Has anyone else found an issue when this module is installed with the Zen theme and there is content in the right-sidebar?

In my case, it sends the menu and right-sidebar to below the footer. Does anyone know a fix?

Hi Andrew

Where exactly are you embedding the popup content, and what type of content are you embedding?

Title: Does not work with Zen theme with right-sidebar enabled » Cross broswer compatability issues

I decided to try this on a clean theme installation (not just Zen) to test the cross-broswer compatability.

I created a new blank theme with no CSS or formatting (just the .info file).

I embedded the popup into a CCK textfield and displayed the full node - the popup appears in the content region of the theme.

IE 6.0
- The text surrounding the pop-up clusters around and it does not pop-up. (see ie6-popup.PNG image attached)
(I found this was the same problem I was getting with the Zen theme as well)

Opera 9.64 (most recent)
- The pop-up does not work at all when clicked.

In FF, Chrome and Safara it works perfectly. The other other-browsers-popup.PNG image attached is how it appears in all other broswers except for IE6.

EDIT: I discovered the error was due to trying to use <a href=""> in the popup. Does anyone know the correct markup to get it to work?

Once I removed the <a> tags, I did find the following issue though:

  • For Opera 9, the popup completely covers the popup trigger words I have clicked, so I cannot close the popup.

The popup code I am using is the following:

This is an example of a [popup text='A tooltip is a common graphical user interface element. It is used in conjunction with a cursor, usually a mouse pointer. The user hovers the cursor over an item, without clicking it, and a small hover box appears with supplementary information regarding the item being hovered over.' effect=fade title='tool-tip' activate=click] that you can put your mouse-over to view.

If you want to popup content containing any markup, I suggest to rather pupup a node or content generated using the php type popup. The text type is purely for plain text (I've updated the documentation accordingly).

For the Opera issue re. the trigger being covered, try explicitly setting the origin and expand attributes.
I'm having difficulty replicating this in Opera 9.64, both Windows and Mac versions, so I'll investigate further if anyone else runs into this.

I resolved the issue with Opera by making the surrounding <p> an inline element.
