Re: The old highslide.com site

Yes, Hilde helped a lot of people, and was always gracious about doing so. I enjoyed collaborating with her on a variety of customizations. I ended up feeling as if I knew her personally, even though we never met (the road trip from northwest Connecticut to Fredrikstad is a bit much). A lot of the f...

Re: The old highslide.com site

BTW, for those who fondly remember Hilde Tindlund, a.k.a. RoadRash, I'm sorry to report that she died on 27-Jan-2022. :(

Re: The old highslide.com site

Well, I suppose the lack of an answer is, in fact, the answer. Burying the last remains of Highslide JS is certainly not an unreasonable decision. After all, the last substantive update was over a decade ago. But if the API is inaccessible (the ref subdirectory), along with the download links, it's ...

Re: The old highslide.com site

The Highslide JS section on the forum is blocked because, as he writes about the categories, we no longer support this library. I know. I'm the person who suggested that the forum be locked, because it was still attracting posts, long after support had stopped. You have to love the irony. ;) (Under...

The old highslide.com site

Is the old highslide.com site now dead forever, or is there just a temporary problem with it? (Sorry for the off-topic post. I tried asking this in a PM, but got a non-response, telling me to start a thread. The Highslide JS section of the forum is locked - which was actually my suggestion - so ther...

Re: iframe popup scrolling on iOS mobiles

Well, in Safari on a Macbook, none of that helped. My test had no highslide.config.js file at all - it was using just the script defaults. And my calling page and iframed page were both absolutely clean, stripped-down, fully valid HTML 5. So while you may be seeing things working on your iPad, anyon...

Re: iframe popup scrolling on iOS mobiles

Bad news confirmed. I set up a completely stripped-down, all-defaults test case, and it fails in Safari. I even tried some old tricks involving using jQuery to force the browser focus to the iframe after the expander opens, but it made no difference. Some future release of Safari might magically cur...

Re: iframe popup scrolling on iOS mobiles

Bad news. I knew this day would come eventually, the day when a browser change would "break" Highslide JS, and since it's abandonware, it would never be fixed. Remember, the last substantive update to this script dates back over 8 years, and even that was just a minor tweak. It turns out t...

Re: iframe popup scrolling on iOS mobiles

Yes, I did a bit of looking around at your site, and recognized the symptoms of something cobbled together by various hands, over many years. Tough to bring it up to date without doing a lot of "slash and burn!" I don't have an iPad to test with - I've got a Win10 desktop, a Macbook Air la...

Re: iframe popup scrolling on iOS mobiles

One more thing - always use highslide-full.js, rather than any of the subset scripts, like highslide-with-html.js. It will save you all sorts of heartache. Please just trust me on this one.

Re: iframe popup scrolling on iOS mobiles

This is just a hunch, but one thing I'm struck by is that your page is HTML 5 (well, sort of - it's got a bunch of deprecated stuff in it), but your iframed page is HTML 4.01 Transitional, a true dinosaur. And even for HTML 4.01 Transitional (which dates to almost 20 years ago), it's kind of a mess ...

Re: Using Highslide

If you're getting some unexpected CSS changes when you include the highslide.css file, that just indicates that one of the Highslide JS CSS classes is colliding with something in your own CSS. Most of the Highslide JS classes have names that are sufficiently unique, they'd never cause a problem. The...

Re: Duplictate Slide Show Controls Displayed

Ah, a classic problem, caused by the fact that the first letter of CSS stands for "cascading!" You have your own menu.css that applies some styling to the <li> tags, but those are exactly the tags that Highslide JS uses for the navigation controls. Your menu.css needs to be more specific a...

Re: "upload" doesn't work

The Editor required Adobe Flash Player if you wanted to upload images, and most browsers no longer have it. In fact, it won't be long before Flash will be unavailable entirely, in any browser. But even with Flash enabled, I'm getting no response to the Select files to upload button, so I suspect it'...

I'm not really a "Javascript guy," either. But I think you need something like this in your button onclick:

Code: Select all

hs.getExpander().slideshow.pause();
