i don't get why my caption doesn't appear.
i go around reading that the solution is to change the color of the text to a contraasting one.
well, i looked all over my css files, there's no color: #FFF (=background color)
furthermore, i would have expected there to be atleast an invisible text which if i highlight, it would appear
but it doesn't appear at all

Hey nxtyear!
You putting caption in a wrong place.
It should go in A tag.
something like that - <a href="pict01.jpg" rel="lightbox" title="my caption">
Best, DS -
hi DS, please check my page source,
you will be able to see that the A tag has a title=" " as well -

try this... not sure if it works but i think it might...
instead of<a href="4ds17.gif" rel="lightbox" title="right click to save image">
<img src="4ds17thumb.gif" width="150" height="75" alt="Blackjack, Blackjack Surrender" />
use this<a href="4ds17.gif" rel="lightbox">
<img src="4ds17thumb.gif" width="150" height="75" alt="Blackjack, Blackjack Surrender" title="right click to save image" /> -
If what you're referring to is the captions within the borders of the charts, I can see them (...using FF 1.5.05), but they are grey, not black and bold.
Looking over your CSS versus your HTML, the CSS declares "caption" as an ID (...as follows)
" #imageData #caption{ font-weight: bold; color: #000; } "
where your HTML declares it as a CLASS (...as follows)
" <div class="caption"> "
Your Java which inserts HTML at the bottom of the page also declares it as an ID (...as folows)
" <span id="caption"></span> "
This is the only thing I can see, for the images load well when 'clicked'.
Also, if you are writing strict, every background color needs a color to validate as strict. -
sorry, that div class caption is another caption, which i had made before.
it's located in a different css file which is loaded as well.
i'll try changing that though, so it doesn't get confusing -
what i meant by my caption not appearing is the "title" inside the A tag,
the Lightbox scripts should make the "title" caption appear at the bottom of the image when the image is enlarged.
but it doesn't seem to be doing so -

In the lightbox CSS file, add the color to the area it's needed. See below:
#imageDataContainer{
font: 10px Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;
background-color: #fff;
color: #333;
margin: 0 auto;
line-height: 1.4em;
}
Done. -
hmmm nope :S that didn't do it either :(
-
maybe you are working on the page at the moment but if you look at your code this is what the href looks like:
<a tip="right click to save image" href="1ds17.gif" rel="lightbox">....</a>
try changing tip="right click to save image" to title="right click to save image" -
hmm that can't be. cuz mine reads:
<a href="1ds17.gif" rel="lightbox" title="right click to save image">... </a>
how could it be that it says tip :S? i've checked on IE7b2 and Firefox... -
when i looked at the source code thats what it said...i copied and pasted it straight from your site.
If you use FF and and view Generated Source that is what the source code is.Are you manipulating the DOM in some way that would cause this?
I think the Sweet Titles function you are using is to blame -
wow! i just checked the generated source thing in the developers toolbar ( didn't know that before)
i see what you mean by TIP,
the only thing i can think of is the program called qTip i tried using but didn't work out well...
maybe there's some remains of that stlll left behind, i'll look in to it.
cheers -
your a genius pmac, cheers for the help.

If you set it up right and it still doesn't work, it may be there are collisions between the various scripts you're using.
Have you considered ThickBox? -

I just wrote a long post but then I did something silly and lost it all. I'll just list the points briefly as I am pressed for time now.
1. Gallery link code looks correct for Lightbox to work, so...
2. Add a XHTML 1.0 Transitional doctype to the top of the document.
3. Use W3C validator to fix all XHTML errors.
4. Use SWFObject.js or UFO.js to embed Flash instead of having the invalid mark-up in the XHTML code.
5. Try deleting the three script tags at the bottom of the page and see if the captions work. They may be interfering with Lightbox script.
I know you may be using a template so I don't know if you are able to edit that, but hopefully you can.
Also, definitely check out the Thickbox link posted by Darren Hoyt above. JQuery rocks, hard.
Good luck. -

hi guys
again me and my problem :/
I fixed the problem with banners in addition to this I have even a lightbox on my website BUT STILL THERE IS NO CAPTIONS AT ALL .
any answer would be helpful http://www.top-talent.prv.pl/galeria.htm
P.S
B-I-G thanks for previous comments -
Hi there,
last comment is made more than a year ago, but maybe it will help some other folks.
I was looking up at google for a solution of the same problem I had with the caption (didn't show up), so I found this site.
Didn't read all of your comments but maybe my solution will help you a little bit.
I had in another CSS File following delcaration:
div {text-align: left; position: absolute; }
the Problem was that all common Divs get a position:absolute, so the Lightbox took up this setting and messed it up (correction... the layouter of my page messed it up :).
So thats my solution for the not showing Caption.
I see that you still have the Problem that the Flash Movie is infront of the Lightbox - maybe try to work with the z-index attribute of CSS. This could help..
Cheers
Presssack aka Daniel -
I may have a solution for caption not showing up, it worked for me:
I had the same exact problem and realized that I had a text box on the page with id="caption". It looks like Lightbox uses the id "caption" to output the text. I changed the name of the text box id, saved and reloaded the page. It worked and the captions started to show up.
I imagine that this would be an issue if you have any ids on the page named 'caption'
Hope this helps someone
