call a thickbox from the xml file

is this possible? i can get the thickbox to display using an ' a href' in html and get the box to display but i cannot get it to work from the xml in a pano. tried this and it does not work, i tried many variations and cannot call a thickbox from within a pano.

onclick="javascript:tb_show('test','home.html?keepThis=true&TB_iframe=true&height=500&width=800')"

http://www.virtualnorthland.com/beta/beta.html

upper left hand corner is a test button it calls my thickbox, sort of, it is missing the border and close button but it displays. how can I get the home plugin to load the same thing? here is the html link that works

<a href="home.html?placeValuesBeforeTB_=savedValues&TB_iframe=true&height=500&width=700&modal=true" title="test" class="thickbox">test</a>

this is interesting, and raises the question, we know that Krpano comunicates with Javascript, but is it both ways? i mean can we have a hotspot to call a javascript function on the same page?

know you can call java in some fashion. this link is calling a video from java to run in a window center screen. but i do not want to use this box. i can if i must but id like to call a thickbox. click the movie camera icon.

Vn2009

have you tried creating a function and then calling that function?


Source code

 
1

<plugin name="mechanics" url="../../images/video_icon2.png" align="leftcenter" x="10" y="0" keep="true" scale=".6" zorder="10" onhover="showtext(View a 30 sec video of the Clock Mechanism);" onclick="js(centerwindow(mechanics.html));"/>


as we can see from that xml, he is calling a function in JS.

so maybe create a function that opens the thickbox? and then call it from there

Source code

 
1
2
3
4

function openthick(url) {
// function to open thickbox 

}


I got no idea if thickbox supports opening from a JS call, but i know Greybox does

so you could use this (hopefully) in your XML:

Source code

 
1

onclick="js(GB_showCenter('Title', 'filetoopen.html'));


I have never tried it, but if Krpano is able to comunicate with JS then it should work

*smile*

EDIT:

oops stupid me, I see its possible to open thickbox from a JS call.

Source code

 
1

onclick="js(tb_show('test','home.html?keepThis=true&TB_iframe=true&height=500&width=800'));

I didn't test it at all.

but your example only opens a new window it does not popup the TB, or is it another page?


I will do a test using Greybox and Thickbox, see if it works and I will let you know :)

ok, I tested it.

http://www.vallartarestaurants.com/panoramas/krgm/m.php

click on the very first thumbnail

the problem seems to be the single quotes, try this

Source code

 
1
2
3

<action name="gbtest">
	js(GB_show(Google,http://www.google.com,500,800));
</action>


no quotes or single quotes.


in your case (untested by me, since I use greybox)

Source code

 
1

onclick="js(tb_show(test,home.html?keepThis=true&TB_iframe=true&height=500&width=800));



oh and be sure you have this param added to swfobject

so.addParam("wmode", "opaque");

:)

Shanti! many thank yous. that works perfectly. would you be willing to check the test link in the upper left hand corner? i opens the window but i do not get the close button i cant figure out why.

http://www.virtualnorthland.com/beta/beta.html

here is the link i used
<a href="home.html?placeValuesBeforeTB_=savedValues&TB_iframe=true&height=500&width=700&modal=true" title="test" class="thickbox">test</a>

i cant tell if it is reading the css but i think it is.

I think its the "modal=true" part, never used Thickbox before, but I saw the examples and the nodal windows didn't had the close button :)

Hi,

this is the important part in the html:

Source code

 
1

so.addParam("wmode","opaque");


without this setting a html element can't overlap the flash element (normally, but this depends also on the browser),

best regards,
Klaus

external page

I've been trying to use this to open an external site in a thickbox iframe. I can get the thickbox to work (although it does crash firefox) but I can't get an external site in there.

I had a look around the internet and found thisdescription of a solution

But I'm not sure how to implement it. I suppose in a plug-in.. would that work?
