I have installed and activated floatbox-plus in the correct location as per instruction but for some reason it does not work.
I have tested shadowbox plug in and that works OK.

Any reason why floatbox should fail?

I am trying to use it to display panoramic photos in swf format.

The code I am using is the following:

<a class="floatbox" rev="width:700 height:500 scrolling:no" href="http://www.ciccio.com/Wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/Index.html" target="_blank">

<img src="http://www.ciccio.com/Wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/final-panoramaforskycorrect1-300x150.jpg" alt="final-panoramaforskycorrect1" title="final-panoramaforskycorrect1" width="300" height="150" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-70" /></a>


at the moment I am running locally so I cannot show you the pages on line yet, I hope you can suggest anything without checking that directly though

Thanks in advance

I have no affiliation with the floatbox-plus wordpress plugin, don't know what it does, and don't provide support for it.

But perhaps your plugin is using v3.24 of floatbox? If so, refer to the docs in your v3.24 download package rather than the online docs on this site. The docs here are always for the latest version. In older versions you need to use the rel attribute - rel="floatbox", instead of class="floatbox".

Ah!
That's a good starting point for me... I thought floatbox was for WEB development in general and floatbox-plus was for wordpress development...
Thanks for your input.

Talking now about floatbox (without plus :)) the problem here is that is the only plugin which does not show up in the list of possible plug in to activate... so I cannot even enable it and test it!
I switched to the classic wordpress skin but it is still not visible....
really bizarre because so far it never happened to me with any plugin....
I am using floatbox 3.51
