(PENDING | SOLVED) IE7 Lightbox and shadow problem was created by flits
Hope someone is willing (and has the time) to help me out or to point me in a direction where I could find the solution. I tried searching this forum, google, read each and every comment at extension.joomla.org but I could not find a solution.
As mentioned in the troubleshooting, I had to remove the XML declaration to get this mambot to work in Internet Explorer v7. With the declaration only the shadow of the tumbnails scrolled.
After removing the declaration a new issue appeared.
The thumbnails shadow becomes white and the lightbox only displays a small ‘dark background’ effect at the top of the page.
I am currently building the site and therefor is not online for the public
I included some screenshots to clarify what I mean.
With or without the XML clarification Firefox and Internet Explorer 6 display the content as supposed to, but it seems there is an incompatibility with Internet Explorer v7.
Any help is much appreciated.

The only thing thats seems to have affect is removing this line from the index.php
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

It's pretty much the same issue as this topic: forum.joomlaworks.net/index.php?topic=46.0
But I found the problem!
That is the team at www.egreenonline.com found the problem and solved it!
Here's what's need to be done to fix this problem:
Open mambots\content\plugin_jw_sig\sig.css
Goto line 6 and remove: position:relative;
Even the DOCTYPE and XML clarification could be left where it was!
Thank me for sharing the info, thank Joomlaworks for this great mambot and thank the team at www.egreenonline.com for their support!

I was experiencing similar problems with the lightbox background, but only in IE, versions <=6.0. To clarify, the images and shadow boxes worked fine, but there was a conflict with my template in IE <= 6 that when the lightbox was brought up the image was shoved to the top and the black background only extended 10-20 pixels from the top. The problem was clearly template based, but to correct the problem would have meant re-writing a lot of css just for IE 6. I made the following changes to the sig.css file and it solved the problem while only slightly altering the view in other browsers.
To get the background to cover the entire screen and not just the top 10-20 pixels, make the following changes.
#lbOverlay { position:absolute; background-position:center; left:0; top:0; height:auto; width:100%; padding:1000px; background-color:#000;cursor:pointer;}
To move the image down so that it is not hugging the top, make the following changes.
#lbCenter, #lbBottom {position:absolute;left:50%;margin-top:50px;overflow:hidden;background-color:#fff;padding-bottom:10px;}
Hope this works for those who are having similar problems.
