    The problem occurs on pages plugin (demo page) and on other web sites (also my)

    Hi,

    on Chrome on OSX and on Windows I have no problems using the plugin.
    I will set up a virtual machine with Ubuntu 10.04 and test later today. Don’t know what I can do about a browser misbehaving on one operating system only, though.

    Best regards,

    Hi again,
    I just tested my website with Chrome 5.0.342.9 on Ubuntu 10.04 with no problems whatsoever.
    I did a clean install of Ubuntu and downloaded the Chrome package from google.com.

    I sent this page to other friends with linux.
    Everyone had the same problem on Chrome, and only Chrome !,with Opera and Firefox, everything works OK (with Linux).
    Strange.

    Hi,
    I have no idea what might go wrong when you are surfing the site, but in my virtualbox, the site is working without problems:

    Maybe you could try downloading Virtualbox, install an Ubuntu with the Debian package of Chrome and take a look if it works?

    Hi,

    JQUERY COLORBOX is not working on both my Google Chrome (version 5.0.375.125) and IE8 running on Windows XP SP3.

    First I suspected that it was related to some Extensions I installed on Google Chrome but when I asked a (developper) friend and he got the same result on he’s station I tested also in my different Internet Explorer versions (IE8, IE7, IE6) to found out that it is working ONLY in Firefox (from what I know).

    This is the test page:
    – https://www.techotronic.de/plugins/jquery-colorbox/colorbox-multiple-images-demo/

    Browsers running on Windows XP SP3:
    – Mozilla Firefox 3.6.3 = OK.
    – Google Chrome 5.0.375.125 = Not working.
    – Internet Explorer 8.0.6001.18702 = Not working.
    – IE7 (running on IE8 compatibility view) = Not working.
    – IE6 & IE7 running on IETester = Not running

    On IETester I got those error messages:
    Javascript error on line #1 : “jQuery is undefined”.
    JavaScript error on line #2 : “Object does not support this property or method”

    You can download IETester here : https://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/IETester/HomePage

    PS: I had to uninstall the plugin and use the jQuery in my theme. Even then I got a small glitch related to the relative image path (../img/) that I had to change for a universal image path (http… …/img/) to work in my theme.

    Best regards

    Hi,
    the reason why the plugin wasn’t working on my site today was totally different.

    I installed WordPress 3 and a new version of W3 Total Cache yesterday and it seems that both Google Chrome and Internet Explorer do not like the “non-blocking JavaScript” option that W3TC provides.

    Since I use only FireFox to browse the web, I didn’t realize that the plugin wasn’t working any more on my site for any other browser.

    This is fixed now.
    Cheers,
    Arne

    I still have this problem. Latest wordpress, nextgen gallery, jquery and W3 cache. Every other browser works, except google chrome for osx.

    It loads one picture and then it cannot load the rest. Example gallery

    Hi,
    I am experiencing the exact same issue here, with Chrome 5 and Windows XP. Same annoying “one image showing” only.
    Latest WP and latest version of the plugin.

    It is a javascript issue, because when I look into the generated code of the cbox, I can see the URL of the image but the cbox window is rendering it wrongly thinking height and width are null (or 0, I don’t know exactly).
    Are you still working on this fix Arne?

    Cheers,
    Nicolas.

    This will get fixed as soon as the plugin author upgrades the version of jquery.colorbox.js to the latest. See note on 2010-06-21: https://github.com/jackmoore/colorbox/commits/master/colorbox/jquery.colorbox.js (note: this links to the jQuery plugin that this WordPress plugin implements; it’s a different author)

    In fact, there are a lot of things posted here which pertain to the code that this plugin IMPLEMENTS, but does not pertain to the plugin itself. Not that it’s a bad idea to post issues here … just wanted others to be aware that the plugin author and the author of the jQuery plugin are 2 different people working on 2 different projects.

    oh, and if you gotta have this fixed right this minute:

    1. go to https://github.com/jackmoore/colorbox/raw/master/colorbox/jquery.colorbox-min.js
    2. copy all of it
    3. go to https://yoursite.com/wp-admin/plugin-editor.php?file=jquery-colorbox/js/jquery.colorbox-min.js&plugin=jquery-colorbox/jquery-colorbox.php
    4. highlight all of the code there
    5. paste in the stuff you copied
    6. click Update File

    i doubt you’ll screw it up, but if it blows up, just reinstall the plugin.

    at the same time, my advice is provided with no warrantee, not even the implied warrant of merchantability, etc. etc. don’t sue me.

    Hi,
    currently, I am swamped at work, but I’ll release a plugin version with a new colorbox version soon, I promise.
    Cheers,
    Arne

    Thanks m8! I’m eagerly waiting for the new release ??

    oh, and if you gotta have this fixed right this minute:

    this worked great for me.

    I just updated my plugin, now the Colorbox library 1.3.9 is included.

    Hope that solves your problems.
    Cheers,
    Arne
