Hey.

I have a little problem with "sIFR" and "thickbox".
On my frontpage all my node titles are made via "sIFR". I also use the "image" module to attach images to my nodes. Now the "image" module also puts some small preview-thumbnails on my frontpage, but when I click on them, "thickbox" opens and displays the origiinal/larger image. So far so good.

But the problem is that not the whole background turns grey. Everything except the "sIFR" fields. they remain white and in the foreground. Is there anyway to have "thickbox" be on top of even the "sIFR" fields?

Here's the link to the problem: http://www.electroniques.de/content/dcms/

Maybe there's a way for the "image" module NOT to show the thumbnail on the frontpage?!?

Thanks in advance!

I don't know about sIFR per see. However, since it's using Flash, you will have to make sure that it's loading the wmode parameter that was introduced in Flash 6. This mode renders Flash object in a DHTML compatible manner.

<param name="wmode" value="transparent">

You will probably have to patch sIFR and make sure it is loading the wmode parameter. Once this parameter is loaded, any thickbox and it's background will display on top of your Flash objects.

I did install sIFR and tried it.

sIFR support the wmode transparent, after all. Just make sure to select "transparent" background when defining a rule, even if your web page background is white.
