Is it possible to "doSlideshow" combined with "info:..." ?

Dear readers.

Please forgive a newbie a stupid question, but I would like to use the "doSlideshow:true info:mypage.html" function in the "rev" to start a slideshow + bring up a comment window if "info" is clicked.

Now it seems that when I add the "info" part, the "play, next, previous" buttons disappear.

Does this imply that I cannot run "doSlideshow" and "info" at the same time ?

An example can be found at "http://www.maaijorn.com/index.php?page=2009Move".
The "Info..." is renamed to "Do you want to comment ?" and only the first image of the page is using both "info" and "doSlideshow". The rest is "doSlideshow" only - and works just fine.

The link I use to start-up "Floatbox" with is :

<a class="floatbox" href='2009 - Moving in/photos/01. Last pix from appartment.JPG' rev="doSlideshow:true group:pix info:floatbox/CommentForm.htm infoOptions:`theme:white width:400 height:185` infoText:`Do you want to comment ?`" title="01. Last pix from appartment" /><img src="2009 - Moving in/thumbs/01. Last pix from appartment.JPG" alt="01. Last pix from appartment"></a>

Would be glad for any hints to push me into the right direction.

Kind regards

J?rn.

PS: the "Comment Box" does not work yet. I will continue that part now :)

I love it when folks give me a link to look at it. It makes support so much easier and effective. Thanks.

The item you quoted is the only item on the page with a group name of "pix", so there's only one item in the set, and you can't do a slideshow of one item, nor navigate prev/next on a single item.

I notice the other items are grouped using rel='lyteshow[gallery]'. (Welcome to floatbox!) You should be able to get the new item grouped in with those old lytebox entries by changing your group name to group:[gallery] in the rev tag. Or remove the class name and group option from the new anchor and use the same rel attribute you've got on the other items. Or switch the syntax of all those other links. Either way, you need your grouping strings to match.
