    Hello there. I adore your TopUp, but when I put it in my website, I get an error message stating: “Sorry, but the following error occured:
    TypeError: jQuery(”#top_up .tu_frame").resizable is not a function"

    How would I fix this?
    Please respond as soon as possible!

  2. 2. Paul Engel 15-07-2009 23:56:44

    Hi Die,

    Could you give me the URL of the webpage in which the error occurs? You can also mail me at paul.engel@holder.nl if you prefer ;)
    Either way, I will add an examples page this week which includes most of the TopUp features along with example code.

    Greetz,
    Paul.

  3. 3. Die 16-07-2009 16:13:46

    Everything is working fine now! It happened to be an error on my end of the line. Amazing code

  4. 4. joey 20-07-2009 09:31:11

    What is the function of the file “.DS_Store” ? I am having trouble uploading it with the top_up image files, as it appears to refer to a specific URL.

  5. 5. Paul Engel 20-07-2009 18:28:46

    Hi Joey,

    The “.DS_Store” file is Mac-specific, it is the equivalent of the “thumbs.db” in Windows. You can just ignore it.

    Greetz.

  6. 6. joey 21-07-2009 22:04:23

    Hi,

    Thank you for answering my question so quickly. Just one more question, if I may. Is it possible to initiate a TopUP display with a function call? If so, could you give a quick example. Your code is the best I have come across, and just what I have been looking for.

    Again thanks,
    Joe

  7. 7. joey 22-07-2009 11:43:14

    Hi,

    After reviewing your documentation page I finally figured out how to call overlay function. Again thanks for the great code! Joe
  8. 8. joey 23-07-2009 13:03:14

    Hi,

    Could you possibly shed some light on why the following function call works in Fire Fox and IE, but not in Safari?

    TopUp.display (‘http://google.com’, {title:‘google search,layout:’dashboard’,type:‘iframe’,width:800,height:400,modal:0})

    Thank you in advance for any help you can give.

    - Joe

  9. 9. Paul Engel 24-07-2009 21:40:18

    Hi Joey,

    It was a bug in TopUp. I have released version 1.5.5 which includes the fix.

    Greetz,
    Paul.

  10. 10. Jonathan 31-07-2009 15:35:17

    Hi

    I just wanted to say what a great bit of scripting and a very big thank you for your support in making it work with my site. It was exactly what I was looking for and its integration is so easy.

    Thanks once again.

    Jonathan

  11. 11. James 02-09-2009 14:29:27

    Hi Paul,

    Just wanted to say thankyou for putting together this great library and making it free to us all to use. Also a big thankyou for the excellent support you provided to me gratis when I was having a few small issues (which turned out to be environmental) when starting out with top-up. Once again, thanks for the excellent library, I’m sure to use it in many future projects.

    Cheers.

  12. 12. Paul Engel 03-09-2009 08:07:57

    No prob, James! Just spread the word about TopUp. :)

  13. 13. Brian 14-10-2009 22:41:24

    One of the very best lightbox/popup implementations around – and I’ve looked at all of them recently. Easy to use and great support too ;)

  14. 14. Christoph Lauer 18-10-2009 16:45:50

    I checked them all, but this here is seems to the easiest and best looking one…

    Thanks
    Paul

  15. 15. Den 23-10-2009 13:06:59

    Hi !

    I downloaded v1.5.7 and made a quick (and dirty) fix to the browser detection: I changed the == sign with >= for ie7 so it would also take ie8 into account.
    Otherwise I had an ugly fading-out black frame instead of the drop shadow around the thumbnails on click in IE8.

    Let aside that tiny glitch, you have done a great job and came up with a great solution!

    Thanks,
    Den

  16. 16. Paul Engel 23-10-2009 15:06:00

    Thanks for the fix, Den! I’ll put it in the next TopUp release :D

    Greetz,
    Paul.

  17. 17. Thomas Schmidt 30-10-2009 14:24:35

    Great code Paul. Thanks for your help.
    Realized that my style sheets were messing things up a bit.
    Great solution and support.

  18. 18. Alan 30-10-2009 16:27:01

    Seems to be a issue in displaying video content in IE8. No matter what I use I get a [object error] or a Invalid Argument. This even happens on the samples you have on the main webpage.

  19. 19. Alan 30-10-2009 16:39:15

    Seems to happen in IE7 too. I do not have IE6 to test that as well.
    I tried multiple computers as well.

  20. 20. Paul Engel 30-10-2009 16:55:51

    Hi Allen,

    I will take a look at it the coming days.

    Greetz,
    Paul.

  21. 21. hups 01-11-2009 21:31:16

  29. 29. Spyke 04-11-2009 21:57:23

    Is there any way to pass through flashvars? I decided to use a different FLV player.

  30. 30. Spyke 05-11-2009 19:36:13

    Me again! Thanks for your quick response. I found a way to use my other FLV player and now I have an IE issue. If you could, check it out: http://www.lycoming.edu/new/spyke/redesign/media/videos.asp

  31. 31. Den 06-11-2009 18:08:58

    @Spyke: not sure if it can solve your problem, but did you try to include top_up.js before your jQuery includes ?

  32. 32. JR 07-11-2009 10:35:39

    Hi Paul,

    Great code! For me, it would be first choice to use it on my site. I hope you solve the [object error] thing soon, because I have to compatible with IE6+

  33. 33. Paul Engel 07-11-2009 11:29:22

    Thanks for posting your comment, JR!

    As for your and Spyke’s problem: I’ve made nightly hours this week to fix the Flash issues in IE. I’m almost there, so please be patient as I will probably release a new version of TopUp later on today.

    @Den: I think I know which issue you refer to. I will also fix this today.

    Greetz,
    Paul.

  34. 34. lightgale 09-11-2009 19:17:20

    I tried using the latest TopUp hosted on your site, adding the class top_up to the link getting the error Die described on the first post. I replaced “latest” with 1.3.2 and I get no error, but the image opens is a new page, with no effect, just like there is no lightbox effect. Am I doing smth wrong?
    Thank you

  35. 35. lightgale 10-11-2009 19:28:56

    I deleted the line

    from the page where I wanted the TopUp js and now it works.
    keep up the good work Paul!

  36. 36. lightgale 10-11-2009 19:35:07

    sry. above I used some not allowed tags…
    it was the line with jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"

  37. 37. hups 11-11-2009 11:43:02

    hello where is the different

    top_up-pt
    top_up

    and top_up-min.js?

  38. 38. Paul Engel 11-11-2009 12:38:34

    Hi hups,

    The files are as follows:

    - top_up-pt.js is the Prototype version of TopUp (note: still alpha)
    - top_up.js is the uncompressed version of the jQuery TopUp
    - top_up-min.js is the compressed version of the jQuery TopUp (using YUI Compressor 2.4.2)

    Greetz,
    Paul.

  39. 39. hups 11-11-2009 13:29:21

    ok thanks have you seen that the closed buton by movies is in the background of the movie files ?

  40. 40. Spyke 11-11-2009 18:01:25

    Got the new version today! Sorta kinda fixed my IE problem I was having. Now check this out in IE. The first time you click any video it works fine. The second video you click you only see white where the video should be displayed yet you can still hear the audio. I appreciate any help!

    http://www.lycoming.edu/new/spyke/redesign/media/videos.asp

    PS: Awesome job on the new version!

  41. 41. Martin 20-11-2009 16:16:42

    Hi,

    I’m very impressed with your plugin but there’s just one thing that’s not working. If I try to display an image that’s larger than the view port, the image is resized even if I specifically set the height and width to be the dimensions of the image. Have you any plans to change this?

    Rgds,
    Martin

  42. 42. Hannes Weissensteiner 21-11-2009 21:35:46

    hey everyone,

    i’ve just tried EVERYTHING!!!! and nothing really worked for me and than i found TOPUP. JUST AMAZED guys. why? cause it even worked perfect in my IWEB page. i had a tiny question, sent an email and shortly after i just got a super nice answer. better “customer” service than products you pay for. THANKS PAUL!

  43. 43. Charles Hodgson 22-11-2009 20:02:45

    Hello Paul, Great work! I use greyBox, lightbox & mediabox in rapidweaver. Your image viewer looks much better. Any plans to make a snippet or stacks plugin for rapidweaver? Anyone using topUp with rapidweaver? I can’t seem to get it working.

    Regards, Charles
  44. 44. Neil Scott 23-11-2009 11:17:21

    Hi,

    Neat implementation. Do you have the ability with TopUp to pull in a specific div from an external page?

    Thanks,

    Neil

  45. 45. Slobodan Kovacevic 23-11-2009 13:50:28

    hello, i think you might wanna know that a file you set for a download is a little broken…

    it’s suppose to extract all the files but it just don’t,

    great work by the way

  46. 46. Thomas 23-11-2009 14:04:16

    Hi
    Thanks for a fantastic plugin!

    My flash knowledge is very limited. Do you know if there is a way to make the popup stay on top of the flash object shown at this page:

    http://(removethis)zogmatch.tempdom.com/

    (edit the link and click the “Test popup” link at the right side of the page)

    Thanks again

    Thomas

  47. 47. Canyon 23-11-2009 15:48:16

    This is very pretty… and useful. Thanks for that

  48. 48. eru 23-11-2009 18:43:18

    Do you have any examples where TopUp is integrated with Joomla?

  49. 49. Paul Engel 23-11-2009 20:44:33

    @Slobodan: which download do you mean?

  50. 50. Slobodan Kovacevic 23-11-2009 21:37:07

    The file for downloading “top up” beta,

    “latest.tar.gz” is the name of the file

    it won’t extract all files, i was truing on a few laptops because i thought that something is wrong with mu Windows 7 but it’s not… (Windows XP too)

    BTW make a donation botton more pritty and bigger and I will click it… hehehehe. It deserve to be clicked :) for this stuff thanks again, i will use it and put your URL on credits

  51. 51. Dave 23-11-2009 23:48:07

    Thank you for this Script :)

  52. 52. drifter 24-11-2009 00:44:16

    Hi there! i’m impressed with Your plugin as well, thank You:)

    but, there’s something.. i hardly need a ‘doNotResizeImage’ option, or some any way to force plugin to keep the original image size.. (i think i’m not the only one who need it, am i right, Martin? ;)

    anyway, thank You!

  53. 53. Jim 24-11-2009 09:55:07

    Is anyone else having performance issues in IE7? The popup takes a long time to load. It works great in firefox though :)

  54. 54. Sonny 24-11-2009 11:01:03

    Hi!
    great plugin you have made.

    But, we would be using the plugin on pages that already uses JQuery, and the include method you are using makes them collide.

    Is there an alternative way to run your scripts and manually include JQuery, UI and plugins that you are using ? .. like, simply do normal includes of all scripts directly from the HTML page.

    Thanks for a great tool!

  55. 55. Marco 24-11-2009 11:10:43

    Hi, I think it’s a great plugin, but i just qant to know if
    it’s possible to popup a div yet present in the same page; for example, referencing it with its “id”..

    Thanks, Marco

  56. 56. Steve Luchon 24-11-2009 19:37:14

    can i link top_up to my flickr account?

  57. 57. ConnyLo 25-11-2009 00:11:29

    Great Script!
    It works fine with my gallery and I love the smooth (apple) behaviour.

    But there I have problem with quicktime-movies, which will be shown with ugly scroll borders around (layout = quicklook).
    Any suggestions?

  58. 58. Dominique 25-11-2009 10:34:50

    Can you tell me how to use the HTML function of topup?
    there is no demo of that usage :)

  59. 59. omar 25-11-2009 17:21:00

    I downloaded the script many times because every time i want to uncompressed it fails in the 95% of the proggress. And the winrar shows a message that says "! E:\latest.tar.gz.tgz: Cannot create avascripts\top_up-min.js
    ! E:\latest.tar.gz.tgz: Cannot create d©

  60. 60. omar 25-11-2009 17:48:01

    Well. i just tried to decompress it in a linux system and the error is thge same.

    I think that an error occurred during the compression phase.

  61. 61. Paul Engel 25-11-2009 18:56:59

    @omar: that’s weird, I’ve just downloaded latest.tar.gz and unpacked it without a problem (note: using a Mac). I will take a look at it later today.

    @the rest waiting for a reply: I will try to find some time to do so. I’ll send you an e-mail and also post a comment on the site.

  62. 62. Lisa 25-11-2009 19:50:39

    Thanks Paul, I deleted the additional jquery script I had for Prototype because as you explained TopUp automatically includes jQuery so there is no reason to double up. it’s all working fine now in all browsers. Thanks again!

  63. 63. Ren 26-11-2009 11:13:56

    When I use the script in a page where a flash element is displayed GetTopUp is displayed below the flash element when I am testing it in Safari, Opera and Chrome. In FF & FF all is fine ..Already changed the Z-index in the top_up-min.js file but that didn’t changed anything..

  64. 64. Ren 26-11-2009 15:14:04

    @Thomas

    I had the same problem with displaying it over a flash movie..

    the trick is to add a Flash Parameter : wmode: “transparent” – and then TopUP will be displayed ABOVE the Flash movie..

  65. 65. Paola Mouro 27-11-2009 13:28:16

    Hello! First of all, thank you very much for sharing TopUp. It is exactly what I needed for my website. I’m using it to show a SWF and, when I click to close the video, after the SWF fades, it’s shadow and the close icon appear for a moment at the screen, but not in the middle of it, not close to the place where the the animation began, they appear close to the top left side of the browser. I’m trying to make them desappear behind the SWF, but I didn’t sucessed. Can you help me? I’m using this configuration to show in the trigger link: width = 650, height = 347, effect = appear, layout = dashboard

  66. 66. omar 27-11-2009 16:57:03

    It’s strange, but if i download the compressed file with chrome it show me this “latest.tar.gz.tgz” but if i download with firefox the ext is “latest.tar.gz” any way i used winrar and 7zip on windows and the command line gunzip and tar in linux for decompression and the error is the same.
    I will apreciate if some one can send me the file (uncompressed please) in a mail.
    Thank you.

  67. 67. omar 27-11-2009 17:14:23

    Ok, at least i could decompress the file, it was solved by downloading the file in a linux system and uncompressing it there.
    Perhaps it’s something related to my system.

  68. 68. Thomas 28-11-2009 00:38:53

    @64. Ren :

    Thanks – works like a charm!

  69. 69. Oliver Gibson 28-11-2009 12:13:14

    Hi there,

    I absolutely love your modal window script, and your website itself is beautiful :)

    SO anyway, i’ve been trying to get modal windows working properly for the last week or so, on and off, at the moment I have submodal going, but it doesnt work properly on IE. I’ve got yours working like a charm, and i t looks great. I especially love being able to just add the tag to links to turn them into topups!

    One problem that im having is getting the modal window to only display once..I’m using it partly as a “pop up on load” sign up newsletter form…please could you help me out with the code required to get it to only come up once? I’ve looked into including jquery cookies scripts, and i’m getting nowhere :( Cheers

  70. 70. ilker 28-11-2009 17:31:15

    Hi Paul,

    first of all this is one of the best Popup solution maybe around. So i thank you for your great effort.

    I wonder, is there anyway to show the popup on page load. And is there any cookie code to do that for once in a day?

    Thanks in advance.
    Ilker OGUZ

  71. 71. Angela Hayden 28-11-2009 17:38:02

    Do I need to download prototype to use TopUp?

  72. 72. Jo 30-11-2009 08:26:15

    First af all, thanks for your great job. I have tested your script on a page where I use thickbox. With the easiest setup, I got a box with scroll with FF and athe embed flash was not in the center. With IE8 the auto size was completely wrong and again scroll. My problem with thickbox, lightbox and your script is when the page is long to load if you click quickly you don’t have a box only the html page. This is a big problem with ligthbox scripts used in a page with for example some external ads that take time to load.
    If you have a solution, thanks to let me know.
    Best regards

  73. 73. Haser 01-12-2009 03:07:12

    Hi I get the following error:
    Cannot Copy File: Cannot read from source or disk
    when I try to unpack the tar file. Is there a way around this as I’d like to use the script.

  74. 74. Andreas 01-12-2009 15:02:05

    I’m going nuts on this…
    I have a little peace of html contained in a div on my page, it’s hidden with display:none. How can I make this appear in your popup? What function to call? Can you give me an example?

  75. 75. Andreas 01-12-2009 15:03:41

    I have jquery loaded already so I don’t want TopUp to load it again.

  76. 76. Muhammad Usman 02-12-2009 11:02:05

    Hi, I have been using lightbox-0.5 since I saw your TopUp. Hats off to you, wonderful library. I am having a difficulty, I need to manually trigger topup and it is giving me error. The problem is that my images are loaded in a div after page is loaded using ajax. Now in this ajax loaded images I am applying topup, class=“top_up”, and it is not working. I have put a static link and that is working but the images in the div which are dynamically loaded are not working with topUp. I have used TopUp.init(); but it is not working as well.. no error is shown only thing is that the image is loaded without topUp aesthetics. Please help

  77. 77. Sebastian K. 02-12-2009 18:37:01

    Hi,
    i don’t know if anyone else solve the problem…

    When i open the Box, the IE7 lags, and the Box needs up to 20 seconds to display correctly.

    Does anyone have a solution?

  78. 78. omar 02-12-2009 19:02:45

    I’ve started to use topup and i think it’s great. Right now i’m implementing this (as example) in some forms, but some questions have arrised, i want to use the “onclose” property and i’m configuring my form in this way but it does not work, can some one help me, thank you.

  79. 79. omar 02-12-2009 19:05:35

    Sorry, the code wasn’t displayed in my previus comment.

  80. 80. Clement Joubert 02-12-2009 19:08:53

    Hello, there is a problem with images included in Rails application with a custom URL based on the file’s timestamp.

    For instance : http://site.com/images/123.png?123456231

    Top Up doesn’t expect an image with that kind of link, and displays the file as text.

    I believe this could be fixed with a regular expression used to before determining the file type /[?].*//g

    Thanks in advance for the fix :-)
    And BRAVO for TopUp !

  81. 81. Jérôme 04-12-2009 03:12:40

    Great library, I like!

    One thing to consider, though, is that you have to pay attention to your own CSS class names for your elements. It took me an hour to find out that TopUp was bound to some of my elements because I gave them a class name with a “_image” in it :).

    To complete the list: avoid class names that include the following:

    _db, _ql, _image, _html, _dom, _iframe, _ajax, _script

    Otherwise you will get a “Type error: reference is undefined” (top_up.js) or “Type error: U is undefined” (top_up-min.js).

    I hope, Google indexes my comment soon, I didn’t find any reference to this problem :).

    Except that, great tool! Thank you!

    Hi,
    first of all, thanks a lot for this plugin, it works like a charm.
    But there’s one little problem which took me about 2 hours of work to figure it out, so I just wanted to point that out so that others can fix that a little bit faster gg

    I use the jQuery UI in my project as well and your JS is imported afterwards … unfortunately I then got an error when I used the “draggable” option of the UI-framework.
    As I found out, you “overwrite” the function draggable and so the UI-function doesn’t work any more.
    When I renamed all occurencies of “draggable” in your JS to “draggalbeTopUp” it worked again!!!

    Hope that helps, would be great if you could include that fix to future versions of your great script!

    Thanks again and have a nice day!

    hello,
    i wondering i have the type auto but topup is always showing the loading gif ?

    what is this is auto not automatic ?

    what does auto do in the type ?

  84. 84. Massimo 07-12-2009 16:05:11

    Hi Paul, thank you for this great tool, i love it.
    I put on my site to show a flv video, but i have a little problem that can’t resolve. I put this toptions=“type=flashvideo, width=640, height=360, resizable=0”.
    The video opens, but i see always a vertical and horizontal toolbar in the popup, but the dimension are right (640×360), where i am wrong?

    thanks, have a nice day

  85. 85. Marc 07-12-2009 20:59:42

    Will this also work with iframes? I have a website with iframes and within the iframe there will be images for this topup.

  86. 86. Ed 08-12-2009 00:59:59

    Hi, have not implemented the script yet, but very excited about it.
    For those who are having the issue with (WinRar in my case on PC) not being able to extract the archive correctly, I was able to do so by sending it to a MAC, extracting, then re-zipping (.zip), then sending back to my PC. Lol. Well, maybe just having this download as a simple zip to start would be a better idea.

  87. 87. jules 08-12-2009 18:40:26

    Dear Paul,

    if it would work for me ;-( this script will make my day. Unfortunetley after doing a basic integration I receive the following popup

    Sorry, but the following error occured:

    TypeError: jQuery(“#top_up .te_frame”).resizable is not a function

    Is there a problem when running a second function also running jquery on the same page?

    Currently I’m trying to load a raw html, with above result.

    Cheers!!!

  88. 88. M 08-12-2009 20:50:19

    This is really really really slow … I’m on broadband and it still takes over 10 seconds to load … why ?

  89. 89. David 08-12-2009 23:14:26

    I just wanna say: Thank you for this beautiful piece of art.

  90. 90. Tim 09-12-2009 22:14:54

    Is it possible to call TopUp programmatically?

    For example, say at a certain point in my script I want to automatically display a TopUp without any input from the user, something like:

    TopUp.display(“http://www.google.com”);

    I am not able to get this to work. Thanks!

  91. 91. Paul Engel 09-12-2009 22:20:17

    @Tim: you also need to specify the type toption (in this case ‘iframe’) as the auto-determination of ‘http://www.google.com’ is ‘ajax’. In short:

    TopUp.display(‘http://www.google.com’, {type: ’iframe’})

    Greets,
    Paul.

  92. 92. Tim 09-12-2009 22:34:00

    @Paul: Worked like a charm! Terrific script. Thanks!

  93. 93. Tim 09-12-2009 22:45:33

    For anyone else needing to call this progammatically… If you’re calling this immediately upon page load like I was, you’ll need to wrap it in something like this:

    $(document).ready(function() {
    TopUp.display(“http://www.google.com”, { type : ‘iframe’ });
    });

    or…

    TopUp.ready(function() {
    TopUp.display(“http://www.google.com”, { type : ‘iframe’ });
    });

  94. 94. Paul Engel 09-12-2009 22:55:27

    @tim: This isn’t necessary in the next release. As TopUp.display() and TopUp.displayTopUp() will do it themselves.

  95. 95. Arun 11-12-2009 14:35:07

    Hi,
    I am using TopUp in an iFrame environment. I use TopUp in a php page and I want to display the php page in another website’s html page via iFrame.

    While doing so and when I click the link of the php page from the iframe window, the pop up box opens within the iframe window.

    But I want the pop up content to open in the parent window of the HTML page that contains the iframe instead of opening within the iFrame window.

    What should I do for that?

    Help please…

  96. 96. Jim 11-12-2009 19:24:59

    Hi…
    this looks great. the implementation of iframe was extreamly simple and effective.

    i was not able to locate any example code on how to implement ajax,javascript,html, or dom.

    have i missed something?

    thanks and good work
    Jim

  99. 99. Michal 13-12-2009 16:40:48

    Hi Eric,

    Would it be posible to create a autostart option? So that when you have html in the topup and the page loads, it would automatically show the topup dialogue.

    If not, what would be a way to auto show the topup with html on pageload?

    Thanks, bedankt.

    Michal

  100. 100. Michal 13-12-2009 16:41:56

    i think post 93 and 94 have awnsered my question.

  101. 101. Michal 13-12-2009 16:54:50

    When using:
    TopUp.display(‘http://www.google.com’, {type: ’iframe’})

    I get a alert with:
    Sorry, but the following error occured:
    TypeError: jQuery(“.te_frame,.te_content”).unlockDimensions is not a function

  102. 102. paolo 14-12-2009 14:52:17

    Hi, i’m using your script and it works very well, but i have a little problem. when i open an image the first time it is not centered: the second time instead it’s perfectly centered. Can u help me?

  103. 103. Karin 16-12-2009 08:43:21

    Hello Paul,

    thanks for the nice script! I’d like to use it in offline-mode, i.e. having the whole page content on a CDROM (which, unfortunately, on different systems mounts in different places). I ‘d also like to have my videos local, e.g. in a directory ’videos’ relative to the top-level directory where TopUp resides. For the videos to be found by the player, I have to specify the absolute path (which will be different from one computer to the other) instead of the releative path to the video. Is there a quick fix for this?

    Thanks, Karin

  104. 104. Michal 16-12-2009 12:00:34

    how do i display html content???

    When i use:
    href=“#aanmelden” toptions=“type = html, effect = fade, resizable = 0”

    the html i am calling shows on the page, when i click the link the html content dissapears, when i click again on the link it shows in the topup.

    When i give #aanmelden display:none; it does not show in the content anymore (offcourse), but when i click the link to call the html content it does not show in the topup either…

  105. 105. Michal 16-12-2009 12:51:58

    ps, and how to include multiple html content options.

    link 1 > opens #one
    link 2 > opens #two
    link 3 > opens #tree

    can’t get it to work.

  106. 106. Michal 16-12-2009 23:49:33

    When adding the class top_up to a html link for opening html content the following error returns on clicking the link

    TypeError: jQuery(“#top_up”).center is not a function

  107. 107. CAiNE 17-12-2009 02:42:23

    iframe is only solution?? not dom or html?? :(

  108. 108. Paul Engel 17-12-2009 09:45:36

    @all: HTML and DOM examples will be available tonight.

  109. 109. TikkTakk-Aicon 17-12-2009 20:17:42

    using:
    a href=“…” toptions=“effect=clip,shaded=1,onclose=function(){alert(1);}”

    triggers an error with the onclose on IE. Is your documentation misleading? To clarify, the documentation leads you to believe that you can use the onclose in that manner. Is that correct or is there a bug in your code?

  110. 110. Michal 18-12-2009 13:50:52

    How are the examples going?

  111. 111. Karin 18-12-2009 15:53:12

    Follow-Up to #103:

    It works when the path to the directory containing the FLV-videos is specified relative to the ‘players’ directory. This was tested on Mac OS – have to re-test on Win and Linux …

  112. 112. Michal 19-12-2009 01:43:35

    Script looked nice, but there are enough lightbox scripts out there which work and are longer around, so they dont have these kind of small issues.

    Thanks for your effort anyway.

  113. 113. Danny 20-12-2009 22:51:15

    Could you give us the links for the inline html dom examples? I keep getting a Typeerror dialog everytime i click my link!

  114. 114. Danny 20-12-2009 22:52:30

    BTW- You could use some spam captcha!!

    =/

  115. 115. Paul Engel 21-12-2009 01:23:26

    @Danny and the rest: I’ve released TopUp 1.6.3 and I’ve also added an example for inline DOM elements on the homepage.

    Great tool. Tweaking it for our use.
    Question: We have some training videos we’re trying to stream that are 1024 × 768. and .flv. When we use th tool, the control bar on the bottom disappears. Had any issues with media of this size?

    Hey bro, topup doesnt work on Safari.
    I wanted to say this since a long time, but dint get time.
    So reporting it today.

    Please fx it.

  118. 118. Karin 22-12-2009 06:22:55

    Regarding #117, I tested everything besides ‘Windows Media’ on Mac OS X and it looked quite good. My configuration: Safari 4.0.4 (6531.21.10) / Mac OS X Version 10.6.2 (10C540)

    On Windows with Safari 3.0.4 (523.15), the small close buttons does not show up. Pressing the ‘ESC’ key, however, closes the pop-up window. I did not test with a newer version of Safari, because I want to keep that version for regression tests.

    Greetings, Karin

  119. 119. Christoffer 22-12-2009 14:15:38

    You should really add live support instead of using bind as it won’t work on nodes that aren’t in the DOM from start. I did a quick change in top-up.js on line 214 (changed ‘bind’ to ‘live’) and it seems to work fine, although I haven’t done much testing. I’m new to the plugin so I’m not sure if it’s been covered before or if you’ already got something in planning.

  120. 120. Paul Engel 22-12-2009 18:52:14

    @Christoffer: You are right, you have to call TopUp.rebind() at the moment. But I’ll fix it in the next release by replacing bind() with live(). I forgot to include this, thanks.

  121. 121. Karin 23-12-2009 08:56:47

    Follow-Up to #117 & #118:

    Tested with Safari 4.0.4 (531.21.10) on Windows XP Home. The close button now works …

    Greetings, Karin

  122. 122. Paul Engel 23-12-2009 10:34:02

    @Karin: thanks for your info that it’s solved (although I haven’t paid attention to that yet)
    @Soam: is it solved on your end? if not, could you be more specific?

  123. 123. Sindre Sorhus 23-12-2009 17:00:41

    Hi, great plugin :D

    - Can we get a public function to set a new width and height of an already opened window, when set it the topup window will transition into the new size. Useful for ajax and iframe type.

    - More jQuery like init. Like:
    $(‘a.image’).topup({
    type:‘image’
    });
    See Colorbox docs for what I mean: http://colorpowered.com/colorbox/
    Also see some of the other option colorbox have, maybe take some inspiration from it :D

    - It would be great to have a slideshow function.

    - Have you tried the Google Closure Compiler, in many cases it compresses better than YUI?

    Looking forward to hearing from you :)

    -

    hello grat greatest !! supi is this and the dom is great .

    i wish me that you can give a zip file with external style and js with jquerry in a extra js file is better for developers.

    Hi guys,
    I’m trying to use this for an auto pop-up for lead generation to get people to enter their info at http://www.eugeneg.com

    Paul, do I just put in the following inside the head…

    and put this code inside the body:

    Any help is appreciated, thanks a lot.

  126. 126. hups 26-12-2009 22:36:28

    hello

    how can i oben this href in topup
    href=“javascript:videoOverlay(‘zbPjiJ-4jMA’,‘videoBar-bar’);”

    there is generatet i cant change it what type in topup is it ??

  127. 127. Leo Julius 27-12-2009 11:19:07

    G’day Paul,

    Firstly, thanks very much for making this code available. It’s a very elegant module.

    In IE8 (at least using our vanilla testing configuration) we’re seeing an issue with the back shading within your application.

    As a really quick demonstration, if you click on your own front page link which contains “Want to keep track of new releases?”, the problem becomes evident. If you scroll down in IE8 after the shading appears, the portion below the viewport is not shaded and is active for the end user.

    As I’m typing this entry now on IE8, the back shaded “Subscribe as TopUp tracker” box is still up on a shaded section which fills only the samall top section of the page.

    At our end we just kludged a workaround by modifying the css height within top_up.js and we’re fine.

    Thanks again.

  128. 128. classiclori 27-12-2009 17:36:11

    great tools……but i can not use downloading version completely……can you fix that version

  129. 129. hups 27-12-2009 17:44:40

    hello one little mistake in dom element when the hiddenelement is very long the dom is not going to the button it finished at the desktop height when is longe there is outside the dom element.

  130. 130. Paul Engel 29-12-2009 13:16:21

    @Sindre: I’ll implement the more jQuery method in the next release. As for your other remarks, I’ll have to put more time into it. More news follows.

    @#125: putting ‘TopUp.displayTopUp(’the correct CSS selector of your TopUp element’)’ on the page (it doesn’t matter where you put it!) displays the TopUp on page load. Now isn’t that easy?

    @Leo: I’ve planned on tweaking IE7 & IE8 and making the transitions slicker.

    @hups & classiclori: Could you be more specific?

  131. 131. Jorge Quan 29-12-2009 21:23:39

    I love topup from the moment I saw it, I’m a mac / apple lover and the style of windows topup fascinates me, is easily adjusted for designers like me who started to learn ajax, Thanks Paul for the script and your work.

  132. 132. hups 30-12-2009 13:17:26

    hello,
    i mean this:
    when i have already jquerry loaded i dont loadet this with topup.

  133. 133. hups 30-12-2009 13:20:01

    second.

    when i have a long inline div (longer than the browser window) the background of the dom element window is to short he finishd by the bowser window height

    sorry for bad english

    could you please post a short example of using TopUp with ajax?
    I try this one:
    a href=“script.php” toptions=" width = 300, type = ajax, .."
    but got only error message: TypeError: options.content is null

  136. 136. Connor 03-01-2010 06:40:42

    Wow this worked great! I love how you can keep your HTML so clean :) I’m using it on http://connorsmithphoto.com

  137. 137. Norbert Haigermoser 03-01-2010 20:56:15

    Is there any special way of including the style.css?
    The css effects (shadow, border close button image…) are not working.
    The css is not mentioned in the documentation so i included the style.css which comes with the install-zipfile (placed all images as described in install docu).
    Everything except the style of the images is working.
    Any hint?

  138. 138. Paul Engel 03-01-2010 21:07:36

    @Norbert: I presume you are hosting TopUp yourself, right? It seems like you’ll need to adjust the TopUp.images_path variable which has to point to the top_up images directory. You can use Firebug and type ‘TopUp.host + TopUp.images_path’ in your console to see the current location. Good luck.

  139. 139. Ammar 03-01-2010 21:33:00

  140. 140. Caidel 04-01-2010 13:34:02

    Hello. Great script you have here, but I would like to ask: It is possible to get video (to be exact, I’m trying to open up Youtube videos) opened via addParams()? (or maybe via classes?). Only way it works for me so far is if I use the example from homepage and use toptions, but I would prefer to do it through addParams. Is there any example on that?

    In best case scenario, through A tag with thumbimage in it, but I can also cope with input button with image on background :) Thanks a lot for your reply.

  142. 142. Denmark 06-01-2010 23:31:30

    Hi there, love the script, great work!

    I am unfortunately getting the " jQuery(“#top_up .te_frame”).resizable" [undefined] is not a function. " Error with the script. I am also using a jquery.min.tools.js script for tool tips, both scripts work fine by themselves, but as soon as I add them both, I get that error. I’ve tried a few different combinations on adding them, but I am getting nowhere fast. Please get back to me.

  143. 143. Setvir 08-01-2010 21:42:05

    I am getting a strange thing on your example page. On Firefox 3.0.17 when I open any of your examples it is already in dragable mode… Just wanted you to know…

  144. 144. Anger 11-01-2010 23:24:32

    Scrollbars everywhere! Why isn’t there an option to turn scrollbars off? It’s a basic javascript library function.

    Is it possible to get the video’s fullscreen using the video players controls?
    Even youtube can’t go fullscreen. Kind of a bummer.

  146. 146. Paul Engel 12-01-2010 07:32:49

    @Anger: which function is that? and can you be more specific about when (or where) I can reproduce it?
    @jqueryO: just enabled viewing flash content fullscreen in a new release :)

  147. 147. Reinhard Hutter 12-01-2010 21:18:00

    Hi,
    first of all, I’ve been taking a detailed look at several jQuery lightbox clones, and TopUp has the most (and useful!) features and by far the biggest WOW !!!! factor of all of them. You have done really great work here!

    I’ve to replace an old lightbox with an i-frame and flash capable one on mulitple sites, and I already have included jQuery and some parts of jQuery UI on my sites. I want to host the files myself, but I don’t want all the JS files to be included twice (my file names and directory structure is different than the one in your zip file).

    Is there a “stand-alone TopUp”, that allows me to to include JS files manually to prevet double inclusions? Which parts of jQuery UI beyond core are needed by TopUp?

    Best regards,
    Reinhard

    P.S.: I’d suggest removing the “overlayClose”-option from the “post comment”-box, I just had to type all this text twice because of a wrong click.

  148. 148. Sebastian Graz 13-01-2010 16:48:35

    My god this has to be the best lightbox out there, but what impressed me the most was the ease of installation. It literally took me just a few seconds to apply this to my website. I also love the aesthethics of this lightbox, every other lightbox looks just fugly. Thanks once again! I’d recommend this to just about anyone!

  149. 149. Mosses Akizian 14-01-2010 09:34:44

    How can I implement this in Magento? (http://magentocommerce.com) Magento doesn’t have a direct path to all its images, they are categorized based on first and second characters of the file name.

  150. 150. Dr John 15-01-2010 11:35:27

    I really like this lightbox because I can open external sites I link to without users leaving my site. I am always impressed by the amount of work required in projects like this and then you make it free to use!

    I want to use the quicklook display option, but the close button often sits next to a menu item or google ad on my intended site. I do not want users getting annoyed by accidentally clicking the menu or google ad.

    Is it possible to choose which side of the display frame the close button appears?

    This might mean an extra configuration option, or more display options eg quicklookright = quicklook with button on right, etc

  151. 151. Eric Peacock 15-01-2010 18:07:17

    I guess I should ask the inevitable question:

    Are there any known issues with the new JQuery 1.4?

    JQuery 1.4 has some nice speed optimizations, among other things.

  152. 152. Michael 16-01-2010 00:10:59

    hey, great work… i’m a big fan of lightboxs and i must say your version is the best in terms of look and usage… the only thing is how can i control the overlay opacity and slideshow with autostart. rightnow i’m using customized version of colorbox on my site “www.inkline.co.in”…

  156. 156. John Snavely 18-01-2010 18:12:45

    I really like this script and can easily see it being used on some of the websites I maintain. However, judging from your demo it does not appear to scale down pictures larger than the browser window when opening them. This is the 1 missing feature that I would need to make this usable for me.

    Thanks for your work on this! I really do like what I see and after using over 60 different lightbox scripts I’m not easily impressed anymore.

    Let me know if you add that and I will download and test application of your script immediately! Thanks again, It looks great

  157. 157. vero 18-01-2010 18:54:23

    If i want to show this lightbox as a “pop_up” in my web? how can i do it?

    thanks a lot!!!

    Fullscreeen video now works! Nice job!

  159. 159. Natalia Creamer 21-01-2010 21:36:30

    I’m getting this response on my website www.tomfeltenstein.com

    Sorry, but the following error occured:

    TypeError: Result of expression ‘jQuery(“#top_up .te_frame”).resizable’ [undefined] is not a function.

    It was working before when I had the site on a temporary ip address so I could build it but now that I moved it to the public domain the videos don’t work.

  160. 160. Alan 21-01-2010 21:42:21

    In firefox. v3.5.7 I do not seem to have this issue on your site but on my site… the frame that surrounds the image or video… is not there.

    It works in IE… but in firefox it does not have the quicklook or flatlook frame with the close button and gray background behind the text.

    Have you seen this problem before?

  161. 161. Paul Engel 21-01-2010 21:55:11

    @Natalia: what happens when you don’t include jquery manually?
    @alan: you probably need to adjust the TopUp.images_path variable as it seems that TopUp can’t find the images

  162. 162. Alan 21-01-2010 22:39:11

    I did update the image path … that is why it is working in Internet Explorer.
    I updated TopUp.host, TopUp.images_path and TopUp.players_path.

    If I look at the css of the page in IE it shows the image and the path correctly.. but in firefox it does not find the images and add them.

    But when I set an alert in the javascript to output the css before it gets added to the page head the image links are in the css and correct. They just do not seem to stay intact.

    If i include your top_up-min.js file from your server it works perfectly as soon as I move it to my server it has issues.

    It just seems strange that Internet Explorer loads the images and Firefox is having a issue.

  163. 163. Alan 21-01-2010 22:54:23

    Solved the problem… there was a space in the images path.
    And firefox did not like that at all. So I just used %20 and it worked great.

  164. 164. Reynaldo 23-01-2010 03:41:27

    Hi everyone!
    Could someone help me?.
    About the problem with Flash and IE, how can I solved it?
    I’m a little bit lost. I should send wmode=transparent, but how?, in the link?, in the topoptions?
    I can´t view the flash in IE in this way:

    Thanks!

  165. 165. Ray 26-01-2010 14:33:15

    Hi,

    How do you increase the quota for images in the slideshow? It seems like I can only have a maximum amount until the last image won’t show.

    thanx,

    ray

  166. 166. paul irish 26-01-2010 23:15:34

    Esc key should exit out of the lightbox.
    It’s pretty common in lightbox scripts.

    Otherwise very nice, though I prefer seeing the close icon in the upper right.

  167. 167. Phillip 27-01-2010 04:06:57

    i am just wondering how to pass form data in TopUp iframe to the main page. It is not mentioned in any doc.

    Any help pls.

  168. 168. Bill 28-01-2010 03:43:03

    I am confused on a couple of points.
    1) I wasn’t having any success with the copy of top_up-min.js that was shipped with the download I got yesterday. So, I put in the line that goes to TopUp and gets the most recent version. That worked fine, except that it doesn’t play flash .flv files (I noticed your home page demo has a JWPlayer for flash that is watermarked, which means LongTail never got paid for a license). Be that as it may, MY POINT HERE is that I pulled a copy of your latest release into my editor and named it properly, saved it in my js folder, and got rid of the automatic download link. Same site. I pasted it into my address window and there came the file. BUT IT DOESN’T WORK, just like the copy included in the original download (1.6.8) doesn’t work if I call it from my own folder . For some reason I seem to have to connect to your site to make it work. THAT is fishy. I don’t like fishy. I can’t have my site depend on whether your site is up. Without a slideshow feature and without video playback I gotta tell you that it could be wonderful but this gift horse doesn’t do very well when you look it in the mouth. I was very hopeful, but you aren’t quite making my day. Thanks anyway for trying. It did look good. The simple installation thing is the best thing since Rubic’s Cube.

  169. 169. Bill 28-01-2010 05:10:10

    Like so many, I have to apologize for jumping the gun about the gift-horse. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a Rubic’s cube that solved itself? Anyway, one last re-read and I noticed the line that TopUp would figure out what files it needs itself if ALL of the files sat in that folder. It does say that. Just not intuitive. That would explain why an internet connection to the “latst version” woud come up with the needed files but a cold download from there wouldn’t work. I dragged ALL of the js files into the same path as the top_up-min.js file, it pulled much more than that out because with that path it seems to have gotten more than just the top_up-min.js file out of there. I don’t have full functionality yet, but I feel like I’ll get there. Not wrestling with it till 3am will certainly help. Somebody greased my Rubic’s…

    Enough noise from here. Thanks for TopUp. Now…something about a slideshow mode? I know I read that somewhere….

  170. 170. Bill 28-01-2010 06:02:29

    well, almost. I have all the JQuery scripts that were being used when I took the http: file route. (Thanks to FF FireBug tools). They are all where they seem to belong. The window opens in the overlay, but I only get rectangular corners with no controls—no quick-look unless I am connected to theTopUp site. Not pretty. Not staying up till 3am again. Three strikes, you’re out. Bye.

  171. 171. Matt 29-01-2010 02:12:27

    How do we disable dragging of the lightbox?

  172. 172. Branden 29-01-2010 16:11:31

    I second Reinhard Hutter’s comment:

    Is there a “stand-alone TopUp”, that allows me to to include JS files manually to prevet double inclusions? Which parts of jQuery UI beyond core are needed by TopUp?
  173. 173. Jenya 31-01-2010 20:02:37

    Hello, I have a question about closing the window. How to click on the link to close the window? Which option pass? overlayClose do not work properly. Works only in a pair with any other parameter. Thanks in advance:)

  174. 174. Jenya 31-01-2010 20:05:31

    In other words, how to close the window? Clicking on the link?

  175. 175. Jenya 31-01-2010 20:55:21

    TopUp.close(callback) – It’s don’t work :( or i’am don’t understand… Please help. How to use?

    I’m write

    Close

    or

    Close

    what I’m doing wrong?

  176. 176. Thomas Vervik 31-01-2010 22:46:01

    The plug in looks great, but I have a issue when using a servlet to deliver the images. I have to give parameters to the servlet to specify which image to get in return, but the plug in crashes when it should get the image when clicking the link. First I thought it was because my servlet wasn’t provinding the necessary http headers, but then I found it its the parameters which make it crash. Let me show my code:

    First, this one works since I refer to a static image file::

    This is what I want to do, but which fails:

    And I’m pretty 100% sure its not my servlet which is wrong since this code snippit doesnt work either (the parameters here is obosolte, but it should be perfectly valid:

    I heard about TopUp and Dan Benjamin’s Dev Talk show. I like the functionality.

    It appears there is a bug w/ keystrokes in Safari for Mac, though. I am using Safari 4.0.4 and ESC and the arrow keys have no response from TopUp. Closes out and advances fine in Firefox though.

    Is anyone else having this issue?

  180. 180. Karin 01-02-2010 18:17:12

    I have an issue with TopUp 1.6.8 using a Samsung N140 netbook [Safari 4.0.4 (531.21.10) as well as Firefox 3.6 Beta 3 and Quicktime Version 7.6.4 (518.35)]. When trying to play Quicktime Movies (H.264 and MPEG4) the display area stays dark and only the audio track is processed. When removing the TopUp script from the .html, the videos are displayed correctly (so it seems not to be a performance issue with the H.264 codec). On another Windows XP machine everything is ok. Mac OS X and Linux have also no issue with playing the videos.

    Anyone seen the same effects?

    Thanks, Karin

  181. 181. Stefano 02-02-2010 12:54:58

    Is it possible to add multiple TopUp which could appaer auto-organized on different window size? I need something to open multiple links on same click like a star for example.

  182. 182. Stephan 02-02-2010 19:53:17

    Hello,

    is it possible to compile the url for the TopUp (iFrame-Mode) with JavaScript at runtime and add it to the presets?

    By the way: Great work! Thumbs up!

    Thanks,
    Stephan

  183. 183. Karin 02-02-2010 22:55:32

    Follow-Up to #180: Same web site, but access with a Mac Mini [Mac OS X 10.4, Firefox 3.5.7 and QuickTime 7.6.4 (518.35)] shows the same effect, so the display stays dark and only the audio gets thru. Opening the same page with Safari works fine.

    Greetings, Karin

  184. 184. Santiago 03-02-2010 04:12:31

    Hi Paul! this is a fantastic piece of code. I’m using it on a solution using ASP.NET MVC to build a “sort-of” a dynamic SideBar where multiple types of content is shown. I know JW player has the ability to play mp3 files, is there a way to add this capability to your code?. Up to my (very limited) knowledge, is just a matter to modify the deriveType function to return “flashvideo” for either an flv or a mp3 file… (or maybe use quicktime?)

    Thanks!

  185. 185. Michele 03-02-2010 12:28:11

    Hello,
    I’m using TopUp implementations but I have a small problem.
    Once you open the pop up in an iframe I would like the iframe is closed by clicking on any links.

    Is anyone else having really bad performance problems on IE7?

    It works really well in every other browser (Firefox, Chrome, even IE6 and IE8!) but in IE7 it completely chews the CPU while the TopUp is appearing.

    Great plugin BTW – looks great and easy to implement. The demo page is a great idea too, and is a big part of why I chose TopUp.

  188. 188. Vin Thomas 04-02-2010 06:51:13

    For those of you asking how to add the wmode=“transparent” parameter to get topup working above flash, view the following sample code (near the end).

    Page 1 contains link, which contains following:
    Edit

    This then opens popup iframe with Page 2 form.

    When I’m finished on Page 2, I want automatically execute “close window” code but then to also REFRESH page 1

    How do I do this?

    Thanks

    Very nice software. But I do have a challenge. This is a quicktime test we are running in the same folder as the readme.html. For Firefox, when I press the button, it loads the player and then you can watch the movie load. For IE8 it displays a broken link where the player should be, downloads the movie and then loads the player. This can take several minutes. Also for IE8 when the player loads, I am getting audio only. If I replace my movie with the Dark Knight movie then I get the broken link for maybe a second, then the player loads and I can watch the video load. I know that my url is valid because when it is not valid I get a ? in the quicktime player.

    Top_Up is located in a folder called topup just below the www folder.

    Thanks for your help.

  191. 191. Alan 05-02-2010 13:16:49

    I tried to include code but I guess this editor executes it.
    I set this toption in the HEAD section
    TopUp.images_path = “images/top_up/”;
    Here are the toptions in the link
    toptions=“width = 800, height = 400, title = Wishbone, layout = quicklook,
    shaded = 1”
    The movies I am trying to play are at http://www.alexrhall.com/movies
    They are reel.mov and Wishbone.mov.

    Thanks again.

    Hey Carlos I’m having trouble with your lightbox, for some reason everytime I click on the next button it looks as if the box is moving down just a bit, is this a known issue? I also wanted to add something to the lightbox where it could display information about the image beyond just using the alt or title attribute, are you free for a quick side project?

  193. 193. AndyD 10-02-2010 18:41:30

    in Firefox 3.5.7 (at least), there are scrollbars around a video – is there an easy way to get rid of these?

    Great code – thanks!

  194. 194. Bogdan Pop 11-02-2010 08:44:48

    Have to say that it is a nice plugin, but it is a little inconsistent. The closing button jumps from one corner to the other, changes style etc.

    Hi I am using VLB 3.0 Business Edition and have a test page on
    www.allbuttonedup.co.uk/test/

    What I am trying to do is setup a shop so people can browse products and click to buy using PayPal

    I’ve added the PayPal button code in HTML to each item but when Add to Cart is clicked nothing happens

    I know the PayPal button/form works as I have tested it here
    www.allbuttonedup.co.uk/pay/

    Please can you tell me if it’s possible to do what I am trying using TopUp?

    I know you’re not a commercial enterprise but would donate if it’s possible

    Hey Paul,

    I am using topup on http://wsfc.org. I love the script!

    The issue I am having is that when I include the bundled version of jQuery using

    &lt;?php wp_enqueue_script("jquery"); ?>

    I get an error from topup:

    Sorry, but the following error occured: TypeError: jQuery("#top_up .te_frame").resizable is not a function

    Do you know any way around this? I’d love to use the bundled version of jQuery that comes with WordPress to ensure plugins don’t screw anything up for me in this arena.

    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    I’m trying to implement TopUp Here but I’m having three issues. First issue is when setting up the images in a gallery, the arrows move for each new image shown, at first I thought it may be my css that was conflicting with TopUp but that wasn’t the case. Second issue is I wanted to create an area with the TopUp image that showed content e.g. text, links, etc. and the current solution through the title tag is not working anyone else have a work around? Third issue is with when trying to validate the document it won’t validate because it says there is not attribute named “TopUp” understandable but is it possible to use something that will allow it to validate like a “rel” tag?

    Thanks in advance for any input anyone wants to add!

    Paul,

    Thanks very much for such a great lightbox tool. I am going to enjoy using it in my projects. Check out this one —

    http://seawooddevelopers.com/projects/seawood-anchor/

    TopUp really soups up the overall feel of a page. I have noticed a bug though and have reported it on Github.

    Cheers! Keep up the good work! Will donate surely for such a worthy tool.

Before i used Topup , i call a pictureview.aspx page which shows the picture and increase a view (click) counter of the image. how can i realize this with topup?

    Hello!

    Your Lightbox is very cool, but I got an error when I tried to implement it.

    My site is: http://fosztoandrasepitesz.hu
    I’m using Concrete5 CMS and jQuery 1.3.2

    I’d like to implement TopUp to here: http://fosztoandrasepitesz.hu/referenciak/csaladi-haz/

    I’ve just added with jQuery the class tu_ql_iframe:
    $(“#scrollable h3 a”).addClass(“tu_ql_iframe”);

    When I click to a link in the list I get this error:

    Sorry, but the following error occured:

    TypeError: Result of expression ‘jQuery(“#top_up .te_frame”).resizable’ [undefined] is not a function.

    Now I turned off TopUp because the site is done except this thing.

    Could you help me?

    THX in advance,

    Hi Paul,

    I would like to know if there is a way to assign the TopUp code to a button which, itself, is already influenced by a CSS script changing its source image depending on if it is clicked or not.

    The button’s CSS code looks as follows:

    Is there a way to integrate this TopUp code in order to open the Dark Knight example?

    Thank you very much in advance for your reply,

    hello all,
    I’ve scanned the comments and see others having trouble with scroll bars appearing (in my case with flash video). any solutions/suggestions for removing/preventing scroll bars ? they disappear with one setting (effect=switch) but this puts the top right close button (x) mostly behind the window. changing or removing ‘effect=’ and scroll bars return….
    thanks much,
    ~ t

  211. 211. tony 21-02-2010 17:02:24

    hello again,
    just noticed, too, that flash video does not play (or plays for a brief instance and goes white) in IE8 if (effect=switch) is implemented.

    without this option it plays fine across browsers – but again with scroll bars. changing overlay options will not remove the bars, either.

    otherwise, grateful to TopUp for a terrific service.
    any thoughts appreciated,
    ~ t

    I’m trying to use the jwplayer in TopUp with a custom skin. Is there an easy way to set the skin= flashvar?

  216. 216. tony 22-02-2010 22:54:53

    andreas ~ thanks for your inquiry.
    i’’m doing nothing special reallly:

    (see video)

    as is, i get scroll bars – but works fine. if i add ‘effect=switch’, i get no scroll bars (which i prefer) but i have the problems described in comments above. i don’t even want the ‘switch’ effect – just no scroll bars for .flv.

    i’m running other jquery scripts – so perhaps a conflict? altho i’ve disabled the other scripts (except one lightbox clone called shadowbox) one at a time and still no luck. i have had trouble putting the link where i need it – i think it falls under the auspices of shadowbox – which is why i chose TopUp – the only one to work for me.

    i’m afraid i’m too much a novice to even venture a guess on your issue. sorry!

    i would post a link to my site, but i see too much random spam going on in this comment section of TopUp.

    cheers,
    ~ t

    well, the code i typed was replaced by that (see video) link above – no idea where that link came from.
    let me try ur method:

    I having a problem with using TopUp on IE8 and 7 with the JWplayer that these browsers are using to interpret Flash. I’ve got a swf file that does a zoom and pan function on a linked jpg (through AS3). The player appears on IE8, 7 but refuses to run the swf. Any ideas on how this may be resolved? The html files run In Firefox on a pc, and on my macs in Safari and Firefox.

    Hi Paul,

    your lightbox is really nice and easy to integrate.

    But, I would like to know if it is already possible to replace the thumbnail image file by a swf?

    Simply replacing

    <img src=“/images/thumbnails/1.jpg”/>

    with

    <img src=“/images/thumbnails/1.swf”/>

    doesn’t work ;)

    Thanks in adavance for your help,

    @dy

    P.S.

    an option to preview the post before publishing would help for osting code.

  221. 221. Stephen 01-03-2010 09:17:26

    Well I absolutely love this script, But it needs to modified so that the javascript can be placed in the footer of the document and not the head.

    Javascript blocks and therefor should be the last element to be downloaded, this method is used by many for high performance websites and doing a side by side comparison actually cuts a pages load time in half. Only problem is top up breaks when placed in the footer.

  222. 222. gdanx 01-03-2010 11:59:40

    Hi, first of all, this script is absolutely amazing! Thank you for a great job!

    I’m trying to figure out, how to set up a popup window on load. In the changelog section I found this:

    Automatically calling TopUp.display (or TopUp.displayTopUp) with jQuery(document).ready() when necessary. In other words: you can call TopUp.display() whenever you want and TopUp will be displayed a.s.a.p. and thus also on page load (yay!)

    Can anyone tell me, how exactly should the code look for onload autopopup?

    Thanks!

  223. 223. gdanx 01-03-2010 18:53:11

    figured it out :)

  224. 224. tob1 02-03-2010 10:46:00

    hey paul,
    thanks a lot for this massive and awesome script!

    i am trying to apply it only to linked images, not to all links within the text in which the images are placed. but i am not getting it. have the TopBox-elements have to be in a seperate container or is the a chance to apply a filter?

    thanks a lot.

  225. 225. tob1 02-03-2010 11:04:44

    ok, i figured it out.

    FYI:
    TopUp.addPresets({
    “#example a:has(img)”: {

    Hey Paul,
    you created a really cool script!

    I tried to use it with Google maps. I cant get it to work properly. The map does not fill the whole div. That is really strange. Looks like some css-problem. Have you ever experienced that? Maybe you could add an example how to use the script with Google maps.

    Thanks

    hi paul,

    thanks for your great plugin. :)
    just a little question. on my site i use a small form that points to googlemaps. a visitor could enter his address on my site and gets a route description on google maps in a new tab/window. is it possible to show the new window in topup?

    thank you & regards

    Marvelous script. I was just wondering if there is any way, that we could add buttons to the quicklook layout. Particularly, in the are below the content area.

  232. 232. Hara 08-03-2010 14:17:25

    Hi there,
    I have a systematic way to separate js files, images, documents. My folder structure is like this:

    http://www.mydomain.com/scripts/jquery/latest.js
    This is the latest jquery that I have.

    http://www.mydomain.com/scripts/jquery/top_up.js
    Path to the top_up script

    http://www.mydomain.com/images/top_up/
    Image path

    So, what are the parameters I can send or how do I refer to the top_up script? Thanks for the answer!

    Hello,
    Is it possible to have the pop-up, instead of ‘onclick’ to have an onload feature? So when my visitors visit the page, this script pop ups automatically?

    I’d love to use it for my opt-in form. Thanks a lot :) Great script!

    Paul, this is my favorite lightbox that I’ve seen. Great work!

    I just wanted to point out a couple of bugs, though.

    1. In Firefox 3.5 and 3.6 (both Mac and PC) the image does not stay centered when switching within a group of images. It keeps moving up a few pixels with each transition.

    2. In Firefox 3.5 for PC, the lightbox and the overlay stay hidden under the page’s flash elements.

    Keep up the good work.

  238. 238. Gavin 10-03-2010 04:14:05

    Hi there.

    I’m using GetTopUp to display some html content within a DIV container, however the flash element on the webpage below is sitting on top of the GetTopUp content.

    I can see I’m not the only one with this problem, however the only solution I can see is to add a parameter to the flash file itself. In my case, this solution isn’t that easy. Is there another way to solve this problem?

  239. 239. sam 11-03-2010 13:20:45

    Thanx for this…

    But I am getting following error
    “jQuery(selector).live is not a function
    [Break on this error] if(typeof(TopUp)==”undefined"){var scr…nge=“TopUp.init()”><\/script>’)}}())};"

    I am also using prototype on the same page…

    How to solve that???

    To a trouble of positioning pop-up with grouped pics.
    I’m using a PT-version, so I’m fixed the positioning on lines 81-82 like this:
    top: offset.top - (delta.height === 0 ? 0 : parseInt(delta.height / 2, 10)) - 1, left: offset.left - (delta.width === 0 ? 0 : parseInt(delta.width / 2, 10)) - 1,

    That code helped me, and I hope to you too.
    Sorry for my English :)

  247. 247. Pierre 20-03-2010 02:40:28

    I’m loving TopUp, but have encountered three problems that i’m hoping you can help me fix.

    The first problem is with playing youtube videos. i had no problem implementing the code to play the beastie boys youtube that you have on your site, but when i replaced the beastie boys youtube link with another youtube link (no matter what it was), i couldn’t get it to play in TopUp.

    This is the code i put in place. The first one in the gallery is to the beastie boys vid, the second is another vid that won’t play.

    YOUTUBE TEST

    The second problem i encountered is this:
    whenever i make a gallery of same size objects, the window shift very very slightly to the bottom and right when i click to the next image in the gallery. Is there a way to stop it from making that very slight shift in movement?

    The third is this:
    For some reason my MOV videos work fine in Safari, but on Firefox and Google Chrome i only hear the audio of the MOV but don’t see the visuals playing back. this is the code:

    VIDEO TEST

    Lastly, is there a way to create an working url link in the title, or somewhere in the display box; i’d like to direct people to a website upon viewing some screenshots of websites.

    Thanks so much for your help!

    ps – Am I a correct to assume that the cursor arrows to go forward and backward in gallery mode won’t show if i’m playing MOV videos with the dashboard display?

  248. 248. Ichjetzthier 21-03-2010 14:53:26

    Hi there!
    First of all, thank you for this really great lightbox!
    I only have one little issue. Is it possible to give the popup a size inherited by the window-size (just like 95% or 100 with a little padding)? I actually just don’t find out, how to do this, all I get is a pixel-based output.
    Thx a lot!!!
    :-)

  249. 249. Emrah 21-03-2010 15:49:04

    Asp pages not working Topup , page gives this warning
    TypeError: jQuery(“#top_up .te_frame”).resizable is not a function

    If you do help me very happy

  250. 250. Ichjetzthier 21-03-2010 15:55:50

    Okay I found the solution, rather easy: just a little javascript to get the window-size and put it to the width/height (substracted some pixels for a little margin). Works as if it was made to. ;-)

  251. 251. Paul Engel 22-03-2010 00:26:24

    At the ones having the ‘TypeError: jQuery("#top_up .te_frame).resizable is not a function’ error, are you including jQuery manually after you have included TopUp? If so, the auto-included jQuery libs will be ‘overwritten’ hence the error.

  252. 252. Hara 22-03-2010 11:16:16

    Hi there,
    This plug-in is really great. Is it possible to create own parameters,configuration so that I can then retrieve this in the .js file and do accordingly?

    First of all, good work!
    I have a doubt. Could i have a trigger button that displays de gallery?

    Practical example:
    I have two images grouped by a class, but i don’t want them to show the gallery.

    1
    2

    I want to have a button like this:

    That shows the gallery with two grouped images. Is it possible?

    }

  257. 257. ?ukasz 25-03-2010 14:21:54

    Super project! ! !
    You should add params to video flash (wmode:‘transparent’), becouse close button is under flash. Its line 529 :)

  258. 258. chad 25-03-2010 15:02:29

    Great product!! We are currently using highslide (non-jQuery) because the alt tag of the image appears as text below the expanded image. We have to adhere to all accessibility requirements so our images are all alt tagged. Is this a feature that could be included in yours? I would prefer to use a jQuery solution and yours is the slickest I’ve seen so far! (and I like that it works when JavaScript is turned off…nice touch!)

  259. 259. Sjeeke 26-03-2010 15:14:45

    Great work Paul.

    I did had a strange styling issue when adding TopUp to my website though.

    When navigating from one image in a collection to the next, the next image did not remain centered when the wrapper was resizing. Instead, it would scale the next image towards one corner or one side of the previous image. After doing that, the script centered it to the center of the browser window. (This makes the image jump around on screen).

    I had this line in my CSS to reset certain tags:

    html, body, div, span, object, iframe, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, blockquote, pre, a, abbr, acronym, address, code, del, dfn, em, img, q, dl, dt, dd, ol, ul, li, fieldset, form, label, legend, table, caption, tr, td
    {margin:0;padding:0;border:0;font-weight:inherit;font-style:inherit;font-size:100%;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;}

    This issue here was the ‘vertical-align:baseline;’.

    I had to fix it by adding this line of code:

    td {vertical-align:middle;}

    This ofcourse would change the styling on all the td’s so I tried this too:

    td.te_middle { vertical-align:middle;}

    But for some strange reasong that did NOT work at all, even though Firebug did indicate that ‘vertical-align:middle’ was applied to it.

  260. 260. Sjeeke 26-03-2010 15:32:25

    When my page got more complex I had to turn that into:

    td {vertical-align:middle;text-align:center}

  261. 261. Rodrigo Feed 26-03-2010 19:29:29

    Hello, thank you for this great plugin. The only problem is: it not compatible with IE6! Sometimes it works, sometimes not. For example:

    - The 5th example (rainbox image) opens the lightbox, but there is no image inside. If you move the lightbox around, the image apperars
    - The 9th example (inline DOM) starts ok, but when you click next, an error occurs in javascript after the lightbox is resized, and then you can’t open any more lightboxes.

    There are 2 quick problems I found, then I stopped testing in IE6. Are you aware of this bugs? Are you supporting IE6? I hate this browser, but unfortunately it’s still widely used :(

    Keep up the good work!

    Cheers from Brazil,
    Rodrigo

    Hi Paul,

    I’ve setup TopUp on to handle the galleries, but I can’t get it to work in IE8 and Safari 4.0.5

    The navigation and closing images won’t show up.
    Any tips would be grately appreciated because I really love this plugin.

    @Rodrigo Feed
    Dump IE6 Rodrigo. It’s a terrible browser and some major companies stop supporting it: http://iedeathmarch.org/

    I’m relatively new to javascript coding, but your product and implementation is fantastic. Looked at several products and your blows everything out of the water.

    I’m being playing around with top_up. One question though-I followed your instructions to host the code and images myself. Everything works except the close_link.png and lightbox wrapper does not appear. It works when getting it from gettopup.com but not when I try to host it myself.

    http://www.pursuingpurposebook.com/special.html

    Please help and thanks

  265. 265. Phil 29-03-2010 07:53:50

    Hello Paul

    I recently found out about TopUp.
    I think the pop out transition is the reason I decide to try it over others.

    One problem I have using this program is that when I pop up a window and close it then immediately open another, the overlay lockup.

    The only way to get out of it is to refresh the page.

    I’m running Safari 405 on a OSX 10.5.8.

    Thank you and cheers!

  266. 266. Kim Steinhaug 29-03-2010 14:19:42

    Great plugin. However when initiating the plugin it seems that Google Maps in IE6 and IE7 doesnt work for some reason, I will look more into this and hopefully find some sollution.

  267. 267. Kim Steinhaug 29-03-2010 14:55:04

    It seems it’s the TopUp.addPresets function that kills the map in IE6 and IE7. Using the toptions attribute works fine.

  268. 268. Donald Fredrick 29-03-2010 20:06:24

    how do you ‘post’ a JSON string to show multiple images in a directory so I can dynamically change images without referring to the html every time?

  269. 269. Philip 30-03-2010 21:59:40

    First off, great script. Best lightbox out there. Period.

    Second: found a small bug. My title was off by a few pixels. It seemed to have extra padding. Turns out the class:
    [code].te_quicklook .te_title { top:6px; }[code]

    can inherit the line-height from the body class, effectively misaligning the title when set to greater than 100%.

    I fixed this by adding:
    [code]body #top_up { line-height: normal; }[/code]

    to my code.

  270. 270. Doug Moore 31-03-2010 03:54:47

    I was very skeptical that your scripts would work in my asp.net /c# web application. How wrong I was – as well as DELIGHTED on how easy it was to configure as wall as how beautiful the final result.

    You’ve got another TopUP FAN!

  271. 271. andreas 31-03-2010 15:20:09

    I’m also having problems with the box jumping 1px everytime I choose the next image in a group.

  272. 272. @dy 01-04-2010 20:00:23

    Hi Paul,

    I really like your tool.

    But I found a little bug.

    When opening and closing quickly several topup-windows containing video content the newly opend window will be shown in the top left corner of the the browser instead of the center.

    This happens in Firefox(latest version), Safari and IE 6.

    The bug can even be recreated when switching between the Dark Knight example and YouTube Beastie Boys – Sabotage example.

    Cheers,

    @dy

  273. 273. Mike 03-04-2010 19:21:13

    Great script! I am trying to open Top Up using a TopUp preset from a “div” rather than an “a href” but I keep getting an error:
    TypeError: reference is undefined.
    Is this possible or am I out of luck?

  274. 274. Jhon 04-04-2010 00:57:06

    Regards, there is a problem which is that the close button fails or does not have the correct z-index on a flash flv video

  275. 275. cheef 07-04-2010 11:32:57

    Can you add normal event handling api for each event of TopUp?
    I need to handle onclick event and setup x and y coordinates before top up shows, in that reason I created custom handlers, but using api will be more pleasant.

  276. 276. Raghib suleman 08-04-2010 09:52:04

    Nice thanks dude….

    Is there anyway when viewing a swf or flv file that the x with the circle be placed on top of the object? Does this have something to do with flash transparency not being to transparent? It is being viewed in opaque mode….Thanks for your Time……Greg

    I’m trying to group dom elements but somehow is not working. The elements are showing up, but they’re not grouped.

  279. 279. alonso 09-04-2010 17:47:48

    here are the top options I used

    onclick=“TopUp.display(‘elem_1’, {type: ‘dom’, layout: ‘quicklook’, overlayClose: 1, shaded:1}); return false;”

    Hi,
    I’m using the script to call up an asp file with text info when someone clicks on an image map on a world map. Works great in FF, Safari and Chrome. However, in IE 6-8, the background of the iframe remains white. All the other images that compose the edges, corners close button, dropshadows etc do appear but the background stays white. Any idea what may be causing this?

    thanks
    -mark

  281. 281. alonso 09-04-2010 23:59:25

    oh sorry I used these options :

    onclick=“TopUp.display(‘#elem_1’, {type: ‘dom’, group:‘doms’, layout: ‘quicklook’, overlayClose: 1, shaded:}); return false;”

    but it doesn’t group them or it doesn’t show the arrows to navigate, does anybody knows why ?

    I am hoping to get Topup to work in Drupal (including in a block). Can this be done? If so, what’s the trick, if any?
    Thanks.

    Topscript!
    Alleen mijn swf-jes herhalen steeds. Is er een parameter om na een keer afspelen automatisch te stoppen?

    TopUp youtube video embed is not working on IE7. PLEASE SUPPORT. Paul please reply to ur email or tweet.

  286. 286. Carlos 21-04-2010 02:34:22

    Hi Paul, I just found TopUp online today and got very excited about using it in a project. Unfortunately I first tried it on Safari where it works great but just now tried it on FF3 and IE 7 where it seems to fail. I tried several of your demos and all of them work very slowly and all stop working all together at some point in these browsers. I’m guessing the speed is due to JavaScript engines but when it stops working I’m assuming there are browser compatibility issues. Just thought you’d like to know. Thanks. – Carlos

  287. 287. Mick 21-04-2010 08:03:22

    Hi Paul,
    Any joy on my previous post:

    Only got the one (small) issue. My HTML is clean but pulls up an error when checked with W3C saying there is no attribute “toptions”.

    If I can sort this small issue my HTML would then validate.

    Any ideas?
    Many thanks

    Hello Paul,
    Greetz from germany ;)
    I found your library and loved it from the first impression!

    BUT i had a lot issues with ajax, framesize etc. here my fixes:

    [code]
    //function onContentReady:

    if (html) {
    options.content = jQuery(‘’ + html + ’’);
    }

    //instead of

    if (html) {
    options.content = jQuery(html);
    }
    [/code]
    fixed problem with ajax (content wasn’t show before)

    [code]
    //function afterDisplay:

    //…
    }

    checkPosition();

    //jQuery(“.te_top_up,.te_content”).unlockDimensions(); t too bad ;)

  289. 289. Friedrich 21-04-2010 15:29:33

    sry for the doublepost but last post has wrong codetags
    //function onContentReady:

    if (html) {
    options.content = jQuery(‘’ + html + ’’);
    }

    //instead of

    if (html) {
    options.content = jQuery(html);
    }

    Fantastic script – really versatile.
    I’m trying to integrate this with a flash asset – using getURL () to call the lightbox. Has anyone managed to do this successfully? I’ve tried the code Ron posted (#256) but it’s not working…

    Any ideas? Many thanks

  293. 293. Markus 23-04-2010 08:11:41

    Hi Paul, thanks for this great script!
    Unfortunately I found a problem. With IE8 the demo pictures on gettopup.com work fine. But when I download the release 1.7.2 on my local pc (Vista), then IE8 shows the effect ‘transform’ correct when I click on a thumbnail, but when I close the enlarged image, then the picture disappears without ‘transform’ effect. Same behaviour when I upload the demo files of your release to my online server. With IE8 the ‘transform’ effect when an enlarged picture closes seems to work for me only in your demo on your original server gettopup.com.
    With other browsers (FireFox, Safari, Opera) I don’t have this problem. Can you help me, please?
    Tanks

    Hi, thanks for your work on this great script!

    I´m loading a page with search results via Ajax. Clicking the resulting links to detailed info load this in a topup box (also via ajax). Works as expected but would be really cool if the links could be grouped! I don´t seem to be able to do that. Is that even possible??

    /PO

  295. 295. Eric 28-04-2010 00:55:38

    Hi, quick note of thanks— TopUp is great! I did have one question, though. Trying to implement ‘title’ in toptions, and it works— but the title is a touch too high and I can’t read it. Any way to force the window to give ample room to show the title? I’ve tried playing with the ‘y’ switch but it seems to “bounce” back to the original position. I also don’t want to give a fixed ‘height’ options but that does seem to work.

    Thanks!
    Eric

    Hi Paul,

    Your library is far the best lightbox I’ve ever seen. But I’m stuck with dynamic usage. I’d appreciate your help.

    The problem is: I have an php array with the URL link and the name of few videos. I’d like to show them as a gallery starting with the first when I click in the video icon. Any idea on how to do this? I have read the documentation several times, but it didn’t help me that much.

    Thx

  297. 297. Walter Ferlazzo 29-04-2010 08:22:24

    Wonderful product, really!
    But I’m stuck with this problem: I open a TopUp popup with some grouped images links inside. I need to display them in a new TopUp browsable window; it’s easy to obtain, but the new popup “lives” inside the iframe of the parent popup, while I need it to use the main page boundaries.
    How can I accomplish this?

    Another solution could be opening a new popup (after closing the old one) passing it the images list with javascript: is there any call to TopUp allowing this?

    Thanks in advance.

  298. 298. Walter Ferlazzo 29-04-2010 08:24:26

    Sorry for the repeated posts, but clicking on “submit” in the popup didn’t do anything (or at least it seemed so)… :(

  299. 299. Sam 30-04-2010 13:01:51

    Hi Paul,

    Your library is a very good job and I enjoy to use it. I found 2 bugs in IE7 for all type of boxes, with all effects and type “ajax”.

    The first bug is simple, I have a first ajax box that I called from the page (I try with toption and with Preset), it works very well. But I have also a second ajax box wich is called directly from the first box. In all browsers it works but not in IE7 (IE8 is ok).

    The second bug is that Preset seems to work fine in all browsers excepts IE7, with type ajax and the correct preset, nothing appears…

    An idea ?
    Thanks for your help.

  300. 300. Sandeep 02-05-2010 17:11:17

    Hi,
    I had been using greybox till I came across your plugin yesterday. I now want to switch to this script as the boxes seem to have a lot more variety and control.
    However, I am not sure if i am not looking correctly or if there is just a lack of enough documentation. Hoping you can help me with an issue i am facing. I am using the popup box to launch a form for the user. Once the user submits a form, i want to close the window, however, topup.close or topup.overlayClose but doesnt seem to work. if you want to see how I am using it, you can see it at http://projects.crimsonwindow.com/gooddeed and then click on Contact in the footer.
    I’ll really appreciate if you can provide any assistance.
    Thanks
    Sandeep

  301. 301. steve 04-05-2010 15:38:22

    can the box be launched from flash

  302. 302. Joop Schor 04-05-2010 17:25:13

    My swf video’s keep repeating. Does anyone know how to solve this? Used toptions: toptions=“shaded = 1, width = 720, height = 400, title = Title, layout = quicklook”

  303. 303. Martinio 05-05-2010 15:10:36

    Hey, I love the plug-in! It seems to be exactly what I was looking for, but I have 1 slight issue. When I use the Toptions to open up a new page it seems to center perfectly in Firefox, Google chrome and safari but for some reason it “jumps” to the top left of the screen in IE7 and IE8. I thought it was on my side at first but I tested your example page and it does the same there as well (Toptions then “open Google” in IE7 +8).

    I just noticed that it seems to just happen with the layout set to quicklook.

    If you have any workaround for this please do share, in the mean time I will have a look through it my self, thanks!

  304. 304. Gain 05-05-2010 19:46:22

    Is there anyone who tried to let TopUp close trough javascript.
    Im using TopUp as a iframe and im trying to close TopUp after a few seconds when a page is loaded like:

    function close() {
    setTimeout(“go_now()”,5000);
    }

    function go_now () {
    TopUp.close();
    }

    I just cant find a working solution for this, so is there anyone who might have a idea how to make something like this work.

  305. 305. Walter Ferlazzo 05-05-2010 19:51:49

    @Gain
    Your code is right, but i think you must call parent.TopUp.close() as you’re using an iframe.

    Paul, any answer for my previous question? Thanks.

  306. 306. Walter Ferlazzo 05-05-2010 21:05:46

    @Gain
    To explain a little more: put your function in the body of the page that you display in the iframe. As that iframe is an element of the hosting page, your code will call the TopUp functions of the parent page, hence the parent.TopUp.close() call.

    @Paul Engel
    Your last post is dated 23-03-2010… I hope this project is still active and alive, is it?

  309. 309. Frank 07-05-2010 19:08:52

    Really enjoying TopUp. I have a question regarding your some examples on your homepage: http://gettopup.com/

    When I open the QuickTime example in a desktop browser like Safari or Firefox the movie opens in quicklook with a shaded overlay.

    When I open the same link on my iPhone in Mobile Safari the movie opens in quicklook without a shaded overlay.

    This is exactly what I’m trying to do for a project and I hope you can shed some light on how you’re doing this?

    The reason I would prefer the overlay not open in Mobile Safari is because the overlay doesn’t seem to fill the whole viewport.

    If it helps: I’m using a custom preset that opens an iframe, I’m linking to an external js file.

    // JavaScript Document

    TopUp.addPresets({ “.iframe a”: {

    width: 800,
    height: “600”,
    type:“iframe”,
    overlayClose:1,
    effect:“show”,
    resizable:0,
    shaded:1
    }
    });

  310. 310. Gain 08-05-2010 02:19:33

    Thanks Walter Ferlazzo,

    Forgetting about the parent…. Stupid me, never work with iframe’s anymore but it should do the trick. I already loading the script with <body onload… in the page but thanks anyway for the support!

  311. 311. JimmyZ 08-05-2010 18:37:19

    I am guessing you have server issues. I am making the call for the java script to your site and it times out on me half the time and the “X” sprite button in the upper right hand of the screen has not shown up for days. I have loaded everything up on my server BUT, for some reason teh sprite or teh “X” int eh corner will NOT show up.

    thekevinreport.com click on the webcams in the header and a popup should occur, but without the X. Any help would be appreciated! Great script, great work, just a few little issues. :)

  312. 312. Walter Ferlazzo 10-05-2010 14:03:10

    Paul, sorry to bother you, but I see you look at the comments as you have deleted duplicated messages, so if you could give me an answer to the question I asked you at comment #297 I would be happy, as I’m stuck with that problem.
    Thanks

    Hi, I love Get TopUp and I’m implementing in my portfolio.
    I have one quesiton:
    all I want is 1 thumb opening a gallery of two or more images.
    But I don’t want to show one thumb per image:
    is it possible?
    Thanks in advance for every solution :)

  314. 314. Vivianne 13-05-2010 17:21:02

    Hi! Thanks for such great script.

    I have a gallery enabled one but I’d like it to stop at the last picture and disable the go forward arrow. In other words, make it non circular. That way my users will know when the pictures end and won’t keep seeing them all a hundred of times. Is there a way?

    Thank you
    Vivianne

  315. 315. StuartH 13-05-2010 22:42:04

    Thanks for putting TopUp out. I really like it and it looks great!

    I have a question regarding QuickTime movies – how do you code for a thumbnail/poster frame that links to a STREAMING .mov in a topup window?

    I’ve used this kind of thing to embed the content:

    Problem is, it is taking too long before the movie starts. (7MB file.)

  316. 316. StuartH 14-05-2010 09:51:41

    Please ignore my question – I realize you create a new HTML page and link to that. This way, it allows for using an .flv with .mov as alternate content!

  317. 317. StuartH 14-05-2010 09:51:41

    Please ignore my question – I realize you create a new HTML page and link to that. This way, it allows for using an .flv with .mov as alternate content!

    Hey, thanks for your script, i really like and i am trying to use it on a project but i am having a little problem. I am using it to show a swf and it works great except on internet explorer which opens the window but doesn’t displays the animation. If there’s a solution to this i would really appreciate it.
    Regards

    great piece of code, unfortunately i’m having problems with IE7

  320. 320. Frank 19-05-2010 01:07:14

    For those with problems with scrolbars – I found a simple solution. I have not yet tested it with other media types beside .flv, but it’s working.

    I simply found the .te_scrollable class as defined in the top_up script – pick the script that you’re using. Once I found it, I commented out the contents, so it reads like this:

    .te_scrollable{/overflow:auto/}

    Boom – scrollbars are gone. Worked in recent versions of FF, IE, Chrome, Safari(PC) and Opera. Even worked in IE6 :) Obviously you can’t use the latest version hosted on gettopup.com, as you can’t modify it. You could always override this class in your page, but I don’t like extra styles when I can avoid them.

  321. 321. Frank 19-05-2010 01:08:19

    That’s meant to show an asterisk by the slashes to comment out the overflow attribute.

  322. 322. test 20-05-2010 04:25:29

    i just want to see if the send comment button closes the pop up

  323. 323. Clara 20-05-2010 22:35:11

    Thanks for developing such a great tool. But I can’t seem to get the .swf files working properly in IE. Looking at the demos on your home page, your “Flash swf” sample doesn’t work either – whether in compatibility mode or not (I’m using IE 8). Check out my screencast to see what I mean. BTW, why is JW player showing up as player control?

    http://www.screencast.com/users/Centrifuge/folders/Jing/media/b7bf2034-028b-4e88-b228-c8d1b5a034d6

    Your help is much appreciated!

  324. 324. Chris 21-05-2010 20:14:15

    Thanks for the great lightbox plugin!
    Truly great work.

    I’m using it in conjunction with this plugin:

    http://razorjack.net/quicksand/

    I’m using the above plugin to sort a image portfolio gallery by categories.

    I’m currently grouping the images using TopUp’s ‘group:’ option so I can navigate through the group by clicking on the navigation arrows.

    The question I have is how can I refresh the group after the above plugin sorts the gallery, because currently after I sort the group numbering gets out of sync. Is there a callback function that I can use to refresh a group of images on the page?

    Best Regards

  325. 325. Andrew 22-05-2010 02:19:42

    Awesome, amazing work!

    Any approved way to hide the close button? (te_close_link)

    I have a page with several form that all open up into topup windows, but One of those forms needs to be opened without a Close button.

    I can place a css hack (position: relative;) of some sort on the Parent page of the topup windows, but this will disable ALL of the close buttons on the page, I need to selectively disable this close button somehow.

  326. 326. Michael 22-05-2010 17:07:53

    Any progress on the close button problem in flv (and youtube??) presentations?
    In posting 257 the suggestion is to add the param but how would that be implemented?

  327. 327. Chad Seidel 22-05-2010 21:35:13

    I was extremely excited to run across TopUp!!! It looks so good!!! I got my website working correctly (using firefox and safari to check it) but when testing it with internet explorer everything seems to fail miserably. Once a link is clicked it takes about 5 seconds to respond with a weird glitchy pop up, not smoothly like it is meant to.

    This is my website if you would like to check it out I would appreciate it very much.

  328. 328. Andrew 24-05-2010 21:51:24

    Answered my own question (#325), Im a total js/noob, so please let me know if I am doing something unsavory here.

    I figured what I needed to do was host top_up, so that I can change top_up.js

    I have added:

    var baseurl= window.parent.location.href;
    var pos = baseurl.search(“my_page_name.php”);
    if(pos>-1){

    var css = …..

    (disable the button here, I have replaced images for flatlook with transparent images 1px x 1px and changed z-index)
    }
    then

    else {
    normal css declaration here so I can use top_up with default settings on all other pages
    }
    above ‘var = css’

    Hi

    Great product, but I am trying to use the popup for the onload in the body.

    Can you please tell me how this would be done?

    Thank you

  330. 330. Suzz 25-05-2010 22:48:52

    Answer to my own question (above)
    . I tried modal/nonmodal, different types, layouts and effects, all fail to show the popup over the flash movie.

    Finally this problem exists in both FF and IE.

    Any ideas on how to resolve this?

    Thanks again

  331. 331. Suzz 25-05-2010 22:58:54

    Great – the sample code I posted previoulsy trashed the message – obviously did not like the tags.

    To answer my own previous question:
    the onload problem was solved by
    onload=“TopUp.display(‘images/intro.jpg’, ‘title=GalleryBistro, type=iframe’);”

    Next problem I find is thew popup showing under a flash movie. Tried wmode to transparent, tried setting topup to modal/nonmodal, different effects, types and layouts. Even messed with z-mode of the movies parent div container to no avail.

    problem is present in IE and FF

    Any ideas on solving the popup showing under a flash movie?

    Thanks again

  332. 332. Suzz 26-05-2010 09:55:18

    As well as flash movies showing above the popup – I am unable to get the onclose callback to work.
    Code (tag formatting removed for display)

    >.script type=“text/javascript”
    function setMovieZ(z)
    alert(‘z index set’);
    document.getElementById(‘flmovie’).style.zIndex = z;
    (fn end)

    >.script
    >./head

    >.body onload="TopUp.display(‘images/myImage.jpg’, ‘type=image, onclose=setMovieZ(0)’); "

    The callback for onclose is not activated.
    I tried also onclose=\‘setMovieZ(0)\’

    Any ideas on what is going wrong here?

    Thanks

    Thank you for what I think is the best lightbox out there. I am having a bit of an issue, and I don’t know if it is local to my machine, but IE8 does not display SWFs without them being embedded in a HTML page. I am also getting the error message “Object does not support this property or method” in the file “fxc-clip.uic-resizable.js”. Not sure what this is about. I am onlygetting the error in IE.

    Any help would be appreciated.

  338. 338. Sanshokou 30-05-2010 06:26:11

    i am very pleased with topup and was able to get some of the functions to work. i host the scripts on my site.

    however, i would like to use the “inline” text feature but could not get the proper documentations for it.. can you help me please?

    I’m a big fan of your script and used it previously with great results. This time a new project and I’m running into a conflict problem. I’m not so clued up on js so hoping you can point me in the right direction. This is what I have:

    I tried using this but it didn’t help

    Any help would be so appreciated. Thanks!

    Topup is a very nice and complete lightbox, congratulation!
    But,
    I call an iframe topup window with a php content, and it seems that the page is load between 2 to 6 times when I open the window…
    Do you know this problem? How can i avoid it?

  341. 341. Venu Ananda 03-06-2010 13:19:09

    Top Up is not working since this morning. None of the demos in your website are working. I tried to download Top-up but the link seems to be broken. Can you please fix the problem at the earliest?

    Regards,
    Venu A.

  343. 343. Ryan 07-06-2010 16:27:22

    Is there a way to have the “x” moved to the upper right hand corner instead of the left side? I tried placing the CSS rule in the header of the document I was loading with topup but that failed to work.

  344. 344. ryanw 08-06-2010 20:34:34

    I love this plugin, but it runs horribly slow in IE7. Is there any fix for this?

  345. 345. Kristhal 09-06-2010 22:17:06

    hi! I was trying to find out if TopUp can be launched from a website made in flash using ActionScript3 and I saw that other people were asking the same question, but didn’t find an answer here :(

    I hope you can help me giving any ideas or telling me where to go and read about it.. Thank you so much. I really love your work.

    Regards from NY. :)

    How are you,

    I love your code but what am I doing wrong? It does not work on Firefox especially when I try to click the arrows to navigate through a gallery in the pop up.

    LINK: http://viktoriaq.com/

    Your website itself does not work on Firefox itself. Is it something on my end.

    Thanks a lot!!!

    @ups – Fix the height in long dom elements – just append this:

    ondisplay:function() {
    $(“.te_content”).height($(“.te_content YOUR ELEMENT”).outerHeight());
    }

    Ziet er strak uit man !
    Het enigste wat ik (in mijn geval) wat minder vind is dat het er te mooi uit ziet en teveel kan. Kan me voorstellen dat dit vreemd klinkt. Maar het maakt het geheel erg traag, en door alle mooie foefjes is het niet helemaal geschikt voor iedere browser*.

    Maar ga alsjeblieft door met dit project, want door mensen als jou worden de internet standaarden verlegt en wordt een punt zoals ik eerder aangaf verholpen omdat deze ‘nieuwe’ functies de standaard worden voor toekomstige browsers !

    *Ik heb hem getest in IE6, en daar werkt het niet helemaal jofel.

  351. 351. Walter Ferlazzo 21-06-2010 01:13:48

    Paul,

    how can I call a javascript function of the parent page from a TopUp window (displaying an iframe)?

    I tried with parent.myfunction, nut it gets filtered by TopUp routines and I get a:
    TypeError: Result of expression ‘parent.myfunction’ [undefined] is not a function.

  352. 352. Kyle 28-06-2010 21:55:48

    Having issues with the iframe not closing… I had the code inside my iframe with parent.TopUp.close(); and even that was not closing it… I’m not sure it seems to be a common issue. If you could please assist I’d greatly appreciate it.

    Thanks,
    Kyle

    Does anyone know how to fix the IE8 overlay issue without having to have <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd”> as the DOCTYPE?

    Thanks in advance.

  354. 354. Yohan 29-06-2010 15:59:10

    Hello, I got a problem while trying to simply use topup. I just linked the JS in my , and set up a link like:

    Hey,
    thanks for this script, the demo looks really awesome!
    But i got an issue : after inserting the script into my head section and classifying a link like you mentioned it in your documentation, it isnt possible to load the gallery because there is just a loading icon after clicking the image.
    I used your online version of the java script.
    Greetings

    Hi, Paul

    First, I have to say this is truely a brilliant piece of work. Great job! I love the design greatly.

    But, as I just found that, in your examples, it seems that in ‘dashboard’ mode, when I click the flash media demos, the close button on the top-right corner is partially covered by the media content, while it supposed be on top of the window. This is, nervertheless, just a minor problem.

    Another doubt is that, It seems in the ’Bruce Lee – Like Water ’ demo, you use the jwplayer, which as I have learned from their website, is not a complete free player, which does requires license fees in commercial use.

    Just my two cents,
    cheers.

  360. 360. Rob 04-07-2010 20:26:53

    Paul, great job! Thanks for letting us use your fine work.

    I have one question.
    When you look at the website:
    http://www.kortekaasinterieurs.nl/bar_restaurant.html
    you will see several pictures in a filmstrip. Several pictures per project. I want 1 picture per project en when you click on this picture you will see all the pictures of this project.
    How can I “hide” the other pictures of the projects.
    Is that possible?

    Thanks in advance.

  361. 361. Mischa 05-07-2010 14:25:44

    Hi Paul,

    I’d like to use your Topup-code, ‘cause it’s a fantastic code, but unfortunately it messes up my page.
    I use the switcher.js from Joomla and that works perfect.
    But when I include ‘top_up-min.js’ the switcher.js doesn’t work anymore.
    Can you tell me how to use these 2 scripts successfully?

    Thanks in advance.
    Mischa

  362. 362. Jake Marshall 05-07-2010 18:17:19

    We really like your javascript lightbox and it is perfect for a project we’re working on.

    But we’ve bumped into one problem..
    Our page loads all of it’s pages dynamically with ajax (external files, but loaded into divs). Across various of these external pages we call for the TopUp box to be opened, this works flawlessly, but the problem we are having is that on odd occasions the iframe will load the page that was called previously instead of the new one.

    So say I have page 1, with topup box 1.
    This works fine.

    When I navigated to page 2 to open topup box 2, it infact loads topup box 1’s page.

    Is there any way to fix this? We were expecting it to be something to do with cache?

    Many Thanks for your time and wonderful open source lightbox!

  363. 363. Helgi 08-07-2010 23:42:41

    What about “hideflash:true” option (like in prettyPhoto plugin) ? :)

  364. 364. darek.xan 12-07-2010 14:11:52

    I love it, but it doesnt work well in Chrome.
    Even on this site’s examples, sometimes doesnt load an image, and hangs.
    Chrome dev version.

  365. 365. sms 12-07-2010 15:30:48

    WhenI wrote the function on page load.. It works fine for images but when I tried to insert a link (URL with http://) it gave me error showing nothing..
    The error was TypeError: options.content is null

    Please guide me how to show a external webpage in iframe using topup script. And also suggest the point where I could put a delay for that particular lightbox to appear..

    Thanks!

    Hi everybody,
    i would like to know how i can close topup window from a link inside page hosted in.
    For example, if i use topup to open www.mysite.it/index.php, and i want to put a close button in my index.php, what method or function can i use to close this topup window?
    And if i wanna to close topup window and redirect my main page to another url?
    This trouble is gonna makes me crazy.
    Thank you for any help or attention.

  367. 367. Lokesh 12-07-2010 21:19:07

    I can display FLV video by including gettopup script but, not when I hosting the Javascript and images myself.

    I had included below scripts and created images and player in my prooject as specied.

    Thanks for your help!

  368. 368. Liam 13-07-2010 17:09:12

    Does the script need to use allowtransparency in the iframe?

    I had to update the script to get it to work as I want in IE8. The iframe was not showing transparent. The black translucent background was being masked by a white background.
    So I added

    allowtransparency=“true”
    to the iframe attributes after reading this thread http://www.dynamicdrive.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-2404.html.

  369. 369. Dean 14-07-2010 06:42:38

    I tried prettyPhoto in Wordpress and got some issues. Then I used your software here: http://www.wallgrain.com/contact/map/

    Your software works in IE too which was part of the issue. If anyone is using Wordpress, you can keep all the code but you will need to do these 2 things:

    Place the javascript style that’s in the body into a new .js file like: tustyle.js then link to it by writing this instead of: <!—
    tuscript();
    //—>

    Nice!!!!

    Click on “Atv?rt galeriju” (on image) to open image gallery and then on the second image it shows some javascript error.

  371. 371. Owen CK 21-07-2010 18:23:52

    It doesn’t seem to work well in Chrome, it makes the popup show with a width of 26px and a height of 0px, unless you click it a second time with it still open and then it will display it properly.

  372. 372. Rocky Durairaj 23-07-2010 13:14:10

    Excellent UI. Just what I was looking for. Great work

  373. 373. Paul 23-07-2010 14:17:45

    I want to use your very good little script to show a html page in a window when you place the mouse over an image of a question mark. The page would appear when the mouse is placed over the image then disappear when the mouse is moved away from the image.

    I’m trying to use javascript but having trouble getting it to work, any advice would be appreciated.

  374. 374. Alvaro 23-07-2010 15:24:27

    Hi,

    Im developing a rails project and I want to use top-up for creating awesome lightboxs! :D BUT I have a problem using it with AJAX link_to_function helper.

    I have a hidden div that I want to load with an ajax request and then show it up on the lightbox

    Im using the link_to_funtion helper in this way:
    <%= link_to_remote “[Choose]”, { :url => {:controller => “elements”, :action => "load"} }, :href => “#elements”, :top_options => “width = 400, type = dom, title = Choose element, layout = flatlook, resizable = 1” %>

    It renders this element

    [Choose]

    But its not working. Removing the onclick parameter, it works, so I guess it cant be used it that way. Do you how can I achive this behaviour?
    Maybe with ajax type and no rails helpers, any samples?

    Thanks in advance,

    Alvaro!

  375. 375. Alvaro 23-07-2010 15:26:35

    Sorry, this is the a lement rendered:

    a top_options=“width = 400, type = ajax, title = Hidden element #1, layout = flatlook, resizable = 1” onclick=“jQuery.ajax({data:‘authenticity_token=’ + encodeURIComponent(‘EIgIEFvgN+NesRuDpfORxqblYqwnuP13mxMUQubnJ14=’), dataType:‘script’, type:‘post’, url:‘/elementos/cargar_materiales?capitulo_id=1&categoria_id=1&elemento_id=9’}); return false;” href=“#materiales” [Elegir] /a

    Hi Paul Engel, I have found some problems with the last release, when opening in IE7 and IE8…

    Two things are happening:

    1. The lighbox open not centered, but higher left corner of the webpage. (I can live with it, no problem, but would be fine if it can be centered)

    2. Inside the lightbox we have a facebook social widget Fan Box, and a flash banner. Both the facebook iframe and the flash banner are not loading, not showing using IE 7 and IE 8. (this I really need to fix)

    Is there a fix or workaround for this?

    Thank you very much, great lightbox!

  383. 383. Marco 06-08-2010 20:21:15

    @244 andreas, 303 martinio, 609 halmighty

    You can workaround by omitting the ‘effect’ parameter within the toptions. I haven’t investigated if it’s specifying the effect parameter at all or if it’s a specific value (i.e. ‘fade’) for it that makes the light-box jump to the left in IE. But if omitted it seems to center just fine. Hope that helps.

  384. 384. Wizard 10-08-2010 18:19:29

    Thanks for this script!
    May be I’m wrong, but topup sometimes show window at incorrect position in IE6.

    link with this options show the window right:
    toptions="width=100px,height=100px,type=html,overlayClose=1,shaded=1

    link with this options show the window incorrect, it will be at top-left corner, any other effect except default (transform) leads to this bug:
    toptions="effect:appear,width=100px,height=100px,type=html,overlayClose=1,shaded=1

    Is there a way to include a minimize button?

    Is there a way to mitigate a web page opening to the browser? For example, if I put the path to www.twitter.com, it will open the pop-up in a new tab.

    I’m a big fan of the framework you built Paul, fantastic! One question: is there a way to force TopUp to ALWAYS be the window on top, as in nothing else can overlay it? I have a similar popup (non-modal) that triggers a topup window, however the topup window opens up underneath my other popup. I’d like it to open up on top. Thanks!

    Hey there,

    I would like to know wether it is possible to have only one thumbnail on the webpage with exposes a number of pictures that you can see one by one.
    With all the lightboxes i’ve seen so far you have to display all the thumbnails on the webpage. If you skip the thumbnails de lightbox doesn’t work any more.

    Regards Roger

  406. 406. Roy D Carlson 04-09-2010 16:06:15

    Hello. Couple of questions:

    1) When an image is clicked on our site and the Top Up class is called, how can I do a database update on the image? I want to track clicks (when a user clicks on the image to view it, a field is updated in the DB reflecting this).

    2) In Google Chrome, I think specifically, when a user clicks an image, instead of the image “top upping” and maximizing in size, it seems to get very small in size and disappear behind the rest of the text/images on the page. Any idea why this would be? The Alt text still appears above where the picture is supposedly being displayed, but the image is either very small, or not there at all.

    I’m implementing topup as product large view. it has an ‘add to cart’ button which redirects to cart page. The problem is that pressing ‘add to cart’ buttons redirects to cart page within topup window. Can I configure topup to get closed when an user press ‘add to cart’ button and redirect to cart page as normal window?

    Hi I’m Andrés Sanz from México, i’m an amateur web designer, i’m using your incredible topup in a kind of catalogue, the problem here is that when i use it in chrome it works perfect, but when I use it either in firefox or Ie it shows me a kind of blue box around my linked images.

    thanks for your help

  409. 409. ncc 10-09-2010 18:15:34

    How do you close the overlay window? I tried onclick=“TopUp.overlayClose()” and onclick=“TopUp.close()” but it didn’t work. Thanks!

  410. 410. Rich 12-09-2010 21:27:58

    Hey, I love your plugin, and I got it running for me, but I?ll just say, I think you need to revisit your set up instructions. They?re not clear at all. The images directory contains another directory called top_up, but it?s not obvious that that directory contains the dashboard directory, which is referenced in the CSS. You can?t just copy the images directory into your own directory, because it won?t work.
    Also, the minified version of the plugin wouldn?t work for me at all. I had to use the full version.

    Also, the language in step 1 with the ?*.js? is confusing to me. Took me a few hours to get this up and running hosting the files myself.

    Hi,
    I found toptions is very much suitble to use in my project. There is one question I want to ask is, Can I open a lightbox inside lightbox with toptions? and how?

    Thanks

    I’m having trouble embedding a wordpress page with your plugin. I first wanted to do a form but adding a script directly as a dom element made the plugin cease to function. So i checked out this example in your ‘leave a comment’ and noticed it links to /comments/new so I did the same thing that links my page, the issue now is that its displaying the entire page and not the portion of the window I want. As I type this i think i’ll try css to constrain the box but if you can assist that would be great. I just really want to be able to use this with a pop up form.

  413. 413. Karakash 16-09-2010 08:39:40

    I would recommend that you rework your setup.
    Its to heavy to understand when u do not know that much about js and websites.
    Please consider about it, and make short and easy complains :YY

  414. 414. Richard 17-09-2010 12:21:49

    I already use jQuery on my site; how should I use TopUp? Should I still include jQuery itself (if so; before or after TopUp?), or will TopUp include it itself? Halp!

  415. 415. Richard 17-09-2010 12:23:55

    Re Karakash (413) – if you don’t understand javascript or “websites”, then you probably should read up on the subjects before trying to use this.

    Hi,
    TopUp is very cool!!!

    I’ve a question…
    Can I show a php variable with type=iframe or other?

    thanx

    Hi Paul,

    How can I trigger multiple instances of TopUp with different images on the same page WITHOUT using gallery mode. I’d like each image to open and close separately.

    P.S.
    Thank you for providing an awesome script. Your hours and hours of hard work are greatly appreciated.

    Ray

    Hi! Yours is a wonderful work-
    I found some problems that you list
    hoping that there is a solution.

    How can I set some parameters
    the player to FLV:

    - skinBackgroundColor - skinBackgroundAlpha - skinFadeTime

    ps. There is a difference in JS
    releases / latest / top_up-min.js -
    and -
    Top_up-min(latest-zip)
    In this last IE- video.FLV – not working well.

    You can answer.
    Grazie!

    I use TopUp on a page with a lot of images. Thethumbnails are loaded fast, but when I want to open them with TopUp, the script is very slow. I takes several seconds to open the first image, after that the script does react a bit faster. When I remove the group setting, TopUp is like it should be when it opens just one image. So it only happens when I have a group of images. These images are mostly below 200 kb.

  420. 420. Michael Bardeggia 26-09-2010 00:48:48

    Is there a way to load a popup with iframe content – automatically when a page is loaded. For instance, to load a special offer when your homepage is visited?

    Here is my popup working on a test page (using a link) “Click to View” http://www.ristoranteverdicchio.com/video-pop-test2.asp

    but what I need is for the popup to load when the homepage is visited.

    Thanks, Mike

    Hi Paul

    Topup is exactly what I was looking for and has been implemented into my portfolio without a hitch. Marvelous, many many thanks!

    A couple of questions for y’all (prob very easily answered by you fine JS pros):

    1) Can you apply a URL link to the title and what would the code look like? I would like to have a link in the title from each popup image to view completed artwork in a separate window. I have tried messing with my old Milkbox code but have been unsuccessful applying it to Topup.

    2) Is there facility to determine where the title appears ie bottom of the popup rather than the top? I would assume this is configured in the .js but have not been able to amend it thus far.

    Thankyou thankyou!

    Hi Paul and all you fine people.

    This is my second post and still wanting to know if the 2 points above are possible.

    … However….

    I have run into trouble working my band-aide solution to the above issues. I have Topup successfully applied to my site, all links work correctly and site if perfectly functional.

    THE PROBLEM IS none of the effects I add into the (toptions="effect =) are appearing on any link. The Topup window opens fine with the ‘appear’ effect…. but when I navigate left and right the transitions are very glitchy and sometimes just flick from image to image. This is quite frustrating as I have determined the code to be the same as other sites using topup and those transitions when navigating between images fade perfectly smoothly between images.

    Can anyone shed some light on this please, please, please? The URL to my website is here. I am hosting the JS myself and have really only changed the positioning of the controls by 10px or so.

    I would really love these effects (clip, appear, transform etc) to run as smoothly as every other sample and site I have seen using this fantastic lightbox. Thanks Paul and all!

    Hi Paul,

    there seems to be a non-compatibility with IE8.
    When playing the Dark Knight example the timeline is shown in the centre of the movie window.

    There also seems to be problem with shading.
    In certain DOC-Types topup doesn’t shade all the web page. When you srcoll down, the zone that was hidden before won’t be shaded.

    Check out this example:

    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN”>

    #global {
    position:relative;
    left: 50%;
    top: 0%;
    width: 800px;
    height: 2000px;
    margin-top: px; margin-left: -400px;
    border: 0px solid #a9a9a9;

    The script is great! Just one issue: IE7.

    On your site the TopUp links work but are verrrrrrry slow in IE7 (fast in FF and Chrome)…. but at least they work! When I put the code on my site, the links work perfectly in FF and Chrome but don’t work at ALL in IE7 and I get a javascript error that says…

    Line: 221
    Char: 2
    Error: ‘dropmenu’ is null or not an object
    Code: 0

    Can’t figure out what has changed? I’m just using the default class=“top_up”

    The page that I have the code on:
    http://www.azcampers.com/lance.html

    The code is in the URL link of the graphic that says “Build your own Lance Camper!”

    Thanks for any help you can provide!

    Hi, I would like to ask about the lightbox. I Use it for showing another html in the lightbox, but when I add google analytic in the said html, it cancel out the .js.

    i wonder why? or if i can use the GA in another way in that page. :)

    thanks!

    Hey I created a web page based on gettopup and I am willing to donate some of my earnings f they are ever to happen, but I am having some issues with some of the code. For example, if I open a link to a web page with top up, it will open the link in the ‘frame’. If I close it and choose to open a different one, it will still open the original content. See for yourself at www.portaldock.com. Really hope you can give me a hand, thanks!

  431. 431. hans 06-10-2010 22:38:32

    And one thing more that i don’t want to reload every time a particular visitor visit my website.

  435. 435. suprsidr 14-10-2010 21:48:40

    Love love love the way this lightbox functionality works… in firefox.
    Other browsers, not so much.
    I’m writing content to an element onClick and then using TopUp to display:
    $('#popupBox').empty(); $('Hello/).appendTo('#popupBox'); TopUp.display('#popupBox', {'type':'dom', 'title':'My hello');
    This only works in firefox, other browsers show a collapsed box on first display, but look fine on second display. Like the content is not being written fast enough.
    @see login link http://www.flashyourweb.com/gallery2/cooliris.php
    Once logged-in there is much more functionality reliant on TopUp.
    Really do love the way this works in firefox.
    I would appreciate any advice.

  436. 436. Jimmy Z 18-10-2010 18:04:09

    It appears that this code is failing again. I love the idea behind it and I appreciate all the effort. But this is the third time this script has had a snafu in it in some way shape or form. I had a veteran javascript designer look at this and he does not know why this is not working any longer. So I have ditched this script all together. I hope you will improve it to avoid the failures it occurs what seems to be once every other month. I will be checking back next month in hopes you have fixed the issue.

  437. 437. Josi 18-10-2010 21:16:03

    First of all, thanks for this great script.
    I’ve been trying to set up TopUp.addPresets inside the tags, using


    put it didn’t seems to work.
    Is it possible or I should put

  439. 439. Rodrigo Balest 19-10-2010 22:24:01

    It seems my previous post was trimmed!
    I’d like to call TopUp.addPresets inside $(document).ready(). Is it possible?
    Thanks!

  440. 440. Charles Hill 20-10-2010 10:18:33

    Thank you for this great lightbox. Can you please tell me how I can set mine up just as you have for the comment link (the one I’m typing in now) and the Click here link below the download. Basically, I would like to have the overlay like yours, but to have the html web page load and show its true background color of white. Currently, the top_up image directories have images to show a transparent dark background. I just want the area outside the loaded webpage to be transparent. I hope I made sense.

    Thank you,
    Charles

    Toch even laten weten:
    Ik had heel graag topup willen gebruiken maar zolang ik jquery rechtstreeks aanspreek werkt topup niet (“cannot call methods on resizable prior to initialization;attempted to call method destroy”). Als jquery niet rechtstreeks aangesproken wordt, werkt jquery-functionaliteit niet … doodjammer. Bruno

  442. 442. kevin 21-10-2010 04:17:10

    jquery 1.4.3 support please

  443. 443. Renan 24-10-2010 00:12:49

    Is possible i change the " " to
    I tried but dont work. Is possible, with the same script?

  444. 444. Steve Marshall 25-10-2010 06:04:23

    Hi Paul,

    I got my camera club gallery viewer working fine. Thanks so much for Topup – it’s a great piece of work.

    Just one thing I’ve noticed – I do most development using Firefox 3.6.11, and everything works perfectly. But if I run my website on IE8, there is a slight difference in behaviour. When closing the Topup, it does not shrink back down to the thumbnail, as it does with Firefox. It shrinks off to some apparently random location on the screen. This is not a big deal, but I just wondered if you have observed anything similar, and if there is a way to fix it?

    Regards
    Steve

  445. 445. Steve Marshall 25-10-2010 15:03:33

    Thanks for Topup – it’s great. Just one little thing I can’t find a way to do….

    My page is generated by PHP. The code attaches a “title=…” option to the links, and sometimes the title text contains a comma. This causes problems – the comma and everything after it is dropped and does not display. Is there a way around this? I’ve tried escaping the comma with a backslash – no good.

  446. 446. liam 27-10-2010 12:55:00

    Hi,

    I changed to using jquery 1.4.3 using the Google link http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.3/jquery.min.js but this breaks version 1.7.2 of topup.

    the problem might be to do with .outerWidth() and .outerHeight() as this are not returning the correct values on line 895 of the source.

    I am reverting to jquery 1.4.1

    I realise this may not be a maintained product anymore but it would be great if there was a straightforward fix for this problem.

    /Liam.

  447. 447. Steve Marshall 30-10-2010 06:50:03

    For anyone struggling with IE8 when hosting the scripts yourself – I have discovered that IE8 does not seem to like being told about the images path using the ?images_path=…. on the src=… specifier for TopUp. You MUST set the images path using the script method, i.e.

    I hade been wrestling with this for several days – as soon as I did this, IE8 was happy. Hope that saves someone else a few hours of hair-pulling!

  448. 448. Steve Marshall 30-10-2010 06:53:18

    Sorry, previous post does not show the script fragment – what I mean is, you must put

    TopUp.images_path=‘whatever/it/is/’;

    in a script. It can be added after the TopUp.addPresets if you use that, otherwise just put it in a script by itself.

  449. 449. kevin 30-10-2010 15:55:37

    please update this script so it works on jQuery 1.4.3 I need to use the new template feature in 1.4.3 but topup breaks in jQuery 1.4.3

  450. 450. francis 01-11-2010 00:50:50

    Tried your lightbox. I’d like to work to avoid conflicts between mootools and jquery.

    I am already using jquery ui scripts for various stuff (I am a wordpress user).

    So I tried the simplest way but I got the following error :

    “cannot call methods on resizable prior to initialization; attempted to call method ‘destroy’”

  451. 451. Roy van den Broek 02-11-2010 19:16:18

    Great framework! I like it!

    There’s only one thing; when i try to open twitter.com in an iframe it wont’t work. If you only replace the url with (for example) google.com it does work.

    Something twitter specific?

  452. 452. Mike Baas 03-11-2010 21:38:43

    If you are experiencing conflicts between top_up and jQuery, the following combination of versions works well at this time.

  453. 453. Stephen Strong 04-11-2010 11:44:07

    Great Script,

    Is there a way to have it not do an “On Click” Function. Just have it auto load within a few seconds when people visit the page?

    Thank you!

  454. 454. Eric 04-11-2010 19:07:45

    Great Lightbox!

    I was wondering if it is possible to TopUp inline HTML? The HTML that I would like to show is in a hidden div.

    Thanks! :)

  455. 455. Eric 04-11-2010 19:43:01

    I found how to create a popup with inline HTML. I am using it for our FAQ section. One of the FAQs, however is very long. and ‘breaks’ out of the popup. Is there a way to get it to scroll if it is longer than, let say, 500px?

    Thanks! :)

  456. 456. Duffydodo 05-11-2010 07:59:13

    Hi Paul,
    I downloaded your latest version and tried your examples. Unfortunately neither swf, flv or quicitime movies work in IE7 or IE8. Seems, there is no solution for it or does anybody solved this problem?

    Cheers Duffy

  457. 457. thomas 05-11-2010 15:49:37

    hi, great lightbox. would it be possible to update it for jquery 1.4.3, there are strange bugs happening with that version.

  458. 458. Grant 08-11-2010 09:12:39

    Hi Paul, I seem to be having an issue with IE 7 (possibly IE 6 as well – I haven’t tested) and TopUp. It works exactly as I expected in Safari, Firefox and IE 8, but in IE 7 instead of brining up a modal window when clicking on the link it opens the link in a new tab. I have used TopUp elsewhere on the site in iframe mode and it works perfectly. Please could you help me figure out where I’ve gone wrong. website: http://www.nine-dot.co.za

    I am facing issue with getopup when i open it in restore window.
    Let suppose i restore window to 50% and then call getopup it is opening in there but aligned to the le left and when i maximize the window then i see its out aligned.
    This only happens when i open getopup in restore window and then maximize it,
    If i open it in normal maximized window then working just fine.

    I love this popup but it only works with the
    src=“http://gettopup.com/releases/latest/top_up-min.js” link

    When I try src=“js/top_up-min.js” it does not run. I have checked the paths and installed other popups that use the same path with no problem. I also put the latest top_up-min.js in the js folder. Has anyone else encountered this.

    Many thanks

    Maybe you can help me, how to fix that???

    Hey, love your lightbox! In my opinion, it’s the best. It supports iframes, flash, html, images, youtube videos, directly linked videos, etc etc etc…

    In addition it looks beautiful and has two theme to use. It’s very compatible and unbelievably easy to implement. I SAY THANK YOU x1,000,000.

    That aside, I’d like to know how I can change the look of the lightbox in dashboard mode. I’m trying to implement it into my website as in iframe, but can’t get the background transparent. I’d like the window background to be invisible. I got the iframe background to be invisible, the the dashboard-style lightbox itself still makes a dark box around the content. I’d just like to see the iframe content and the overlay like on this site:

    http://www.1×.com/

    here’s my site:

    http://www.thenozzle.net

    Click “login” on both sites to see the lightbox.

    Thanks!!!

    I have setup a jquery enviroment only, meaning I have deleted anything prototype for this application.
    I get the latest top-up from
    and everything seems to be working fine.
    One problem though. When viewing a group of images and using the arrow keys to move onto the next image, the top-up window moves further down the page for every image.
    Kind regards,
    Thomas

  465. 465. Thomas Schmidt 16-11-2010 10:33:30

    Hi Paul,
    The problem is connected to jquery 1.4.3.
    I switched back to 1.4.2 and things were working again.
    Let me know if you update top-up to work with jQuery 1.4.3.
    Kind regards,
    Thomas

    I’m having problems with the close_link.png image not being displayed on top of the videos. I’m assuming its an easy fix ( adding a z-index attribute ) but I dont exactly know where. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Again…. Thanks for a wonderful job. I had a problem with scroll bars appearing for videos and I found that this code fix worked for me :

    " .te_scrollable{/overflow:auto/} "

    instead of “.te_scrollable{overflow:auto}”

    Hi Paul,
    Just wondering if you are still actively maintaining topup. You have not made a release since March 2010 and it seems previous releases were more frequent.
    The problem I have now is that it does not work correctly especially in Chrome browser with newer versions of jQuery and jQueryUI. I’m using it in a gallery/group and it does open the first image (in a too small window) but when you click the next navigation, it opens the next image then closes immediately and does not work after that at all even if you click another thumbnail.
    With jQuery 1.4.2 and jQueryUI 1.8.2 it works ok but that limits me from using newer versions. If I use higher versions of jQuery I get issues like the one above and also in Firefox some issues where the image is loaded in a tiny window not sized correctly. With jQuery UI 1.8.5 I get script errors in Firefox, with jQuery UI 1.8.6 no script errors but broken functionality as above.
    I want to implement topup in mojoPortal content management system but these issues are blockers for me.
    topup is really nice when it works so I hope you are still actively maintaining it.
    Thanks!

    Hello,

    Let me start with saying: WOW!!!! GREAT PRODUCT!

    I just noticed, that when pressing the ESC button to hide the poppup, the onclose event gets fired 2 times. At Least in Chrome.
    You can try it on your own demo page.

    Erik.

    Hi,
    I Have a problem when i try to include topup plugin in my asp.net mvc project.
    With tu_iframe_800x600 class the page is display in a iframe , but height and width are 0px. Any ideas? Thanks

  473. 473. Swetha Simha 25-11-2010 13:45:20

    The topup has issues with IE6. Why cant they be fixed?
    Though IE6fix has been provided with, still the problems are there.

  474. 474. Ajay Lakum 26-11-2010 01:33:48

    Paul,
    I am using your topup code as a modal window popup. It really looks great and you made it very eligent looking and easy to use. Thank you very much…

    I use it to open a jsp which has close button with window.close(). When I click on close button the window/popup doesn’t close. I am using the following options to open, (toptions=“type = iframe, effect = fade, width = 800, height = 600, modal=1, shaded=1”). I don’t see (x with circle) either to close. Can you please help me how to close the popup window.

    This is how I include and I had copied the jquery folder too

    I love this top up funktion – works perfect – as long as you don’t use the newest version of jquery. Would be nice to fix it. :)

  478. 478. Jeff Lund 03-12-2010 16:02:04

    I LOVE TopUp! .. The only problem I have on a current website I’m doing is when it pops up my FLV video the video box has both horz and vert scroll bars.. I expanded and rechecked size samething.. how can I remove the scrollbars from the popup video player window…

    Thanks

  479. 479. Phil 04-12-2010 16:07:23

    Yes, with jQuery 1.4.4 this breaks down :( instead of popping up, the image zooms smaller and smaller until only the close button [X] is shown. Too bad, it was fun while it lasted.

  480. 480. Ryan 05-12-2010 00:15:51

    I see lots of us have the same problem.

    Since none of us can figure it out, it seems Paul needs to publish how to do this or put a fix in his next release. I’ve been trying his TopUp.close(); and it doesn’t do a thing.

    I’m trying to submit a form inside TopUp and want it to close when submitted. I have a form with onSubmit=“TopUp.close();” but since it’s on a different page inside the topup, it doesn’t close the topup on the parent page.

    Paul, we need help! Thanks, -Ryan

    @ Gary Atwood

    The video problem is more likely not related to z-index, but an issue with the embeds that causes video to overlay all objects in the browser. I would suggest adding the following to your object code:

    And following parameter to your embed code:
    wmode=“opaque”

  484. 484. Chris 08-12-2010 23:10:34

    Nice Work but i have some problems with you tube videos:

    1. it doesnt work in IE8 – if using top_up-min.js there is only a white frame – using the gettopup.com link i get a broken link message. in firefox all work fine.

    2. can’t find out why flash video will not display in fullscreen mode

    this brings up the question where to put flash parameters

    thanks and many regards
    Tim

  486. 486. leo a 09-12-2010 15:52:00

    i figured out why it didn’t work in firefox. i didn’t upload the jquery folder. i guess i missed that part of the instructions.

  487. 487. Thomas Schmidt 10-12-2010 09:42:31

    I just recently tried to install topup without the link to your server, and setup up locally on my machine.
    I am using it in a rails project.
    Topup was looking in the attachments/images/top_up/dashboard folder for the png files used when showing navigation etc. once the image is shown. Normally it finds them in the /images/top_up/dashboard folder.
    Is there a way to make this an absolute path in your programming, so I do not have to put the folder /images/top_up/dashboard in several places?
    Kind regards,
    Thomas

  488. 488. Thomas Masuhr 10-12-2010 14:57:02

    A great script. Today I tried it with the link to your server an later on I hosted it on my own server. I little bit tricky, but it works.
    Now I find out, under firefox, everything is fine.
    IE7 and IE6 do have problems to show the pictures.
    Safari is also fine.
    Can you give me an advise?

    For those that are trying to close an IFRAME from within said frame:
    window.parent.TopUp.close(); If you’re using Chrome, this only works for a hosted file and not from the file system.

  490. 490. Tim 11-12-2010 19:25:40

    Has anyone else noticed the hosted topup scripts failing, timing out and generally being unresponsive over the past 24 hours?

  491. 491. Paul Engel 12-12-2010 11:22:11

    @Tim: You were right! The services of the TopUp CDN (SimpleCDN) has abruptly been terminated. I have switched to MaxCDN yesterday. So everything should even better than before. See also my tweet.

    Greetz,
    Paul.

  492. 492. Tim 14-12-2010 13:13:41

  495. 495. Paul Engel 14-12-2010 21:05:21

    @Tim and @Michel: I was forced to switch CDN two days ago. Are you still experiencing problems? If so, maybe it’s a DNS caching problem? I haven’t got problems. See also my tweet.

  498. 498. Paul Engel 14-12-2010 22:50:18

    Ok, everyone! As I still get messages about TopUp not loading correctly (but it’s working fine for me!?) … I will try to resolve this! Stay tuned….

  499. 499. kr 15-12-2010 04:59:20

    This is the error.

    This webpage has a redirect loop.

    The webpage at http://cdn.gettopup.com/latest/top_up-min.js has resulted in too many redirects. Clearing your cookies for this site or allowing third-party cookies may fix the problem. If not, it is possibly a server configuration issue and not a problem with your computer.

    I have about 60 websites using top up and my functionality is completelygone on multiple PC’s. Thank your fixing this.

  500. 500. Paul Engel 15-12-2010 08:03:37

    Is anyone still having problems?

    Is TopUp working fine now?

  504. 504. Kaine 15-12-2010 16:44:18

    Hi Paul,

    I have tried using your TupUp which seems to work very well. However, I have tried using it with a CMS system where the images are being stored in an underlying database and exposed through a handler with the file extension of .ashx. For instance, suppose that I upload two files to my CMS system, Img1.jpg and Img1_thumb.jpg into a library called Lightbox, then to access these files from the root I would use the following:
    Libraries/Lightbox/Img1.ashx Libraries/Lightbox/Img1_thumb.ashx

    Now this works as the images render nicely in the browser. However, when I use your plug-in library with the following:
    <a href="Libraries/Lightbox/Img1.ashx"></a>

    Instead of rendering the larger image (Img1.jpg) in the lightbox display area, it renders the raw bytes, i.e. non-printable characters. I have checked that the underlying MIME types (e.g. image/jpeg) are correct, and they are, the browser rending the images kind of backs this up too.

    As attractive as the output is, it’s not really what I was expecting. Is it possible that the library is working with the file extension rather than the MIME types?

    Cheers,

    Kaine

    @Timothy I’ve found a fix for the IE8 flash issue. There is a missing break in a switch statement at line 572 of top_up.js. Here’s the fix for the switch:

    switch(type) {
    case “flash”:
    params.allowfullscreen = “true”;
    break;
    case “flashvideo”:
    params.allowfullscreen = “true”;
    params.flashvars = “file=” + src + “&autostart=true”;
    src = TopUp.host + TopUp.players_path + “flvplayer.swf”;
    params.src = src;
    params.movie = src;
    break;
    }

    http://core.pirate.lt/

    Image is not expanded when clicked on thumbnail, but it get very tiny. I tried a lot of things, such as manual set of widht height and x y, but it did not help. Is there possible solution? I work on this two days already and I am starting to loose hope :(

    this is an incompatibility with JQuery 1.4.3 and newer. I already reported that as a issue on github. Try with JQuery 1.4.2 – that works for me.

    Hello, I love topup but one major downside is that there is no easy way to bring it up on an “onload” function. I want one to appear as soon as the page opens. I’ve been looking for about an hour and all info about onload has not worked.

  527. 527. David Ollerhead 06-01-2011 12:57:37

    Got it!

    If you want to have a close button within an iframe to close the topup, the problem is the TopUp.close function looks for the function within the iframe, and you don’t want to load the topup library a second time.

    I fixed this by prefixing the function TopUp.close() with parent.

    So using for example onclick=“parent.TopUp.close()” gets the javascript to get the function from the parent of the iframe.

    Tada! :)

    David

    Those looking to disable “close”. In your head, make new style tags and inside them, write the following:

    .te_close_link {visibility:hidden;}

    This will hide the closelink from view and in most browsers, you wont be able to click it either. This works if your hosting or pulling from this site.

If I have enabled Featured slideshow it cause that images opened with TopUp Plus are not centered on the screen, it looks like left top corner of the image is on the center position on the screen and the image is not seen whole.
    If I do not load the slideshow script with featured slideshow then topUp works fine. Is there way to resolve what making this incompatibility? Maybe could help if the script will load only on page with slideshow only. But i don’t know how to do this?
    What could causing that the window with large image not showing properly, how can I get this to work together on my site?
    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks, Marek.

    This is great! Now, if only it would maximize to display my comment. I can’t seem to get it to work. Try the about link on this page:

    Thanks for the code, really nice one!

  533. 533. Marco 13-01-2011 11:02:53

    Nice piece of code!
    Just a question: i’m using the flv player inside TopUp.
    I noticed i’ve always to put a width and a height with digits, cause if i use the “auto” option, the topup doesn’t expand. The video plays, but i cannot see it, just as I used height:0 and width:0…
    Any clue?
    Here’s my topup options:
    toptions=“type = flashvideo, layout = flatlook, effect = transform, width = auto, height = auto, overlayClose = 1, resizable = 0”

    thanks!

    I need to setup online video for playback also on iPad – how do I implement the new jwplayer for flash & HTML5 video support?
    thanks!

  535. 535. omar 14-01-2011 23:31:32

    Is the development of top-up stopped?, it’s been a long time since the last update was publish.

  536. 536. Sotin 15-01-2011 00:02:34

    documentation in French?

  537. 537. Ricky 16-01-2011 04:18:58

    Thanks, this is exactly what I need. A multi type lightbox like javascript and free to use under the creative common license :D.

    Hi,

    How can i use top up to show external web page..

  539. 539. Michael 17-01-2011 15:11:42

    hello,

    I got a problem with IE:
    the lightbox opens the picture in the middle of the screen like it should, but then it slides to the the top left corner. Even if I set the x and y attributes.

    How can I fix this?

  540. 540. andris 17-01-2011 19:44:29

    Hi,

    Plugin looks great, just tested and it works perfectly, but can not use it because noticed tables, sorry.

    Why do you use tables?

  541. 541. Aaron 20-01-2011 19:48:01

    I am having trouble getting top up to work on my site. Everything works great when i preview it through dreamweaver, but after uploading, the lightboxes wont work. Could someone check out the links on this page to see if I am doing anything wrong? Click the thumbnails or the map it links…

    Thanks in advance!

  542. 542. Bob 26-01-2011 09:15:39

    Dear Paul,

    Love this piece of beauty. All I know is HTML and CSS, and even I got it to work.

    - Would it be possible to keep te image centered as you resize?
    - The picture is displayed in some sort of frame with shadow, would it be possible to make this frame transparent (without losing the shade)?

    If you would have accepted “uitgestelde bankbetalingen”, it could sponser some of your coffee ;-)

    Thanks!

  543. 543. Bob 26-01-2011 15:05:20

    Not until a few minutes ago I realized that i had a background-color set. So no transparancy on the shadows….

    The dashboard-style enlarges the picture too much for the window, so a scrollbar kicks in. This is due to the title above the picture and the ‘oversized’ closing button. So adding some extra margin would fix this.

    And would it be possible to add an option to show the percentage of the size of the picture when it is nog at full-size with a button next to it to maximize?

  544. 544. Chris 27-01-2011 15:14:36

    Love the effect, but I’m getting scroll bars when using the youtube video and can’t get rid of it… I tried copy and pasting your exact code in but still no luck :(

  545. 545. Troy 28-01-2011 00:07:27

    Don’t use this. It is riddled wit issues that aren’t being actively addressed. Specifically, I am seeing the shrinking-into-a-tiny-box-with-just-an-X-button problem reported above over 6 months ago. When I try to drag the box to be larger it is also resizing the image locked in a square without regards to the original aspect ratio.

    It’s too bad. I really wanted to use this but I can’t.

  546. 546. Lukas Jahn 30-01-2011 16:06:50

    Hi Paul!

    your script is really amazing, and its working perfekt with safari and firefox, but my problem is, that its just not working with ie..

    please have a look at this, and if its possible it would be nice to have a solution for that…

    thanks a lot for your help!

    By the way great popup.

    I’ve been playing around using it for youtube videos. I have discovered that it does not work for youtube video links like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p86iKFZAMI4&fs=1&autoplay=1 but it’ll work for http://www.youtube.com/v/BSprcnCuSAY?fs=1&autoplay=1

    You’ll notice one link has ‘?v=’ and the other has ‘/v/’ Seems this could be the problem, what do you think?

  549. 549. Peter 01-02-2011 01:09:10

    I have discovered that you can work around this by using the imbed link like:http://www.youtube.com/embed/p86iKFZAMI4?fs=1&autoplay=1

    Does anyone have a complete script that I could maybe edit?

    how can i call lightbox from some Flash file

  552. 552. Dinand 03-02-2011 20:08:36

    First, love the way topup works! It’s very easy to implement. Only need to get it working on the production site. Here is the problem:
    I am using Topup on my site www.flight-planner.com. It works fine on the testing site but when i upload the exact same page to the production site Topup isn’t triggered somehow. When i use it on a photo link on the test site the popup appears and on the production site the link is treated as a normal link and shows the photo on a blanc page. Any ideas on why this happens? The test site and production site are on the same server with the same parameters.

  553. 553. Gayle 03-02-2011 23:53:15

    Fabulous! Thank you.

  554. 554. Dinand 04-02-2011 08:24:07

    Problem solved. The path to the javascript file was not correct. It was pointing to an old location which was still present on the testing site but not on the live site.

  555. 555. Jo 06-02-2011 05:46:06

    I love this – thank you so much, Paul!

    I have the same problem as Michael in message 539 – window opening in the centre in IE and then moving to the top left of the screen. Does anyone have any ideas about this?

    Thanks again!

  556. 556. Jo 06-02-2011 05:54:17

    my popup is html. Scroll bar appears on the right which is needed. However, I don’t have a visible close button though one is there if you click in the right place. Is your scroll bar making your close button disappear?

    Hi there,

    Firstly, this is indeed a great plugin. Thanks for the effort.

    I have included the scrollto function in the iframe popup. My question is whether there is a way to trigger the popup to popup while showing the 2nd slide and not the first one. I hope you understand what i mean.

    Thanks in advance.

  564. 564. Matteo 11-02-2011 18:08:50

    Hi,
    first, thanks for your work.
    I have a question for you: I’m adapting your plugin to work with photojack (jalbum skin) and is coming out a pretty nice gallery. But, I have some difficulties:
    1-when using the default effect (transform), if I press an arrow or the spacebar on the keyboard, this makes the current photo to switch in photojack and the photo zoomed with topup cannot disappear; so, I decided to use the fade effect instead, but I don’t know which parameters to change in top_up-min.js to modify the duration of fade effect (I’d like to slow it down a bit).
    2-topup images are not in the default folder, i put them in /gallery/foto/top_up_images/
    so, in my file I inserted these lines:

    I tried to put them either before and after the inclusion of top_up-min.js, but no buttons shows up (I’m using default dashboard mode).

    Thanks in advance.
    Matteo

  565. 565. Ive 11-02-2011 22:10:45

    Is it possible to put hyperlinks in the photo caption ?
    I need to show previews of different work (for a group of writers), they ask me if it was possible that the user download the different files (for example: .pdf, .doc etc.)

    hope you understand my english,
    Thanx,

  570. 570. Kaven 18-02-2011 17:51:09

    Is there a way to force TopUp NOT resize viewed image to fit on screen? I’m using TopUp to show photos in a gallery and the author of photos want to show them always in full size and quality, even if it means scrolling.

  571. 571. Phelic 18-02-2011 19:05:49

    Hi,
    I really like TopUp, it’s wonderful!

    But I encountered a problem when viewing images that have a higher aspect ratio than the window. I think it’s a bug that images are only resized by height.

    I fixed this by inserting the following code @line ~1034 (v1.7.2) right before “setDimensions(dimensions);”

    // correct images that are still too wide
    var dimensionFactor = dimensions.width / jQuery(window).width();
    if (dimensionFactor > 1) {
    dimensions.width = dimensions.width / dimensionFactor – 20;
    dimensions.height = dimensions.height / dimensionFactor – 20 / (dimensions.width + 20);
    }

    I don’t know if this is 100% correct, but it works fine for me.

    Regards!

  572. 572. WillSmith 19-02-2011 13:55:40

    Hi! I’m just wondering if i can get in touch with you, since you have amazing content, and i’m thinking of running a couple co- projects! email me pls

  573. 573. Chris 19-02-2011 21:10:03

    First off let me congratulate you on a great piece of software. This is the best javascript gallery I have worked with. Unfortunately I think I have found a bug. When including ajax content with a group, after hitting the arrow button a couple of times, the topup box collapses and no content is displayed. You can see an example at http://www.fourthworldimages.com/gallery2.php click on one of the images and then hit one of the arrows a couple of times to see what I am talking about.

    Thanks,

    Chris

  574. 574. Felix 23-02-2011 18:36:15

    I have encountered the same issue as Phelic (Post #571) sadly his bug fix won’t work for me. (or I am doing it wrong?)

    Also, does by any chance TopUp not work wit jQuery 1.5? I tried to include in several ways and always encountered the issue that the TopUp box will load, however without any content.

    Thank you for your effort!

  575. 575. Oliver Vogel 25-02-2011 14:02:22

    Are there plans to support jquery > 1.4.2
    (1.5 for example)

  576. 576. Martin Mapes 28-02-2011 02:31:16

    Regarding #362. Jake Marshall. We’re having the same issue. It happens after navigating away from the page with TopUp, then pressing the back button. Somehow, the cache is retained. If I call TopUp.update() manually, I can make it refresh. Would like a solution or workaround. If I find one first, maybe I’ll post it here.

  577. 577. Martin Mapes 28-02-2011 03:26:45

    A followup to 576. The issue happens in Safari (for iPad and Windows) but not Firefox. We are using multiple iframe links with toptions. After navigating away from a page and then navigating back (note that this does not trigger a reload), TopUp always requests the most-recently-used link, and not the actual link associated with the anchor tag. Explicitly reloading the page restores everything to normal. Contact me if you want to know the URL.

  578. 578. channing 28-02-2011 15:07:17

    Hello hi

    Im using your top up in a custom google map thing…. now when u click on an icon it brings up a info window and inside the info window there is a link to street view- i have used you topUp for the street view -

    Now here is my problem – the topUp loads but it loads in the corner of the page, i can set the x and y but my page has been centered and will look funny if my pop up, pops up in random places …..

    Thanks
    Channing

  579. 579. Niko 28-02-2011 15:46:28

    Hey Every one. I need little help for x and y position on topup.I couldn’t figure out.how to put x,y coordination.if anyone write simple tu_iframe with x,y coordination on it.I would appreciated.

  580. 580. Niko 28-02-2011 15:51:19

    It’s me again.Also, i try to put JQUERY.MB.YTPLAYER on same html index file.it’s conflict with topup.Size of tu_iframe getting shirnk..I can’t run both jquery on same page.It is any solution for that.

  581. 581. Edward 01-03-2011 19:12:32

    For those who want to use jQuery version > 1.4.2,
    I have edited the TopUp to be run in jQuery’s noConfict() mode, so you will be able to run multiple jQuery at the same time.

    Edited js with example: http://cl.ly/4vtX

  586. 586. Patrick 03-03-2011 07:27:52

    I stumbled upon TopUp yesterday, using it with CMS made simple and it seems to work great – wonderfull piece of work!
    Only Problem seems to be that it is not working with jQuery 1.5+ As it seems the width and height properties of the zoomed image are set to width = 25 height = 0, which oh course just hides the image and shows a small blank box. Has anyone found a workaround for that problem?

  589. 589. Jack 04-03-2011 00:06:28

    Hi Paul
    What a great LightBox imple-variation! Thanks a million and lots of respect!
    Would you care to look at an issue I cannot find a work-around for?
    I have tested TopUp to do its magic on a test site with a series of thumbs/images in a certain identified div (using addPresets() to have them grouped). This really works like a charm! Now, I have other interface elements on the page that will change upon a click the contents of the carrier div with whole new content (a new set of thumbs and links). This replacement takes place trough javascript and a innerHTML statement. This works, but TopUp will not accomodate the new set of images/links. It DOES show the TopUp expansion of any of the new thumbs/images, but usage of the net/prev button will not work. I presume TopUp needs to be informed about the changes. But how to do this?
    Again: Kuddos!!
    Jack

  590. 590. VyReN 04-03-2011 05:26:21

    Love TopUp—But ran into a problem with FF Beta 9 (and earlier). I am calling jQuery and jQuery-ui before TopUp (libs=), and it is working great in IE8, IE9, FF3 but not FF4. No errors/warnings in the error console or FireBug. Tried several versions of jQuery and jQueryUI with no luck. Using the TopUp example it works great – so I’m guessing it has something to do with self-loaded libs being somehow different from the jQuery-UI libs. I need to load jQuery-UI for other functions so I cannot allow TopUp to include any libs or it breaks. Ideas?
    Thanks!!

  591. 591. Edward 05-03-2011 11:53:57

    @Niko, there should be no difference apart from the initialization part.
    Just replace with the new *.js, and change the

  592. 592. Edward 05-03-2011 11:56:00

    <script type="text/javascript" src="javascripts/jquery/all.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> jq14 = jQuery.noConflict(true); </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="javascripts/top_up-min.js"></script>

  593. 593. Edward 05-03-2011 11:57:11

    you can see my readme.html’s examples, I didn’t change any code besides the initialization code above

  594. 594. Jack 05-03-2011 22:02:04

    Follow up on #589:
    I found a solution is to extend TopUp with a simple method to clear the group object and to call that method after dynamically changing the page to display another set of images/links. The group object is populated on first call to display TopUp and it will be re-populated when cleared.

  595. 595. Guan 06-03-2011 15:58:20

    Lol, nice add-on, thanks so much. Nevertheless, there is a tiny bug when using it with JQuery 1.4.3+(tested with 1.5.1). When you try to topup on dom type (haven’t tested for others), using ‘transform’ effect, the final transformed TopUp dialog will always be zero size in spite of the size of dom content contained.

    This is caused by the way JQuery 1.4.3+ has changed for handling “width: auto; height: auto;”, a bug fix actually. A fix for this problem will be:

    to comment

    if (to == “top_up”) {
    jQuery(“#top_up .te_content”).css({
    width: jQuery(“#temp_up .te_content”).css(“width”),
    height: jQuery(“#temp_up .te_content”).css(“height”)
    });
    }

    in function ‘moveContent’

    Hope this can be any help of people trying to use TopUp with new version of JQuery. Cheers!

    I tried editing the dashboard .png files (bottom_left.png, bottom_middle.png.. etc), yet it still appears as the default dashboard layout.

    I have my images hosted on my server, and I am pointing the TopUp.images_path to the full URL… if I delete all the images, nothing shows up so I know it’s pointing to the correct path.

    How is it reverting to the default layout, even after I have edited all the .pngs to look differently?

  600. 600. Niko 08-03-2011 14:23:28

    What a nice library! I am wondering if it is possible to use it for opening external sites from a SSL/HTTPS site. For example if you are on a HTTPS site and include an external standard HTTP site via iframe, the browser throws a notification/error. Can this maybe be omitted by using this lib for popup?

    Hi,

    I want to use this to display a series of images without having thumbnails. So you launch, and flick through the images from a single link not a series of thumbnails. Is this possible? Great code btw!

    Hi Paul,

    I’m having an issue with the content butting up with the top and bottom of the window. It leaves no space for the Title and forces a scrollbar. Im using your releases/latest/top_up-min.js script.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Hello,

    Im having a strange error that i didin’t had earlier.
    On the site http://www.klimatdladzieci.pl/ i use a popup with iframe and in IE i need to call openPopUp() function twice for the content to show. For the first time the popup is displayed with his layout but it is empty inside, when i call for the second time everything works fine. This bug is only in IE.
    To call the function use in menu RODZIC I NAUCZYCIEL → forum

    Regards

    It looks like passing configuration parameters on the query string doesn’t quite work. I had to change the regular expression that parses the key pairs (line 19 in top_up.js) to:

    var pairs = ((src.match(/(.+)\?(.+)/) || ["", "", ""])[2] || "").replace(/(^[0123456789]+|\.js(\s+)?$)/, "").split("&");

    to get it to function correctly.

    By the way: that’s a nifty hack to slice of that superfluous “.js” at the end of the query string (probably caused by rails javascript_include_tag).

    I liked it a lot. I need some help.

    I want to pop up a frame just as i enter a web page(without clicking on any link).
    For example, I want to open www.mywebsite.com/test.html as a frame as soon as I enter www.mywebsite.com

    Can you please tell me how to do that?

    Thank you very very much for the script.

    Hi *,

    Topup is the BEST Lightbox I’ve erver seen. I’m using it a lot.

    But atm there is one Problem with the IE 9.
    If you click trough youtube videos they are grouped together.
    The first vid is shown in the correct spott(x,y coordinats) but when you click to the next vid its using the right bottom corner to show it there.

    Has some one any idea how to fix this problem?

    Best regads and thanks again for the amasing lightbox

    Hi,

    Since version 1.6.6, your Flash SWF example doesn’t work any more on IE (any version will do the job).

    Please fix this annoying issue.

  619. 619. L Greene 08-04-2011 16:39:50

    JUST TO SAY!!!

    I see a lot of people asking some questions that was answered from months to a year ago. Please put in more effort to understand the technology as well as javascript. Successful people sometimes make more mistakes to reach one successful point.

    Also a tip, especially since the advent of HTML5, you all should be taking advantage of the technology, it will end up being a life saver.

    When it comes to how your page behaves, especially when using TopUp, pay attention to what DOCTYPE you use. I have been successful using <!DOCTYPE HTML> which helps to make IE behave depending on which one you use.

  620. 620. L Greene 08-04-2011 16:46:41

    Hey Paul, I know your probably doing other things, just wanted to let you know we appreciate your work. Are your donation requests reflecting that appreciation as well, I do hope and I will contribute a donation to you cause this is the only modal I’ve seen that does the job. Would love to see some updates to this as well. Be well mate!

    I downloaded TopUp and applied it to my website (PicPods). This lightbox is really great and easy to use. I love it when people put time and effort into there work. Thank you.

    Hi and Great Job !
    I would like create a login box with Topup.

    Very nice job.
    I am trying to host the files myself but when changing the source from http://gettopup.com/releases/latest/top_up-min.js to the local top_up-min.js file everything is working except the x button and the arrows when adding option group for grouped links…
    I really would like to make it work but i can’t
    so any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

  625. 625. Francois Mazerolle 13-04-2011 22:36:56

    I must launch TopUp from the inside of a iframe ( a TinyMCE popup ), and the popup must be lauch over the iframe. To cut a long story short, it would be really helpful to be able to have a toption for z-index.

    Right now it’s hardcoded in a file that you ask us to load externally in most of your examples.

    Also, an example of the display method would be welcome in the documentation, because it’s the only easy way to lauch a topup manually.

    Hope thoses first comment will help improving the tools !

  626. 626. Christos 14-04-2011 01:46:23

    Paul is there any way to announce a solution about the problem of topup when hosting the js file. I mean the problem that the arrows that don’t appear.

  627. 627. Jasper 14-04-2011 23:24:01

    in comment #271 someone mentioned the issue with the box jumping 1px everytime you choose next or previous image in a group.

    this appears to occur in most browsers, and in my case i use the include from gettopup.com

    has anyone found a fix for this yet?

  628. 628. Tom Maene 15-04-2011 12:05:04

    Hi paul,
    This script works perfect, i used it for different things on my site, and i love it. But recently, i tested my site outside of Firefox (google chrome) and noticed the popups get under a flashmovie that is allways on my site!
    I read trought all these comments, and sow mentions of it, i tried the do the hack with the flash wmode: “transparent” – but it still pops up under the flash… is there a fix for this??
    Kind Regards,
    tom

    Hi,

    beautifull script.

    I have a question about using TopUp from a web form. For example I have a form like this

    ……….

    How can I open a TopUp with register.php using POST method to send information to that page?
    thanks,

    ………….
    <
    input *type=submit***>

    </**form**>

  631. 631. Dimitris 24-04-2011 05:25:38

    hello Paul, i found this script an excellent piece of work but it carries a disadvatage: it crashes when you try to load jquery into your page for another script (its automatically loading the pictures settng a 0 height and width which remains when the size is manualy defined). Is there a way to override it and actually load the jquery plugin into my page?

  632. 632. Matias 29-04-2011 07:56:26

    Hi, I have a web page, and I wish to use your script, in my localhost the gallery it´s working really great, but in the web page, I can´t see the gallery, I don´t see the images, or anything. Why? Can I do something? Thanks!

  633. 633. Vagelis 03-05-2011 20:27:50

    Hi. First thank you Paul Engel for this perfect js. I have a question. In my site I have an IFrame. Inside my IFrame there are some images. I have applied your script on those pictures but (naturally) the script “pops up” the images inside the IFrame. The problem is that the images are limited by the IFrame’s dimensions and of course only the IFrame is getting dimmed. Can you suggest me a way that the images will “pop up” on the “parent” site? Thanks!

  634. 634. Niket Kanoi 04-05-2011 10:25:00

    Hello – I am using the prototype version of the js and it doesnt work with IE. It gives an object error when I click on the img tag. Any ideas?

    Hi !
    It seems it s doesn t wok with the latest jQuery plugin ?
    I get :

    Line 284 :

    jQuery.each(topUp.element.attr(“class”).split(/\s/), function(i, c) {

    by removing everything ( :) ) it works, but the position is still fuzzy.

  638. 638. k 06-05-2011 20:42:49

    Solution :
    line 1055
    position.top = ($(window).height()-740)/2;
    position.left = ($(window).width()-1140)/2;

    as split doen t work : missing toptions[“width”] + jQuery(“#top_up”).outerWidth() gives 25 only ?!

    Hello,

    Really good plugin but i’ve some problem with it, i want to make some groups but it doesn’t work on IE8, it works fine in chrome. IE return me [object error] when i click next.

    Here is the sample i used :

    Can you explain me where i’m wrong ?

  641. 641. François 10-05-2011 11:42:52

    Sorry my piece of code doesn’t work …
    This is the piece of code with group and toptions not addpreset …

    This library is amazing. I am trying to use it on an iPad Kiosk where the iPad will not have access to wifi.

    I developed the website on a PC and got it to work with all the libs stored locally on the PC. When I transferred these files over to the iPad it didn’t work for some reason. I have confirmed the paths are correctly stored on the iPad.

    If I change the html file to look at the hosted top_up.js file on this site and connect the iPad to wifi for testing purposes, the webpages work just fine.

    It looks like the top_up.js is not not properly finding the jquery libraries which are properly stored in a subdirectory of the javascript folder the top_up.js file is stored.

    Any suggestions?

  643. 643. P. Buendner 13-05-2011 13:38:57

    I’m using the topup out of a Flash environment to display external sites with JS calls and I’m hosting the topup myself when I put the Images on a different potition other than /images/topup

    it works under Chrome and firefox but under IE it is still searching under /images/topup
    what is wrong?

  644. 644. Gianmarco 14-05-2011 16:34:39

    An excellent work.
    Just a question: I need to create an onload function that create a TopUp window after page is loaded.
    But when i add to body tag this: >body onload=“TopUp.display(‘http://www.google.com’, {type: ’iframe’})”< popup windows doesn’t load.
    Should i put the script in the head? If yes what’s the call syntax?

    Thanks in advance for your answers!

  645. 645. Gianmarco 17-05-2011 12:33:47

    Ok,
    I was able to load an image with the page with the topup script.

    The simply syntax is:

    NB: The ’ symbol must to be typed manually.

    Now why if i replace image.jpg with page.html and type=image with type=iframe the onload function doesn’t start???

    I’m going crazy!

  646. 646. Gianmarco 17-05-2011 12:34:54

    Syntax is
    >body onload=“TopUp.display(‘image.jpg’, ‘type=image’);”<

    On aimerait bien utiliser cette outils mais la documentation est super limite.
    Pas d’exemple en ajax et en html.
    Si vous cherchez à afficher autre chose que des images, vous aurez beaucoup de mal à trouver la réponse pour ajouter du html par exemple !!!
    Mais pourquoi les docs sont toujours aussi mal foutu !!!!!!

    To generate the top up. It appears fine in Firefox with the trasnparent background but in IE it appears white and opaque. Any clues. If allowtransparency works where do I mention it in the above link. Please let me know. My target page is generated programattically so I cannot hardcode the body with a transparent attribute

    Love this script. Nice job with it. I have one issue I’ve found with IE8. I have a page of thumbnails each set up with the topup css class. It works great if I click on one, close, click on another, no problem. If I click on one, then click another without first closing the first one, IE8 reports a javascript error: Object doesn’t support this property or method (top_up-min.js).

    How do I use this for Browser Sniffer?

  657. 657. Simon 02-06-2011 17:26:38

    Love top-up! Thanks!!
    Often find other plug-ins let down in one way or another. One thing which seemed to be missing was an easy way to use the title attribute of a href in the topup title (if using text links to link to images), maybe I missed something obvious? Expected an option such as readTitleText.
    Other than that tiny omission, A++!

  658. 658. Christoph 02-06-2011 18:28:26

    1. Is it possible to use topup with the video (an aditional object) tag?
    I really would like to upload more than just one format to be browser compatible.

    2. Is it possible to use jwplayer for Youtube video links? I like Youtube compatibility, but not their player…

    This would be more or less the video tag:

  659. 659. Simon 02-06-2011 18:32:00

    Following my previous post, if anyone would like to use the a href title as a fall back (when no image/alt tag), the following small addition works. Find the following line (459 in current code-base):
    if (image.length) { altText = image.attr("alt") || ""; }
    And add this:
    else { altText = topUp.attr("title") || ""; }
    Remember to set readAltText to true…

  660. 660. Dave Ulrich 06-06-2011 11:26:08

    Okay, I REALLY do not get it. I’ve tried all kinds of Lightboxes successfully, and this one works, too… sort of. So I’m not stupid. That’s why I absolutely cannot understand why my size specs are all jacked. If I do QT movies they always have scrollbars and weird margins. Even if I make the size specs oversized. Then, worst of all… If I link an HTML page, it ignores my sizes entirely and makes it a 0×0 box with no content. I even tried pasting the parameters from your demo page with the QT movie where yours works fine… still all of mine are jacked. I tried imitating your google HTML, nope. Size ignored. I really, really, really don’t get it.

  661. 661. Dave Ulrich 06-06-2011 21:50:21

    Yeah, I would give anything to have my 20 hours back. I have go in and out of everything. I have copied everything verbatim. I have tweaked, I have done all I can. QT movies do not display to size. HTML5 pages do not appear, and the blank windows will not even appear at the proper size. I love the look of TopUp, and it would certainly be my favorite LightBox if it worked. It claims to be so simple and easy, and yet I have found it more difficult, erratic and unusable than any other. Sidebar, since I suspect that it’s the CSS you “inject” in, why not just provide CSS to paste at the end of user’s existing CSS? Why make it blind and potentially override users main CSS? I am really sad this was such a fail.

  662. 662. @ommunist 09-06-2011 12:31:06

    Is it possible to get iframe content auto-resizeable by height if it grows because of internal content ajaxed changes? Like form changes its height because conditional fields appear below the defaults after user input.

  663. 663. @ommunist 09-06-2011 12:34:15

    looks like IE8 ignores specified top_up window placement by x y and places it to upper left corner. Safari works OK.

  664. 664. Paul 09-06-2011 21:19:59

    Sorry - trying to get this to work. When I click the image instead of popping up and image it seem to animate try to pop down the image until it disappears. Have not gotten it to work otherwise. Only difference is using asp.net and putting the js and images under topUp folder?
    Simple example -

  665. 665. Harro Raupensc hläger 15-06-2011 13:31:37

    Hi, Im using your script as a versatile method to do Popups in a nice way. In IE the mouse gets sticky sometimes. Is tehere an opportunity to get the issues with IE fixed?

    BTW.is there any possibility to talk about issues and enhancements via a forum or Bugtracker?

  666. 666. paul 16-06-2011 16:52:49

    Still waiting to hear back - instead of the image poping up it pops down and disappears?

  667. 667. nutman 17-06-2011 18:23:53

    Anyone getting the scrollbars when loading a youtube video, I managed to fix this by changing the ‘type’ from ‘flash’ to ‘iframe’. hope that helps

    @Paul, i had the same error. Use Jquery 1.4.2 instead of the newest 1.6. – that works for me

  669. 669. Christoph 20-06-2011 16:21:21

    Jquery 1.4.2 is needed. Does not work with newer ones as outpointed before, at least in my page. Got it to work with images and youtubelinks. Can’t use it with vimeo though. Somebody knows how to link them? Check my source code if you need help: Creative Blends

  670. 670. Christoph 20-06-2011 16:23:23

    Try www.creativeblends.tv or delete the gettopup.com in front of my page when clicking on the link above. :D

    Hey Paul, this is quite simply the most awesome lightbox alternative I’ve so far seen.

    Now, if you could come up with a similarly awesome image slider…..;D

  672. 672. Lesly 21-06-2011 11:39:38

    How do I make Top Up use Jquery 1.4.2? Hosting the files myself.

    Top Up works fine on Firefox/IE/Safari but doesn’t seem to display properly on Chrome. Image shrinks to a 1 by 1 pixel window.

  673. 673. Victor 21-06-2011 14:38:12

    How do i open multiple popup in a page using TopUp.

  674. 674. André 22-06-2011 16:02:01

    Found a bug with firefox 5

    with this code on a link:
    class=“tu_iframe_980x600” toptions=“shaded = 1 , overlayClose = 1”

    The scroll bar doesn’t appear anymore! :x

  675. 675. Laura 26-06-2011 01:53:36

    Great use of jquery. Thank you for your hard work.

    So I implemented this on a Wordpress site that is pulling in the feed for a public google calendar. I can successfully get it to pull in normal urls such as http://www.google.com, but I cannot for the life of me get it to do specialized URLs that google puts out for event information. An example:

    https://www.google.com/calendar/render?eid=cnA1aDFlcnFwYmhrcW8waGZiZnVocXRucDggcHJvdmlkZW5jZWNjLm5ldF9iNWdjOXE4dnAwcWJub25uN2s5bWVlbGplY0Bn&ctz=America/Los_Angeles&gsessionid=OK&sf=true&output=xml

    If you copy and paste this directly into your browser, you’ll see it takes a bit to load. If you then try to copy this into a href="" for a topup iframe, it won’t load the page at all. Using the exact same code, I can pull up the calendar.

    https://www.google.com/calendar/hosted/providencecc.net/embed?src=providencecc.net_b5gc9q8vp0qbnonn7k9meeljec@group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/Los_Angeles&gsessionid=OK

    I need it to load the specialized event page, but I’m a loss as to why this is happening. Any ideas?

    Thanks

  676. 676. Cem 27-06-2011 15:51:49

    Hi there,
    How do set it so when a certain URL is reached in the top-up it closes automatically and updates the background page with that particular URL in the process?
    thanks

    prejudice,
    Use your wonderful library to open a page in a popup.
    I only have a problem. I should put on the page called a button that calls the function to close. In practice simulate pressing the “x” at the top right in the page that appears as a popup. You can ’do?
    thanks

  678. 678. Felipe Fidelix 04-07-2011 23:39:46

    Can you add this feature, please?

    Width and height in percentage instead of pixels.
    Would be very useful. Thanx.

    I have a update panel (asp.net) witch is updated with diferent galery images. this works fine on the first galery but after i do a postback to the second galery the topUp gives an error when i click next.

  680. 680. techdev4 06-07-2011 19:57:26

    Absoulutely the best popup library ever!! The only thing I can think of that would enhance it is an option to disable moving the popup box.

  682. 682. Sheila 07-07-2011 18:43:49

    After it working for a long time, I too am seeing that FF5 is not showing the scroll bars. I’m hosting TopUp and I do have the latest version. Any fix would be really appreciated!!
    Thanks.

  683. 683. 2-Pher 11-07-2011 10:34:39

    Hey Paul,
    Just wanted to give my compliments and thanks for the awesome job on TopUp. I have spent the last week trying to find a popup window to work with my site and how I want to use it. I stumbled upon yours about 2 hours ago and have everything up and running already. It was easy and the customization is amazing.
    The one request for a future version would be to allow the popup to float as the user scrolls down or up on the page behind it.

    Thanks Again

    Under “Available toptions”, for overlayClose, the description appears to be truncated. It says “the TopUp will close when.”

  687. 687. Sheila 19-07-2011 17:32:01

    Paul, I really like using topup – thanks for making this available to everyone. It does however look like a few of us are having problems with scroll bars and FF 5. I’m using class=“tu_iframe_620x600” toptions=“resizable=0”. You can see it here: http://jdwahlantiques.com/folkart.php. Any ideas on what we can do to get the scroll bars to appear again? Thanks!

  688. 688. Stoney 20-07-2011 14:50:11

    I’ve encountered some problems when using jQuery. 1.5.2. The dialogs are not positioned in the center when viewing an image for example.

    Also TopUp doesn’t seem to work at all with jQuery 1.6.2?

  689. 689. Manuel 23-07-2011 13:28:51

    Please let me know if I can load pdf file in the popup. Your JS library Rocks!

    Thanks,

    This looks very nice and promising. Still I miss one thing lightbox2 has. When clicking anywhere else other than on popup the popup closes. Would this be possible even as setting?

  693. 693. Hannes 28-07-2011 14:23:36

    for those of you having troubles with missing scrollbars in Firefox 5.0 (like I did):
    you can workaround the problem as follows (I did not test it excessivly…):
    1. in your HTML page, define a js function ie
    function topUpFF5Scrollbars() { if ($.browser.mozilla && $.browser.version == '5.0') { $('.te_content').css('overflow', 'auto'); } }

    2. add the ondisplay toption with value “topUpFF5Scrollbars()” to your TopUp-Links

    Worked for me,

    First of all I would like to commend you, Paul, for creating such a great resource :)

    I have encountered a problem; In most previous IEs to 9, each pop up sticks to the left of the browser window after first being central for about half a second..
    Is this a common problem? Can you tell me how to fix it at all?

    Thanks
    Sam

  697. 697. Hannes 01-08-2011 14:32:26

    It seems, I was a bit quick with posting my workaround for missing scrollbars in FF5 on 28-07-2011… It worked only with the first click on a top_up link.
    At least for toptopn.type=iframe, the following JS works:
    function topUpFF5Scrollbars() { if ($.browser.mozilla && $.browser.version == '5.0') { $('div.te_content > iframe').css('display', 'block'); //$('div.te_content').find(':nth-child(1)').css('display', 'block'); $('.te_content').css('overflow', 'auto'); } }
    You’ll have to decide, whether you use it as it is (workes only for toption type = iframe), or try commenting the first line within the if-condition and un-commenting the second, what MIGHT work for other toption.type settings as well – but I havn’t tested it…

    The iframe workaround does work.

    Hannes

    Very nice script, easy to use and implement, lightweight, and intuitive. Just want to say thank you for sharing this with us all…at no charge… haven’t had a problem yet that a little thinking and tinkering hasn’t been able to fix. A true asset to the web community!

  699. 699. Xavi 04-08-2011 23:09:53

    Does anyone know why is the script showing an extra black just at the bottom of the image loaded?? you can see what I’m telling at www.metric72.com just in FF 5.0.1

  700. 700. Gaz 08-08-2011 14:01:47

    Managed to get it working with Vimeo, using the iframe embed code from vimeo’s player page. You can see it working at http://www.johnpfraser.com/composition.html down at the bottom of the page – the two cricket video links. I used just the iframe src=“…” part of the vimeo iframe code, not all of it.
    Hope this helps someone out there :-)

  701. 701. Zack Morris 12-08-2011 02:50:30

    I used topup a number of times and it has been my favorite lightbox for a while. Unfortunately due to the lack of updates and compatibility issues (esp. jQuery > 1.4.2), I’ll be moving on to some other solution. Cheers to Paul for making something so useful for the time it was :-)

  706. 706. Johan 14-08-2011 12:17:31

    I have one question if you do not mind.

    I am bust building a site (C# asp.net) and have a link which opens another page using TopUp. This currently works 100%.
    What I am trying to do is reload/refresh the page where the link exists (parent page) by adding onclose=window.opener.location.reload(true); but this produce an error i.e. ‘Error: ‘window.opener.location’ is null or not an object’.

    Any idea on how I can reload/refresh the ‘parent’ page when closeing TopUp? Below is a sample of the link.

    Your assistance in this regards will be greatly appreciated.

  707. 707. Johan 14-08-2011 12:20:12

    Sorry, seems the sample was removed, trying again with only the toptions portion and qoutes removed:
    toptions=modal=1, shaded=1, type=iframe, width=600px, height=260px, onclose=window.opener.location.reload(true);

  708. 708. Wil Brown 16-08-2011 13:43:32

    The close button still appears behind youtube videos.

  709. 709. Michael Kizer 16-08-2011 23:38:52

    I really like this utility, but it appears to be broken with newer versions of JQuery. I’m currently on JQuery 1.4.4 and pop-ups are now rendering as a very small box (really only the exit image visible).
    Any plans on an upgrade?
    Thanks.

    Hey Paul,

    Thanks for your great work! I have identified an issue with Firefox 6.0 on mac OSX. TopUp does not show scrollbars in an iframe when the content is greater that the height setting. It does show scrollbars when needed in Chrome and Safari on Mac. Works well on PC version of Firefox, IE and Chrome. Any thoughts or work around for Firefox on mac?

    Thanks again!

    Hi Paul,

    Thanks so much for making topup available!

    Just a couple of questions if I might.

    I am using a CMS called Concrete5. The JQuery file is inside the /concrete/js/ directory. My topup instance is inside the /zother/topup-utility/ directory.

    In the following code it works just fine if I get topup from gettopup but, if I replace the call to gettopup with a local reference to the jquery location (as in the code below) it doesn’t work properly.

    How do I get the following code to work locally on my installation? The installation instructions seem to indicate that I should copy jquery.js into the topup directory but that’s a wasted copy of jquery considering that it is already somewhere else.

    Can’t I somehow use the jquery file that is already present under my setup and link to it somehow?

    Seems the owner/author of TopUp is MIA.

    I have even tried to mail him directly and have not received a response yet since 2011/08/14.

    It is a real pity as this is a realy easy/simply/cool popup solution.

    Maybe if we flood the comments and his mailbox, he will return and upgrade/modify the component to work with newer versions of browsers and jquery.

  729. 729. Andrea 07-09-2011 11:57:06

    To anyone who wants to use TopUp and need jQuery for other purposes in their web applications, following the Edward’s comment below I pasted the initialization code I use on my apps to anyone who needs it.
    I use latest jQuery library (1.6.2) and I need to use TopUp in a certain area of the website, so first I load the latest jQuery lib, assign it to the var jQuery1_6_2, and then call the method noConflict(true). Repeat this for the jQuery lib that TopUp needs, and then import TopUp as usual.
    In your code that needs to use jQuery 1.6.2 lib, just substitute $ with variable name, and the library all.js needs to be the one Edward edited (comment 581).
    Have a nice day.

  735. 735. Krista 15-09-2011 01:17:09

    Does anyone know why when I close the pop up, the transform effect shrinks it to the top left corner of the browser, rather than back to the link that was clicked? It was working fine and then I customized it a bit and it started doing that. I don’t know at which point it started going to the corner, so I’m not sure what to change to get it back to functioning correctly. Any thoughts?

    Hi,
    TopUp looks very good! Unfortunatelly, it does not work with jQuery 1.5 or jQuery 1.6/

    Has anyone figured out the issue where the TopUp displays in a 25px wide by 0px high window, but if you click a second time it displays correctly? I’m using this to display a video. It only happens in Safari and Chrome, but IE and FF are fine.

    Does anyone know if you could create a scroll box or whatever is called. for example:

    hbo.com

    the scroll box on the bottom?

    Hey,
    im havin trouble tryin to use “onclose” in a topup preset:

    The closeRefreshOpenBack function gets executed when the page loads. Its supposed to only start when a topUp gets closed.
    Any hints?

  741. 741. James Stansell 29-09-2011 21:12:26

    Trying to roll out a change to production, using TopUp, but QA has found a problem with MSIE 9.

    We use shaded: 1, overlayClose: 1 and in MSIE 9 the gray shading is “stuck” at the top of the page, for the size of the screen.

    Appreciate any help!

  742. 742. James Stansell 30-09-2011 18:08:22

    Adding special MSIE handling (same as TopUp already did) seems to work for me.

    var ie9fix = ‘#tu_overlay{position:fixed}’;

    Hello. Does this TopUp can work with Wordpress? I just what to put on my site that PopUp with Google window? Thank you

  744. 744. Biecoblu 02-10-2011 22:26:22

    Your software seems to be wonderful, if only it was more easy for non-programmers to follow the instructions… I like to use iWeb for my sites because it is very simple to use… Would it be possible to have simpler instructions for people like me ? Thank you a lot

    Hi Dear

    Hope you are fine. I was amazed by your lovely work on the POP UP.
    All my company collegues like it very much and will recommend to use to other friends.

    I Really Appreciate your work.

    We are trying implementing it on our Live site.

    Can you do me one favour, I got one problem and unable to solve it.

    Problem: I want to place a button on the Pop Up and after after clicking that button on the POP UP, I want to close the POP UP and REFRESH the parent window.

    How can we have this feature on your POP UP.

    I have used your POP UP in the following way

    1) Insert following snippet at the top

    2) Place Where you want to Use It.

    So, How can I have button on the ABC.aspx (Pop Up) and after after clicking that button Parent Window is refreshed. Parent window is from the Page I have put the above code SNIPPET in (1).

    Hello Paul,

    Great plugin! Like everything of it, but have a question. While testing noticed that if an image is shown and move the mouse scroll button, the image move as the page scrolls. Is it posiible to “stick” the image at it’s position (centered) while scrolling? The image can disappear from view, if there is no overlay and no auto-close, user can click on links or images, but if an o verlay is used, the user can get ‘confised’ if no longer can navigate. Hope this make sense. TIA. Regrads, Oscar.

    Hello,
    This is an amazing script i have been using.
    But as per the links are linked into iframes which many bigger sites dnt allow to put up themself in iframes like google.com which you used on your main page, twitter youtube and many more.
    So is there a way we can change this iframe to something different and load this site on our page itself using your script.

    Thank You for your wonderful script and this kind support.

  749. 749. Thomas 21-10-2011 01:03:31

    Hey Paul,

    Allereerst props voor je script, het ziet er super uit!

    Ik heb je script gebruikt voor een website waarin een form zich opent in een TopUp pop-up venster. Nu wil ik graag dat de popup zich sluit nadat ik ge-submit heb en de nieuwe pagina geladen wordt in een normaal venster.

    Hoe krijg ik dit voor elkaar?

    Groeten,
    Thomas

  750. 750. Sateesh 21-10-2011 15:47:12

    The topup popup tool is very useful. However, I would like to invoke the popup after certain duration without user performing any clicks. Is it possible ? If yes/no please respond ASAP.

  751. 751. Goran 21-10-2011 15:47:40

    If you can’t use this on a page that already got jQuery included I don’t see any use for this…
    I see many ppl ask about that, but no1 seems to care to give a answer.

  752. 752. Alec 25-10-2011 12:18:49

    Hey I have updated my jQuery plugin to the latest version
    1.6.4 and your plugin no longer works with the latest version of Jquery.
    Please could you fix this issue or give me instructions to fix it myself..

    I am only using the top_up-min.js script. I am not using any others.

    I look forward to hearing from you.
    Thanks.

    Hey everyone. I figured out how to fix the scroll bars appearing. Make sure your toptions are immediately after the a and before the href in your link.

  756. 756. Calen 26-10-2011 21:19:01

    Sorry, that doesn’t work. it still appears in safari.

    Hello Paul,

    Firstly, many thanks for this plugin, it’s amazingly efficient.
    I’ve got a small issue with it : some scroll bars are shown around the YT popup I created with TopUp. The issue appears with different size for the YouTube video.

    Have you got any idea to remove these bars?

    Many thanks Paul.

  758. 758. matej116 29-10-2011 21:33:13

    Hi, great plugin, but in chrome (I tried in only in chrome) it shows a zero size when I clicked on a image for two times. Can you fixed it please?

  759. 759. bettina 30-10-2011 22:54:04

    Dear Paul,

    after a long search I’ve finally found what I was looking for, thank you!! I’m an absolutely rookie in building websites, but I was able to build your script in my site. So it’s really pretty easy to built in, thank you for that, too.
    But I have a problem… the pictures are opening always in a new window, not as an overlay. I can’t find the error… can you help me, please?

    Thanks
    Bettina

    Hi Paul,

    I have used your Topup JS Library in http://www.sswebworks.in . Its very amazing library that I have used till now. Thanks for giving such a nice and easy to use library.

    I have one issue, When I try to use your library in contactus page, it is not working as it already has JQuery for Input Fields validation and the version of JQuery being used is 1.6.×. When I use older JQ framework like versions which are less than 1.4.2 then topup is working fine. Could you please fix the issue ?

    Thanks

  766. 766. Elango 10-11-2011 04:33:33

    For those of you who are having problems with images being displayed beneath a flash video, the following worked for me. All you need to do is change your embed code for the video. You need to add the wmode=transparent lines for both the OBJECT parameters AS WELL as the EMBED line. An example:

  769. 769. John Lyon 15-11-2011 23:41:45

    Sorry, forgot my code tags, the example:

  772. 772. Mike 21-11-2011 13:28:23

    Just got two questions.

    1.When Chrome or Mozilla is used the popup is displaying the Flash swf.
    However when IE9 is used I see an empty transparant windows. On another machine the JWplayer is started but doesn’t show the Flash swf.

    2. Currently the link is created via ‘’ + getFile(cellValue) + ‘“>Link’

    How can I show the TopUp window via jQuery of this link (and options)?

    It seems like Paul lost interested in TopUp almost a year ago. He doesn’t respond to emails, post on this page or update TopUp anymore.

    That’s a real bummer – TopUp is a lightbox that really stands out from the crowd, but has become more or less useless now ;(

    I sincerely hope that someone picks up this project where Paul left it.

    Anyone? I wish I could do it myself, but I’m afraid my jQuery skills are too poor for this.

  775. 775. Pedro 26-11-2011 03:04:09

    I was wondering if your light box can handle pop ups of a picture, description and link or form.
    I have been looking at a number of lightboxes which are very difficult to configure.

Also, is it possible to provide some more examples. Especially, how to use TopUp to implement the “Inline DOM example” you have in the Home page of this site. Thanks a lot!
