hope to receive help, i see a lot of question but very few answer... hope this time things are different  :-\

i installed allvideo 2.4 and it works great with ff, i tried it with ie7 and i receive an error message that tell ie7 can't load the page! i know that ie sucks but it is the most popular browser so i can't think not to optimize my site also for ie (i have to sell products and if the most of the people out there can't see my site what can i sell???)

i hope you developers comes in our rescue to solve this issue... please!!!!!

I was all set to launch a new site this week that I spent months developing, and I also found that ALLVideos 2.4 Plugin had serious issues with IE 7 and I got errors  when my IE 6 and 7 users tried to open a page with a Youtube video being displayed by AllVideos 2.4 plugin.

I FOUND A SOLUTION TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE FOR THE TWO ROCKETTHEME TEMPLATES RT_VORTEX and SPORTICUS v 2.0 AS THEY BOTH USE JS.SLIMBOX.JS CODE AND IT CONFLICTS WITH ALLVIDEOS PLUG-IN and IE 7

Here is the solution:   :D

If you are using a template with slimbox code in it, then there will most likely be a conflict which causes this error in IE 7 if you are using the AllVideos plugin.

To fix this issue do the following:

1. What template are you using? If you are using a RockeTheme template such as RT-VORTEX or Sporticus v2.0, or any template from any other template provider that uses js.slimbox.js code (Slimbox) in the templates you have to find the line in the template index.php and remove the line with the slimbox code.

Here is the solution that I used to cure this issue for RT-VORTEX and SPORTICUS v 2.0:

1. I opened my template index.php file: /templates/rt_sporticus_news/index.php

I did  a search for this line:
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/<?php echo $mainframe->getTemplate(); ?>/js/slimbox.js"></script>

I removed the above line from the index.php file that had the js.slimbox.js code in it, as I am not using the slimbox feature at all. And even if I did use slimbox, playing the videos in both browsers correctly is more important to me and my members and visitors than anything that I could possibly think of that needs slimbox on my sites.

2. Click Save.  THE ISSUE WILL NOW BE FIXED.

Go to Internet Explorer 7, and open the site and find a page with an AllVideos Youtube video embedded in the article or page and it should open and play without the error.  I tried my sites and made sure on a number of pages and it appears to have cured the problem.

If you need more information for those people using RocketTheme templates go to this thread:

www.rockettheme.com/option,com_smf/Itemid,190/topic,6655.0/

This is the discussion thread that helped me resolve this major problem, which now seems so trivial, as I decided to get proactive and did not want to have to rely on Fotis to find the solution. I feel that his time is probably best spent creating cool extensions and not trying to resolve every possible template issue.

I have found that MOST cases of issues with plug-ins can be resolved by getting proactive and going to the template makers Forum site and do a thorough check to see if anyone else has had the same issue with a plug-in or extension and a specific template, and then usually someone has found a solution and has posted the fix. Also, I check the joomla.org forums to see if the same answers are there.

I am certain that there are some people that are using Joomlart.com templates and having the same issues, and if so, they will probably find the same issue of slimbox code conflicts exists in some of their templates and the solution for those templates is on their site forum, as I do know a number of templates from JoomlArt.com use slimbox code in them.

Hope this helps resolve this IE 7 error issue for everyone with this problem, because Allvideos plug-in is a great solution for most every type of video display needs.

thanks randy for the solution, unfortunately i have a lot of slimbox-ed image so i don't want to rebuild my site from scratch.

i noticed that with other filetypes allvideo plugins works very well, for youtube video solved in this way. i take the video i need with a program that download it on myt hd in flv format so i simply put it on my host and publish it wherever i want. not so beautiful solution but it works, and this is what i need.

thanks

peace!

so is youtube what gives this error? if it was on dropshots or something else, it would work?

ie sucks, thank you for the solution, ive noticed the error today as iam using firefox mostly, but today i said the plugins and components are nice n all but lets check compatibility with ol IE.

thanks again

I tried using the fix of removing <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $mosConfig_live_site;?>/templates/<?php echo $mainframe->getTemplate(); ?>/js/slimbox.js"></script> from my Vortex template, however I still get a blank box in IE6, but it works fine in Firefox. Any other ideas I can try?

I've still got this error with IE6 & 7.
Don't know if my JA_Zibal template is causing the error though. Searched through the index.php file of the template but no slimbox mentioned there...

Could anyone please help me with this before 30th july? Cause i'll need the youtube function for when i'm on holiday (the site is my blog).

Thanks a lot!
My site is www.almelo-on-tour.nl by the way  ;)

NOTE: When i put another entry of video code, i.e. {google}video_id{/google}, then the error message doesn't appear in IE6 or 7, and loads the page with no errors!!

So somewhere in the allvideo plugin MUST be the error, cause when i only put one video in my content, it almost always gives the error msg.

Well i've been having this error msg as well, and have tested it thoroughly, when it happens and when it doesn't.

It seems that when a youtube movie is embedded in the page, it only works when there is no popup image available.. which is not only in the Simple Image Gallery, but also in the JCE Editor.

II found this out that when looking on my frontpage, with youtube and an image which popups through the JCE, the error message occured. When i unpublished the content item from the frontpage, the error message in IE7 was gone...
Also when i made the image just a normal image and took away the lightbox popup, the error was gone.


So i think i can almost certainly say that the allvideo plugin does not work on the same page as a "slimbox" or "lightbox" image.

Hopefully the coders and progammers can do something with this and finally release a patch..

For the people who have this same problem please reply, or leave a message how YOU solved it!

i have the same problem, and it is really the most important thing for me, cause i have an video news site.

having the same issue!  please help

was working, then added some pics via simple image gallery and now not working...but have both working on another page in site...

...

I have a similar problem, seems to be with the load of some pieces of code, before the head of the template, I tried with removing slimbox.js but doesn't work, but I fixed removing the rokzoom.js from the template, seems like the rokzoom had a conflict with something (cuz I try my whole site with another template and works well). Instead use the rokzoom now I'm using SIG and its better for me.

I'm using a rockettheme template (elemental) with js's like slimbox, rokzoom, etc. But the way to fix the problem was trying without js's and then putting one by one, until find out which was the one that make the conflict.

Now my site works well in Ie6, Ie7 and FF.
