seems to be a compatibility with IE8 (it works in Firefox 3, which I normally use and also IE7)
January 29, 201016 yr Author I was looking at this in another thread - the problem seems to be a compatibility with IE8 (it works in Firefox 3, which I normally use and also IE7) I am using IE7 and it's grainy. Someone else is viewing in IE8 and it's crystal clear.
January 29, 201016 yr Author I just upgraded to IE8 and the image is clear now, but as you've said, the lytebox feature doesn't work as well. The background doesn't go dark and the CLOSE button isn't visible.

The background doesn't go dark and the CLOSE button isn't visible. Just updating the css and js files with the ones that this chap has posted and it works fine now. Maybe a little slower, but it does go black. http://nederveld.wordpress.com/2009/07/02/lytebox-and-internet-explorer-8/
January 29, 201016 yr Author Try using a different script. I always like slimbox... I'll have a look at that, thanks What's the collective term for this effect?
January 29, 201016 yr http://nederveld.wordpress.com/2009/07/02/lytebox-and-internet-explorer-8/ Good find MrsM I see he's tested it in other browsers as well ... After adding that code to the lytebox.js file, the LyteBox popup works properly in IE8 and continued working properly in all other tested browsers (IE7, Firefox 3.0.11, Safari 4.0, Chrome 2).
