Jacine,

I need your help on another issue. When an image is displayed using Thickbox, the primary nav bar (menu_bar.png) stays on top of the image (menu_bar_through_thick-box.png) vs. moving behind the image. This issue is in IE 8 in FireFox. Please see the 2 attched images. I would appreciate your help as soon as you get a chance.

Thanks!
Roman

I never claimed this theme will support every module under the sun, so please don't assume it's a bug and it's definitely not critical.

This is a z-index issue.

Find out what the ID/Class is for the thickbox overlay and set z-index to something higher than the #navigation. I think it's #TB_overlay or something. So do something like:

#TB_overlay {
 z-index: 1002;
}

Jacine, thanks for your suggestion! I'll give it a try.

Also, I do appreciate the excellent work you did in building this theme - having gone through most of the other themes, Sky is the best theme out there! It is also very well architected and designed. So, I certainly meant no disrespect or lack of appreciation by filing my issue as a critical bug.

I guess, having been on the receiving side as well, one tends to assume that if something doesn't work as intended at the UI level in one theme vs. another theme then it is a UI bug. And "criticality" is relative - I am trying to roll out a website with your theme and, therefore, anything that prevents from going "live" is critical.

Once again, thanks for building a great product and thanks for the pointer to fixing my issue. Let me know if I can be of any help. Roman

Hi everyone. I just wanted to let you know that this method worked for me.

I wanted to point out that I set the z-index for the various aspects of Thickbox in thickbox.css (the overlay, the load bar, the window) at increasingly higher values. Otherwise, the new z-index of overlay as described above will lay over everything--including the loadbar, the window, and picture.

Make sure the load bar and window have higher values than overlay, and that overlay has a higher value than the navigation.
