Description
LeftRightMinds (Vancouver - Canada) has sponsored some great improvements for Drupal Thickbox module :
- support for flashplayers (at now Flowplayer and Mediaplayer are supported)
<a href="/files/audio/myaudiofile.mp3?width=200&height=20&shownavigation=true&showdigits=true&showstop=false&usefullscreen=false" class="thickbox-flashplayer" title="Audio link">Audio link</a>
<a href="/files/videos/myvideofile.flv?width=400&height=300&usefullscreen=false" class="thickbox-flashplayer" title="Video link">Video link</a>
Width and height are optional. If not provided, the default values inserted in settings will be used.
The url must be absolute and you can pass on the url the parameters for the player you decided to use in the settings.
To use it create an url like this :
<a href="node/1?width=100&height=100" class="thickbox-nodebody">Launch popup</a>Instead of node/1, you can use also the url alias for the node :
<a href="home?width=100&height=100" class="thickbox-nodebody">Launch popup</a>Width and height are optional. If not provided, the default values inserted in settings will be used.

Roberto,
Will there be a patch forthcoming with your changes?
#2
Yes, it would be good to see a patch. Also, when you say node body, does this updated module fetch the content from the database or does it run it through the templating system first? I'm wondering how much style control you get over the node content?
#3
I'm also hoping these features will be contributed as a patch. Announcing these features here (and in the handbook pages) and hosting a forked version somewhere else breaks my heart a little.
#4
Ok, I'll provide a patch.

Hi.
I created a patch against the last development version. See the attachment.
