    Hi there,
    I discovered something in context with Disqus, but that could be the reason why I didn't get lytebox working on my template:

    I embedded a file from another website using this code:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var disqus_iframe_css="http://staging.raddsigns.com/tumblr-comments/disqus-form.css";
    </script>

    This code is working and the changes are made in my blog

    When I copy the content of this disqus_form.css to a new file and upload this to my googlecode-page and embed this new file with the download link in the template, I don't get it working.

    Maybe that's something caused from googlecode, I don't know.
    I don't use a html-editor so fare, just my Windows-Editor and save the file as css. So fare it did work.

    I tried some free file hosting, but you normally get a download link where you have to press an extra button to start the download.

    I think, that's the reason why I didn't get lytebox and the other files working, maybe...

    Do you know any solution of this problem?

    Thx for your help

    I just LOVE the features you can get with a little coding. I have a fancy template that has a moving carousel of images, but wanted to add the lightbox feature - because it's a blog about photography and we'll want to be posting our photographs.

    As cool as the lightbox feature is--it is interfering with the moving carousel and I was wondering what hack I should use to get them to work together. I took out the code so the carousel would work again...I tried putting the code in several places to get them to work together, but now I'm thinking I need some code WRITTEN for them to play nicely together. Any thoughts? The blog is here. http://neophytephotographer.blogspot.com

    @LynnT,
    use lytebox.It doesn't normally conflict with other scripts.It also comes with a slideshow feature.
    Implementation details of lytebox are there in the previous posts on this thread..

    Wow, fantastic! Aneesh you should really make a post about this, it's great!

    colorsbyk, good find, I was wondering if it was possible to apply the tag automatically

    I just have a couple questions.

    1) The image is 800px but it loads smaller size in lytebox, how do I change that?

    2) How do I set up slide show if I already set all posts to individually pop up?

    p.s. Check out this post with lytebox: Halloween Babes

    anchors[i].setAttribute("rel", "lytebox");
    instead of this use
    anchors[i].setAttribute("rel", "lytebox[Myalbumname]"); to set it as a continous gallery
    or use
    anchors[i].setAttribute("rel", "lyteshow[MySlideshowname]"); to set it as a slideshow

    Ok, thanks:) Thats what I've been using but sometimes it lags at peak hours. Thought maybe you knew google hosting for free hack or something cause I tried google sites and google code but but css doesn't work there.

  11. Hi aneesh I've been using the original lightbox on my blog/site http://www.eyelittlemy.com and was annoyed because the images were shown too large and didnt fit on the screen. I then installed lytebox via a widget, and in the test posts that ive run, they dont enlarge enough to show any detail. How can I make lytebox expand the images to fit the screen but not overflow it? Many thanks in advance Rory

  12. Don't worry, I've worked it out... For lightbox the size of the original photos will determine their lightbox size... logical.
