Using J1.6 +matching Editor + JCK Modal and both are enabled

Editor seems to work fine however...
when invoking JTree Link and
I get the message
"Please note: this functionality requires Joomla's Modal library to be loaded in order for this functionality to work. Please click here to view our solution."
Then upon specifying "Popup Window" on the "target" tab, closing the window,clicking on the link always opens in a NEW window.

Why aren't I seeing a pop-up window?

Thx in advance

Hi beresbart,

Thank you for your post.


In order to enable the light-box feature one must set the 'Target' to 'LightBox/<frame>'. You should also be able to see that the 'modal' class is automatically added in the Classname field.

Please see below:

Once saved Joomla will look for the classname 'modal' which will intern call the light-box popup around the page you have liked too.

If you have done the above can you tell me if the 'modal' class is being added in the code. It should look something like this:



Thanks,

Code:

<a class="modal" href="index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=category&amp;id=19&amp;Itemid=444" rel="{handler: 'iframe' , size: {x:450, y:550}}" title="Joomla!">Link</a>

I, too, have just installed and activated the modal plugin for JCK. The lightbox is appearing over the site, BUT it is NOT sizing to my specified dimensions of 1000 wide by 800 tall. Instead it opens a 200x100 white, empty, blank box. I also see that there is NO rel={} per code above being added to my link.

Each time I edit the link, the [ ] Use Joomla modal box returns to unchecked. So, I check it again and the size defaults to 550 x 450, so I put them back to 1000 x 800 and click OK. But upon editing the link again, the checkbox is unchecked again... yada, yada.

After a couple more tries, I look at the page source and I see class="modal modal modal modal" for as many times as I edited the link, and still no rel={}. FAIL!

Help.

Hi chrusion,

We are not able to reproduce this issue so could you provide the following information?

1. Joomla! version,
2 Server type,
3. Editor and JCK Manager version,
4. Also would you be able to provide us with a screenshot of problem?
5. Would you be able to provide us with a error report? To do this you could use Firebug (which is a extensions for Firefox - addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1843/ ). Once installed would you: 1.) open up Firebug > 2.) Enabled the ‘Console’ Tab, 3.) visit the page where the error is occurring and 4.) paste the ‘error report’ when you received the error.
