a few bugs have been fix for multiBox

A bug with repeatedly open the same image has now been fixed. And if you don't have the title attribute, the controls will still show.

version 1.3.1

More multiBox updates

Here's a few...

1. New option: 'showControls'. This will turn off the controls.

2. New option: 'offset'. This is an object containing x and y offsets for the box relative to it being centered.

3. New option: 'fixedTop'. This options allows you to specify a fixed top position to all boxes to open to.

4. New option: 'openFromLink'. This says if the box should open from the link thats clicked or from the center of the window.

5. Bug fix: the problem with movies or music still playing when closed or moved to the next item is now fixed.

i've also added a hidden iframe to the box so it will go over dropdown menus etc in IE6 and i've also added one to the overlay script.

now at version 1.3

if there is anything else that people would like let me know.

Flash in multibox fixed

There was a small bug with using flash files (swf) in multiBox. This has now been fixed (version 1.2.1)

multiBox update - Safari iframe fix.

The multiBox script has been updated to include a fix for the iframe caching issue in Safari.

The problem was happening when you used the browser back button, then it didn't matter which links you clicked/iframes viewed it would always show the content for the first item.

Well the fix was to assign a dynamic id to the iframe each time it was called, therefore forcing the browser to treat it as different and not cache the src.

this fix is in version 1.2

googleDrive

A little project i've been working on is now live!

googleDrive is a little google maps mash up that allows you to drive a little car around on the maps.

I'm also planning a doing another version called googleRacer that will allow you to race on predefined circuits against the clock, for example the paris ringroad. I'm also thinking of doing this one with the sat view images instead.

comments and suggestions welcome.

opening links with imageMenu

To open links that are used in imageMenu, simply remove the onClick option:

var myMenu = new ImageMenu($$('#imageMenu a'),{
openWidth:310,
border:2
});

I've used the onClick option in my example code to demo some of the other features of the menu.

imageMenu update

The image menu script has been updated to fix a small bug. You probably won't notice it.

anyway its now at version 2.2
