Peter,
This is a great extension, but I can't seem to get it to work on our site.
I've tried using the {modal} markup as well as <a class="modal">.
The file I wish to open is just a simple HTML in another folder. It is not connected to any Joomla content. I've tried relative and absolute links, but it always opens in a new window/tab, not as a DIV popup.
See the SaaS Strategy video link in the lower right:
vps3575.inmotionhosting.com/~longju5/
For Modal settings I have the template set to NONE.
Within the Joomla code:
{modal url=http://vps3575.inmotionhosting.com/~longju5/videos/saas-video.htm|type=fancybox|overlay_opacity=100}<img src="images/saas-video-preview.png" border="0" />{/modal}
The current source resolves to:
<a href="http://vps3575.inmotionhosting.com/~longju5/videos/saas-video.htm?ml=1&mlt=system&tmpl=component" target="_blank" rev="ml" class="nn_fancybox" rel="{overlayOpacity:100}"><img src="/~longju5/images/saas-video-preview.png" border="0" /></a>
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.
