Hoverbox Package

[bbftx]

Has anybody been able to successfully use the Hoverbox Package in Flux
on a webpage?
Flux allows me to "Install" Hoverbox using the "Packages" button, but
if I open an html page and select "Packages", the Hoverbox option is
grayed out and can't be selected. Other packages show the usual black
link and can be inserted.
I have successfully copied in hoverbox code from other sources, and it
seems to work fine. Is there a bug in the Flux version of the
Package?
cheers,

bbftx,

 

Well, I've tried to install and configure a Hoverbox gallery, and I also encountered problems - though slightly different then you.  Installing the package copied the directories into my project, and put "Hoverbox" along with the two examples in the Plugins drop-down list.  However, clicking on either of the examples produced no effect at all.  When I examined the example's code, I found that the path to the example images was incorrect.  But, even when I fixed the path, the examples still did nothing when selected from the drop-down list.

 

When I examined the examples further, and this is what I discovered: Hoverbox is an inage display technique that employs CSS.  That CSS file is setup to require a gallery to be in an unordered list with the classname of "hoverbox", and each list item to be contained in a link.  Each list item must have two image tags that have their src attribute set to the same image.  The second image tag must have a classname of "preview". 

 

I did a screencast on how to set this up using Flux: http://flux-app.wikispaces.com/Hoverbox+Setup .  I know that you got it to work, but I made the video to help others that might not be as experienced.

 

Hope it helps,
