here is my body code from the "Custom Listings" to show the thumbnail and link to a bigger image:

<td><a class="modal" href="http://localhost/mywebsite/userdata/{imagelink}"  rel="{handler:'image'}"><img width="50" height="25"  src="http://localhost/mywebsite/userdata/{imagelink}"></a></td>

Any suggestion why the modal is not working ? it's working fine on the normal joomla article

Hi Carloso,

I can't think of any explanation for this. There is nothing I know of in CC that will change the URL like this.

If you put the listing on-line so that we can see it there might be some clues.

Hi Bob,

Sorry maybe i'm not too clear , it's not changing the URL , it's changing the image format , you know it's like if you drag an image file to a notepad , the output is something like that .... like this:

Hi Carloso,

Ah OK - it's treating the image as a text file instead of an image file. I can only that there's something odd with the link you are building. What do you see if you look at the page HTML with View Source?

Bob

ah you are right ..i should've done that

in the html - view source , the " {handler:'image'}" is missing , so it's only rel=""

my guess it is because chronoconnectivity strippped the curly bracket {

Hi Carloso,

Hmmmm . . . that makes sense, the RePublisher sees anything in curly brackets as a possible form value and tries to replace it. I don't have a good solution for that :-(

I wonder if Max has any suggestions?

Bob

it works !!

thanks a lot
