Fancybox IE 7

[andy]

I am trying to figure out why IE 7 always fades to white between
transitions and not any other browser?

Here is my gallery:

I am trying to produce the effect of the image only changing while the
blue frame with the logo stays static - everything works well in FF
and webkit - only IE 7 seems to have a problem.

Any ideas what I can do to fix the fade to white??

Thanks

a workaround for your issue (fancybox 1.2.1) is

1. edit your fancybox.js file (no pack)

2. around the line 30 find:
var isIE = ($.browser.msie && parseInt($.browser.version.substr(0,1))
< 8);

3. change the last value (8) to 7 so you get
var isIE = ($.browser.msie && parseInt($.browser.version.substr(0,1))
< 7);

NOTE: if you want the same effect for IE6 then set the value to 6 BUT
your fancyclose (png) button won't be transparent - you may need to
edit it (photoshop or gimp) and save it as gif and make the proper
changes to your css file

4. save your js file and optionally go to your html file

5. optional - I saw you have edited the fancybox css file but be sure
to set:

div#fancy_bg {display: none;}
div#fancy_content,
div#fancy_inner,
div#fancy_outer {background-color: transparent; background-image: url
(); border: 0;}

6. optional: set fancybox 'padding' to 0 (zero) to align the
fancyclose button
