shadowbox: a few questions.

If you don't know what Shadowbox is,.- it's like lightbox but I think it's better,.- I know there's a mod here that has lightbox included with several other things into one package so I figured someone here may be messing around with shadowbox.

Anyways, I've implemented shadowbox into my 3.8.1 vB and have been using BB code,.- working around html input on a forum post,.- and have been shadowboxing youtube video's, flv's, wmp's, .jpg's and such perfectly,.-

If anyone has vBulletin with shadowbox on it

or,...

know a few things about javascript or shadowbox itself,..

I'm wondering if there is a way to shadow certain links automatically instead of haveing to BBCode each link seperately? The shadowbox website is really bland/empty and the forum isn't really supportive (I don't think the author knows to much more then a couple of basic commands and the setup process)..

I would also like to know if anyone has a shadowbox plug-in.....for automatically embedding the code, try out the Auto Media Embedding mod here at these forums

Anyone know the shadowbox code tow ork with the Auto Media Embedding mod?

Right now I have to BB code whichever links I want to be shadowed, I would rather it be where all links that are posted are automatically shadowed. The links are defined by the ending extensions, ex. (http://www.spam.com/video.avi),..

1. Download "shadowbox-build-3.0b" from (HERE) and rename the main folder to "shadowbox".

2. You'll also need to download "JW FLV Player" from (HERE) and rename the main folder to "mediaplayer" and put the "mediaplayer" folder into "shadowbox/libraries" folder.

3. Upload the "shadowbox" folder to your forum, usually:

Code:

http://www.yoursite.com/forums/

4. In your forum go to "AdminCP> Styles & Templates> Style Manager>", and open your "header" template,..

Paste the following at the very top:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"

    "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">



<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://www.yoursite.com/forums/shadowbox/shadowbox.css">

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.yoursite.com/forums/shadowbox/shadowbox.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">

Shadowbox.init({

    players:    ["qt", "swf", "flv", "wmp", "iframe", "html"]

});

</script>

5. In your forum go to "AdminCP> Custom BB Codes> Add New BB Code>", (You'll be creating a total of 3 new BB Codes)....

(1.)
Title: SB Picture
BB Code Tag Name: sbp

Code:

<a href="{param}" rel="shadowbox">{param}</a>

Example: [sbp]Image URL[/sbp]

Button Image (Optional): You'll have to provide your own.
