IE8 has been in release candidate status for a long time now. Today IE8 is final which means millions of people will be upgrading.

Any site using Shadowbox will now be broken. We really need a fix!!!!

I agree!

I think I already found the solution to one problem, replace the following part (almost at the beginning of the script):

setStyle:function(C,B,D){if(typeof B!="object"){var A={};A[B]=D;B=A}jQuery(C).css(B)}

With this:

setStyle:function(C,B,D){if(D != "NaNpx"){if(typeof B!="object"){var A={};A[B]=D;B=A}jQuery(C).css(B)}}

jQuery throws an exception when you pass "NaNpx" as a CSS value and that's exactly what Shadowbox does.

I also encounter another error: my WMV movies within a shadowbox don't play anymore.

Thanks,
Thomas

Thanks Thomas,

I'll give that a try. I am pretty sure setStyle was throwing the error for me too.

And what if one uses the standard adapter?

Even the shadowbox homepage does not work anymore

At the moment I am trying out lightview, works on all browsers, and looks nice

Work around, try:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title></title>

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />

Jeps, that works, for the moment, but what if the next IE release stops with the emulating?

If no action is taken right now, in the future we will go really wrong, I already switched to another "box"

The if(D != "NaNpx"){} fix works on the setStyle function... Thanks! I think in my case the variable was H not D but it definitely worked.

Hi all,

to fix the IE8 problem, add the following to your skin css file:

#shadowbox_title {
border: 0px solid;
}

#shadowbox_info {
border: 0px solid;
}

IE8 gets border-top-width and border-bottom-width as medium if it is not set.

I am curious about any "fixes" for the IE 8 issue.
#shadowbox_title and #shadowbox_info are already in the skin.css. Adding them a second time or merging them into the existing sections doesn't make any difference. I am confused, am I using a different shadowbox? The setStyle fix is to change the function to setStyle:function(C,B,D){if(D != "NaNpx"){if(typeof B!="object"){var A={};A[B]=D;B=A}jQuery(C).css(B)}} ... I assume this fix is done in shadowbox-jquery.js.
My set syle function is this: setStyle: function(el, style, value){
if(typeof style != 'object'){
var temp = {};
temp[style] = value;
style = temp;
}
jQuery(el).css(style);
},
Looks similar.... but it cant help cauze I dont use jquery. So I modified shadowbox-base.js setStyle fnction to check if value != "NaNpx" and that dont work either.

The only workaround fix is <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" /> .

Now I am getting a weird situation where it's working in IE8 but not IE7:

Hopefully I get it fixed before any of you look at it, but if not, suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, Christian,

there is the doctype missing and therefor your site is running in quirks mode. Just add a doctype aboce the html tag.

Best regards
