Hi tiNE,

I'm sorry, while I probably can't answer your question I don't even understand it, and I suspect those who can give you the answers won't understand the question either. Can you please reword / clarify your question so we know what we're trying to answer? :D

hi..

tanx for the reply.. im still a student from phil, sory if u cant understand my first posted message.. hehe... :D

this is my problem.. i have this sample code for my index page..
<a href="coral_2003.jsp" TARGET="right"><img src="Coral2003/cover_thumbnail.jpg" />

<iframe src="coral_2003.jsp" name="right" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" width="850" height="350" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0"></iframe>

.. this one is for the content( that will be displayed in the iframe)
<a href="Coral2003/coral0301.jpg" rel="floatbox.pix" ><img src="Coral2003/coral0301.jpg" width="95" height="50" class="bordered" alt=""/></a>

.. the floatbox effects works properly... but it only appears in the area where the iframe was.. is it posible to display the image in the entire page/window.. not only in the area where i put the iframe?... if yes?.. would you help me?...

tanx a lot... :D

Ah I see. Have a look at http://floatboxjs.com/ifdemo.php and I think this shows that it can be done. Check out the source code of the page and you will hopefully be able to see what you need to do.

thank u very much... :D

Call me what you like, I've been called worse than that before! :D

iframes.css just applies some cosmetic style to the body and links, it's not needed for floatbox to work properly. It may help to post a link to your example. However I'm sure once some of the experts get on they'll be able to tell you exactly what you're doing wrong, I've never actually needed to use fb in an iframe so I have no experience with that.

If your floatbox include line references "framebox.js" then the floatbox display will be constrained to that iframe. If your include line(s) reference "floatbox.js" then the floatbox display will cover the whole browser window.

sir tiNE...

I can't help you because I have no understanding at all of what your problem is. But maybe if you re-checked the docs you would find something that helps?
