I'm getting an error in Internet Explorer 8

Hi, modal box is a part of joomla framework and is called by joomla methods. maybe you should check all the code which can call it on your site
By which action you get this problem?

I have this problem too...it is only happend when loading the phoca gallery, i am using the JAK lightbox so i don't need the modal.js inserted in the code...so i stripped it out of the code...still, i am getting a second error now:

Code: Select all

Message: Object doesn't support this property or method
Line: 24
Char: 3
Code: 0

I have looked at the code and it is becuase i have the following code when i load phoca gallery:

Code: Select all

 <script type="text/javascript">
 
		window.addEvent('domready', function() {
 
			SqueezeBox.initialize({});
 
			$$('a.modal-button').each(function(el) {
				el.addEvent('click', function(e) {
					new Event(e).stop();
					SqueezeBox.fromElement(el);
				});
			});
		});
  </script>

so the question is why this is loading and how can i remove this code? , what files are responsible for loading this code when phoca gallery is working?

Hi, modal box is a part of Joomla! so it can be loaded by other extensions (modules, template) too. but it is loaded in case e.g. if JAK is used as JAK doesn't support iframe loading, for some detail windows (info, map) you need some other detail window method.
