I'm a little new to javascript as I mostly just fool around with CSS styling when developing web pages.
I ran into a problem trying to integrate Fancybox with Cloudzoom. I've been trying to follow the directions as directed here: http://blog.codestars.eu/2010/cloud-zoom-in-der-fancybox/
I'm able to get the effect to work perfectly except for one small error-- for some reason (all my images are in galleries for easier use scrolling through fancybox), the zoom only ever shows the first image in the series.
If someone could help me sort through this? Preview any of the galleries here: http://bit.ly/LaPzEH
Here's the tidbit I think is just slightly off - I think it has something to do with the href line in this code being off:
$j('a[rel=gallery]').fancybox({
padding: 0,
overlayColor: '#'+$j('#skin_color').val(),
transitionIn: 'fade',
transitionOut: 'fade',
overlayOpacity: .9,
onComplete : function(arg) {
$('#fancybox-img').wrap(
$('<a>')
.attr('href', $(arg[0]).attr('href'))
.addClass('cloud-zoom')
.attr('rel', "position: 'inside'")
);
$('.cloud-zoom').CloudZoom();
}
});
Any an all help is greatly appreciated!
Edit: Got it working by changing
$(arg[0]).attr('href')
to
this.href
As an aside (because I couldn't find many cloudzoom/fancybox threads) you can also change the position from inside to right/left etc. by editing the JS code for fancybox to have the fancybox-inner display as visible rather than hidden.
If the idea is to wrap the #fancybox-img selector with an anchor with class="cloud-zoom" and with the same href attribute of the anchor that opened fancybox like
<a href="{same as anchor}" class="cloud-zoom" rel="position: 'inside'">
<img id="fancybox-img" src="{big image}" alt=" " />
</a>
... so Cloud Zoom can work on the specific image, then I would re-write the onComplete callback like :
'onComplete' : function(){
$('#fancybox-img').wrap(
$('<a />')
.attr('href', this.href) // this.href gets the "href" of the current image
.addClass('cloud-zoom')
.attr('rel', "position: 'inside'")
); // wrap
$('.cloud-zoom').CloudZoom();
} // onComplete
(not idea what the heck onComplete : function(arg) would do but in any case it would be better to use 'onComplete' : function(currentArray, currentIndex) for the sake of standard fancybox code)
SIDE NOTES:
You are loading two versions of jQuery (1.4.2 and 1.7.1) when you actually need a single instance (ideally the latest version) to avoid unexpected errors.
You are using fancybox v1.3.0 ... it wouldn't hurt to upgrade at least to v1.3.4
Set all your fancybox API options between quotes like
"padding": 0, // it's OK 0 without quotes (integer and Boolean values go without them)
"overlayColor": '#'+$j('#skin_color').val(),
"transitionIn": 'fade',
"transitionOut": 'fade',
"overlayOpacity": .9,
"onComplete": ...etc
there are known issues (mostly with IE) because that (fancybox v1.3.x)

Please see this work in progress:
http://rawgit.com/jfix/cover-image-position/master/index.html
My goal is to allow drag and drop from the desktop onto this page, and following that to drag the image around as well as to resize it. You should be able to drop an image onto the page and to drag it around.
However, what doesn't work is the resizing of the image. There is no handle displayed at the frame around the image and it's impossible to resize it. No errors in the console.
The relevant code is here:
hdl.resizable({
aspectRatio: true,
autoHide: true,
alsoResize: "#coverimage",
handles: 'all',
resize: function(event, ui) {
cvr
.css('left', ui.position.left)
.css('top', ui.position.top);
}
});
where hdl is a short form for the $('#handler') in the assets/script.js file. I should note that this has been copied almost verbatim from this jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/nL5ew/ where it works fine, obviously.
I can't seem to find the problem with my code. Thank you for any eagle-eyed insights you may have.
Having inspected #RRR's JSFiddle, and comparing it line by line with my code, I ended up discovering that I was not including one, as it turns out, vital CSS file from the JQuery UI suite. This is the line that was missing:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.9.2/themes/base/jquery-ui.css">
In all fairness the correct solution was provided by #RRR, unfortunately not in a full-blown answer but just in a comment.
use this syntax for better result:
$(selector, context).resizable({option1: value1, option2: value2..... });
I have the following Fancybox declarations in my page:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".fancybox").fancybox().hover(function() {
$(this).click();
});
$("#fancybox-outer").fancybox().mouseleave( function() {
$("#fancybox-overlay").click();
});
});
</script>
I need to reduce the size of the image used by the modal box and I believe I can do that by setting the "autoDimensions", "width", and "height" options available with Fancybox, I just don't know how to integrate that with the hover function, since there isn't an option in Fancybox to specify a function for a hover event. (I hope this is making sense.)
Anyhow, does anyone know how I can modify the above javascript to control the width and height?
Thanks!
Sorry but images in fancybox don't use "autoDimensions", "width", and "height" API options. Those options are for ajax, iframe or inline content only.
Images in fancybox are displayed either, re-sized to fit into the viewport (when autoScale is set to true) or in their original size (when autoScale is set to false). If the original size is bigger than the height of the viewport, then you have to scroll down the parent page to see the whole image.
The only way you can re-size images in fancybox other than above is using jQuery css() API (which, I wouldn't advise ... it produces an odd behavior). You can call it using fancybox's callback option onComplete like:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".fancybox").fancybox({
'onComplete': function(){
$("#fancybox-outer, #fancybox-content").css({'width':300,'height':150});
}
}).hover(function() {
$(this).click();
});
$("#fancybox-outer").fancybox().mouseleave( function() {
$("#fancybox-overlay").click();
});
});
</script>
Note that options mentioned above are for fancybox v1.3.x.
Use it at your own risk.
you can always add code to document.ready to trigger every time. so just check for the event and resize.
or since the elements are hidden at first, you can get the event trigger using the show event
Check for the event onstart. onstart will be called right before attempting to load the content, and you can add your resize operations there.
I'm using jQuery 1.6 and the Slides plugin (slidesjs.com)
The slides have this format: <a><img></a>
The image of the first slide takes up to 6 seconds to load.
From the Chrome network panel I know that the image is being loaded twice, and one of the loads is what is taking so long.
The code that creates the slideshow is:
$('.rotator').slides({
preload: true,
play: 7000,
pause: 2500,
hoverPause: true
});
In the screenshot you'll see a reference to jquery-1.6.js # line 2206, which is:
attr: function( elem, name, value, pass ) {
...
elem.setAttribute( name, "" + value ); // <-- line 2206

Any ideas of what is happening and how can avoid this?
I would be interested in seeing a link to what you've built already. There's so many things that could be looked at for optimization such as:
Many HTTP requests
Image size
Amount, size, and position of external scripts on page
etc
If there's only a few images being displayed on page load you should make sure the other images don't try to download until the page is fully loaded, as you will be stealing available resources from higher priority elements.
I've searched high and low through this forum and thus far I don't see an answer. And, I think I beginning to lose my mind.
Could be I'm just missing it as I am NOT a programmer.
I am a visual designer that can usually install pre written code without to much
difficulty. And, indeed I have installed FancyBox and have it working well
except for one small problem which I desperately need help with.
I am working with a dynamically generated page written in ColdFusion.
Three divs on the page contain FancyBox links that open editing screens.
Once editing is complete and the user closes the FancyBox modal the changes
need to be reflected on the parent page.
Right, so I was able to find a solution that refreshes the entire page
'onClosed': function() {
parent.location.reload(true); }
});
How, oh how can I get just a single div to refresh "onClosed" as
apposed to the entire page??????
There a a couple of ways to do that.
One way is to get the content of the div with a function. This function will preform an ajax-call to get the content, say the function is called getcontent(); your syntax will be something like onClosed': function() { getcontent(); }
A better way to do this is to get the edited content and push this in the div. say you set a variable text with the content after the save of the editor, after that you can push this variable into the div with onClosed': function() { $('#divid').html(yourvar); }
I must say both ways are not easy to implement. Maybe if you show the code you currently having we can help you some more.
Right on Tim, well Fancybox uses jquery and loads it's own "library".
Each link that invokes fancybox has an id which is referred to like thus
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#link1").fancybox({
'titleShow' : false,
'width' : '80%',
'height' : '80%',
'autoScale' : false,
'transitionIn' : 'none',
'transitionOut' : 'none',
'type' : 'iframe',
'onClosed': function() {
parent.location.reload(true); }
});
});
</script>
On one of my content pages, I'm using the jCarousel and Fancybox JQuery plugins.
The problem is that only one of them works at a time, so I think there must be a conflict.
This is the code used:
<script src="js/jquery.jcarousel.min.js"></script>
<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery('.showcase').jcarousel({
start: 1
});
});
</script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.fancybox-form').attr("href", "contact.php").fancybox({
"width" : 400,
"height" : "90%",
"autoScale" : false,
"transitionIn" : "elastic",
"transitionOut" : "elastic",
"type" : "iframe"
});
});
</script>
Is there a conflict between the "jQuery(document).ready(function()" of the jcarousel script and the "$(document).ready(function()" of the fancybox script?
Any help on how to overcome the conflict (if this is the problem) would be appreciated.
Thanks, Mark.
It appears your problem is in the fact that jCarousel moves images in and out of view - causing a problem with fancybox. So the answer is that you cannot easily use both together (without re-writing the fancybox plug-in).
I would look at using a different carousel that already has the expand pop-up feature built-in.
On a side note, I would place all of the code in either
jQuery(document).ready(function()
or
$(document).ready(function()
for cleanliness.
