Posted: 28 May 2007 at 14:42 GMT
Hello,

I'm trying to use Thick Box to show some Panoramas, It seems fine on FireFox but not on I.E. (it opens in the bottom right corner)did I miss anything?

Hi Theo,

For me it's ok in FIrefox, but it crash in IE 7.0.5730.11 with Quicktime 7.1.6

Have you get a look at Greybox to show panoramas, i use it in my virtual visit of Limoges city in France (only in French for now) and i have no problem: www.limoges360.com

Hi globule22:

Now I switched to GreyBox as you suggested, but still it is fine in FireFox but does a full screen in I.E. ???????

Any idea?

Works fine in Firefox & Opera but i have the same crash in IE 7, so i think the problem is on you Quicktime file or webpage but not on the javascript you use to dusplay it.

You are right. Most likely I.E. doesn't like the combination of the (greyBox or ThickBox) with the web pages produced by plien pot!??

I like the way you did your web site, very nice work. How did you manage to combine both the VR detect script with the GreyBox script, I've been trying but with no success.

i have a php page for each place. In this page i integrate the grey box to open another php page dedicated to show each panorama.
In this pano page, i integrate the detectvr script and all works fine, just a problem on the doctype, i will try to fix it soon.

Crashed Opera first time I tried. After relaunching Opera, all went well although download time seemed a bit long.

It works on on IE7, but your panoramas are WAY to big for my monitor i have to use the scrollbars so view them, you might want to get a screen size detect Script and scale accordingly. other than that, it seems to work fine smile

I got rid of the Plienpot pages for now and using only QuickTime with size of 640X480.

Shantic: good advise, I'll try to get a screen size detect script, I hate scripts, but I guess it is a part of our pano life.
